8 reasons why Christiano Ronaldo is better than messi
Ronaldo or Messi. Like Maradona or Pele before them, it is the argument for the ages when it comes to modern football fans. Both players score more goals in one season than most enjoy in a whole career and comparing them on this alone can sometimes be a fruitless task. Getting beyond those initial goal numbers is the key, and helps to show why Ronaldo, and not Messi, is the fun packed player that any team cannot do without. I mean, why would you want the modern day sensible man’s Pele when you can have the excitement and unpredictability of 2014’s Maradona? Exactly.

8. Ronaldo Has More International Goals

When it comes to Lionel Messi and his national team, it rarely “works” – the polar opposite of the kind of impact Ronaldo has had for Portugal. This is most notably obvious when the goals column is compared. Messi has hit the back of the net 37 times in 83 caps and as you’ll find out, most of these have not been in games that count for much. Ronaldo, on the other hand, is one off his half century (49 goals) in 110 caps, and four of his most recent goals directly influenced his country’s path into the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.




7. Ronaldo Scores More Headers

To be considered the best player of this or any generation, one must have a set of tools that makes you a threat in any position – something that Cristiano Ronaldo has when goals are concerned. This is especially the case when in the air, where he has developed a leap that an Olympic gymnast would be proud of. It has meant scoring SIX TIMES as many headed goals as his arch nemesis. As of the end of the 2014 La Liga seasons winds down, the Portuguese superstar has scored 60 of his goals with his head compared to Messi’s 14.






6. Ronaldo is Better on the World Stage

It’s the eve of the biggest tournament on the planet and Messi still can’t profess to have scored even half as many goals as Ronaldo in major international tournaments. Across 24 games in either the European Championship or World Cup, Portugal’s favourite son has scored a total of eight goals. In comparison, the Argentinean has three goals in 18 games across the Copa America and World Cup.
