5. Messi breaks Barcelona scoring record

Barcelona 5-3 Granada, 20 March 2012

Messi broke Barcelona's goalscoring record at the age of 24 - the only way he knows how, with a hat-trick.

He equalled Cesar Rodriguez's record of 232 goals with his first against Granada, broke it with his second and extended the record with the third.

Messi, now 32, is on 627 Barcelona goals and counting (when La Liga restarts) - almost 400 clear of anybody else.

Even Ronaldo once said, I think 2018 and I quote

"I thank the god of soccer, Messi and the God of my god of soccer, Jesus... If not for the creator and the wonderful creature, Messi, I would still be serving coffee in a bar now.. I didn't go to school coz I am a drop out and no good job will come my way except coffee shop.. Thank God Messi existed, his existence brought me to life. Thank you messi", Says Ronaldo.

Ronaldo destroyed Bayern Munich... With 9 goals in 8 apps.. That's against the 4x best goalie of the year..


Ronaldo destroyed juventus... 9 apps with 10 goals..
Same Goalie with 5x world's best goalie of the year..


At. Madrid are yet to concede A hatrivk in the last 2 decades.. But who did That? CR7 .. netting 4 hattricks with 4 goals from direct free-kick..

Juventus 3-0 At. Madrid
Real Madrid 3-0 At. Madrid
Sweden 2-3 Portugal.. Go watch those games and see how Ronaldo single-handedly destroyed them.. Those teams aren't Getafe or malloca or eiber, they are top teams

Although I like Messi for his remarkable talent, it's Cristiano Ronaldo that strikes me the most. He's the complete player. He's a role model for young players everywhere for his dedication to hardwork, his never-say-die attitude, and the resolve to keep getting better. If only Ronaldo had stayed at Real Madrid...
I am willing.

I'm tired of This two Rivals mesi Ronaldo. Another he goat should surface.

Seunfretty:
And to those saying he should leave barca ...pls wats son special about other leagues ....we talking about how good a player his and pple keep talking of clubs......if dey should ask every player in Juventus secretly as we talk which player dey would ave preferred in there team between messi and ronaldo do you tink dey will pick Ronaldo ....CR7 is contributing so less to there team at this moment that am sure the only reason his getting into the first team is cos of his prize tag and fame....dybala is far ahead in that team...he shot himself in the foot going to juve and that's one of the things that would make messi overshadow him highly in their remaining few years of play ....do you tink anybody will fucking care which of the two never left a particular club through out his carrier decades from now?...the only thing pple will debate in the next 10years is who won more titles and best player and am sorry messi will still always be ahead ...

7. Messi wins World Cup golden ball

Germany 1-0 Argentina, 13 July 2014

In theory this should have been one of Messi's greatest moments - being named the best player in a World Cup. His lack of a senior international trophy (he won the 2008 Olympics) is sometimes held against him in debates on the greatest player of all time.

But it was a strange decision, with many observers thinking he had underwhelmed in the knockout rounds, having scored four goals in the group stages. He was disappointing too in the final defeat by Germany.

Even then-Fifa president Sepp Blatter said he was "a little bit surprised" and Argentina legend Diego Maradona called the decision "unfair".

That final defeat in Brazil may be the closest he ever comes to winning the World Cup as they went out in the quarter-finals four years later in Russia, despite his memorable goal against Nigeria.

Messi briefly retired from international football in 2016 after losing in the Copa America final for the third time, and again considered his future after the 2018 World Cup but he is still going on.

HITsquad:
Someone said if Messi had taken all the PK he left for his teammates, and all assists he chose to make instead of selfishly going for goals... that he would be the highest scorer in champions league history!

The humble GOAT!

Lol, Be very careful what you asking for:

Go watch below games where Messi single handedly destroyed big teams:

Quadruple

vs Arsenal 09/10
vs Valencia 11/12

Hattricks

vs R Madrid 06/07
vs R Madrid 13/14
vs At Madrid 10/11
vs At Madrid 11/12
vs Valencia 09/10
vs Manchester City 16/17
vs Brazil 2012
vs Switzerland 2013

Braces

vs R.Madrid UCL semifinal 10/11
vs B.Munich UCL semifinal 14/15
vs Juventus 17/18
vs Chelsea 17/18
vs R.Madrid 11/12 supercup final
vs R.Madrid 12/13
vs R.Madrid 16/17
vs Liverpool 18/19
vs Manutd 18/19
vs AC Milan 13/14

And many more others I cant even remember. Do the above teams look like Eibar and Getafe to you? I would not have even condescended to engage with you but for the impressionable peeps who can be misled to believe your false submissions.

Messi has a far greater number of iconic performances than CR7 against all kinds of opposition. It is for this reason he has the highest man of the match awards in football since 2008. This is a fact that your sentiments cannot supersede.

OfficialJayy:


Ronaldo is the highest goal scorer in champions league history and HE HAS THE HIGHEST NUMBER OF ASSISTS ALSO.. so tell me if he selfishly went for goals himself instead of assisting his team mates, how many goals do you think he would have??

You can argue about other things, but dont compare messi and ronaldo when it comes to champions league.. Ronaldo is called Mr. champions league for a reason
