Comparison is best done at the same time they played the matches. Why will I be comparing someone's performance in 2018 with another's performance in 2021? Is it Messi's fault that he dragged his team to qualification when Ronaldo was being eliminated? Or you think if he had not scored all those goals or assisted against Man Utd and Napoli, Barca would have qualified?

Immediately after CR vs Atletico game, Messi himself had a super game against Lyon where he delivered 2 goals and 2 assists to put Barca through the tie. Without that input Barca would have been eliminated as well.



Why do u guys have 2 mouths... Ronaldos performance against atletico is the best performance in a game in the CL in 3 seasons ...lyons or man u game wasn't a challenge... we are talking about the best defense in football, an A list team going to turn with a commanding lead 2.0 , only to crash out due to a player ( Ronaldo) scoring all 3 goals...mention one player that has done that in the past 3 seasons in the CL ... u are calling lyon and a weak man u side

Lol...lets wait till messi is 36... at 33 ronaldo was banging in triple of what messi banged at 33 and winning the CL... messi is even falling hand, scoring 4 penalties out of 5 of his CL goals this campaign...thats quite unbelievable of the messi I know
Then Ronaldo should be ashamed of himself cause all he is doing is catch up....Messi at 33 is competing on goal levels with a 36year old striker who has played more champions League matches....
Ronaldo was banging triple but still has just 14 champions League goals more than Messi..... what's your point....Messi hasn't won the champions League in almost 6years yet Mr back to back is just one champions League trophy clear.....so, ask urself who is doing catch up and who is diminishing

Hmm, almost a fair point from you, but then I remember that when the comparison started in 2007 and a prime Ronaldo initially had the edge, no one put up a defence of Messi saying he was 2 and a half years younger and therefore still immature. In the Man U vs Barca matches, the comparisons were straight head-on between the two with no regards for age (Messi was 19 and Ronaldo was 22). It is therefore inevitable that the same narrative would be maintained throughout and any attempt to shift goalposts resisted!

Are people still not also comparing Ibrahimovic and Ronaldo in the Serie A despite Zlatan being 3 years older?


Haaland and mbappe are being compared now even with age difference... ur narrative is different... 18 yrs , 19yrs can play outstanding games....we wudnt b surprised at that , but seeing a 36 37 38 Yr old do that will b magical...peke won the world cup at 17... mbappe at 19 was tormenting opponents at the world cup ...de Lima won the balon dor at age 19 .... no player has win balon dor at 34 , even nomination is a huge challenge... most players retire at that age... u wanna compare a 19 Yr old to a 36 Yr old

Why was Ronaldo eliminated by Lyon?...... Atlético was just stupid....they played shit and just went to defend their goal lead..... thesame Atletico dat played trash against Chelsea dis season losing 0-1
Did you even watch the analysis of pundits

Why was he eliminated by Porto with a disastrous performance??.... Porto clearly went to defend and also score

Ronaldo and Juve got the weakest team from the weakest league(primeira division) in the champions League plus they went down to 10men, yet Ronaldo was nowhere to be found....Zero goals home and away .....

Oga stop these terrible lies abeg. Ronaldo at 33 was at Juventus nd was eliminated by Ajax. At age 33 a 36yrs old Fabio Quagliarella outclassed nd outshined him in becoming d top scorer in serie a. Abi u dey suffer from amnesia?

Go back to school or go take up a dictionary to help yourself with the word outclassed cos u certainly don't know the meaning... what was the goal difference between both...it was 5 ... it was Ronaldos first season in the league ,trying to adjust to a new league and u compare him with someone that has played in serie a all his career ... have u ever heard of a player that won top scorer in a league in his first season ?? Its certain u are still new in football... to make it worse, a 33 yr old nearing the end of his career... or u think Messi will win top scorer in his first season if he leaves barca?? Do u guys think at all before typing?? The same quagierella that played for juve and never had an impact during their glory years ... so y dint he challenge the following season...that is when u bring the word outclass , cos Ronaldo outclassed him the following season

But the same Ronaldo destroyed ur messi and barca in their backyard this season... so man u and lyon were not foolish because its messi and barca that won, according to u it was his brilliance...but Ronaldo wasn't his brilliance that knocked atletico out but atleticos foolishness...

K.Mbappe an E.B Halland has taken over the mantle. but hunestly its a previlge to have watch both L.messi and C.Ronaldo dismantle and set football records in almost two decades and counting.i don't think any one will match or better any of them in this century.

I say this with a tear in my eye. I salute these 2 guys and what they've brought to the game and to our screens for the past decade and a half. Their consistency in the game, their dedication to getting better, their voracious appetite to win, for all the joy they brought to billions of fans all over the world. Older generations boast of watching Pele, cruyff and maradona, I can say with satisfaction that I got to watch messi and ronaldo in my time. We'll never see another like them and no one will replace them in our memories and in history.
they're replaceable. Don't wish football this bad luck abeg. Other generations will take about other legends too. Reference will be made to both Ronaldo and Messi no doubt but THEY'RE REPLACEABLE

Messi has failed to even reach the Champions League final without xavi or iniesta. Now without Suarez he cant even reach Quarter finals. How do his fans dare to say that ronaldo has been carried.

He should be kind enough to tell us the quality of the opponents that eliminated Juve and the teams Barcelona have faced in the last 3years. juve is very lucky with draws but still struggle to get passed teams like ajax, Porto and Lyon. Barcelona have been knocked out by Liverpool, PSG & Bayern in 3 of the last 4years and these teams come in as favourites except for their unfortunate exit in Rome which rarely happens.
If juve can't face Porto, Lyon & Ajax.....imagine if the had faced Bayern, PSG & Liverpool all these years.
