Messi vs Ronaldo


In the modern football of 21-st century football fans have a doubt between Messi or Ronaldo and their priority and rivalry in thir appearences.

  • Lionel AndrĂ©s Messi Cuccittini is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a forward and captains both Spanish club Barcelona and the Argentina national team.Born;24 June 1987 (age 33 years) He is a player of F.C Barcelona with registered position as RWF.

while

  •  Cristiano Ronaldo dos Santos Aveiro is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as a forward for Serie A club Juventus and captains the Portugal national team.Born;5 February 1985 (age 35 years)With his registered position as CF/LWF.

  • What really made this rivalry catch fire was their incredible, unprecedented goalscoring rates, with both Messi and Ronaldo averaging more than one goal every game at their peaks. During the 9 years Ronaldo spent at Real Madrid, Messi and Ronaldo both scored a goal every 85 minutes in all competitions. The adjacency of their goalscoring - matching each other blow for blow - has been astounding over the years.

Over their entire careers, it's Messi who edges it. Messi has scored 0.81 goals per game, whereas Ronaldo has scored 0.72 goals per game. If we drill down into goals per minutes, it's a similar story; Messi scores a goal every 100 minutes, and Ronaldo scores a goal every 112 minutes.

Ronaldo still has more all time career goals than Messi though (Ronaldo has 726 career goals and Messi has 699 career goals), but Ronaldo has played 143 more games over his career than Messi has.


  • When it comes to assists, there's only one winner. Lionel Messi's playmaking abilities are right up there with the very best, and he has the numbers to prove it.

Messi has racked up an impressive 292 assists in 860 career appearances, compared to Ronaldo's 215 assists in 1003 games.

However, because Messi has a clear ascendancy when it comes to assists, this often leads people to fall into the trap of underestimating Ronaldo's proficiency in this area. Ronaldo's assist numbers are still extremely impressive compared to the other mere mortals that play the beautiful game.

In fact, Ronaldo has the Champions League record, with 39 assists to Messi's 33 assists - granted Ronaldo has played 34 more matches than Messi, but this is still an impressive tally.


  • The passing stats point to a clear winner in this category; Lionel Messi. But again, Ronaldo's passing abilities are often underestimated.

In the league and Champions League since 2009/10, Messi has made 1073 key passes in 477 appearances, whilst Ronaldo has made 788 key passes in 463 appearances.

Messi also dominates the throughball statistics, making 240 successful throughballs in that same time period, compared to Ronaldo's 52 successful throughballs.

Although Messi's passing numbers are clearly superior, Ronaldo's are still impressive. It's also likely that his passing stats would have been significantly higher before 2009 when he was more involved in the creative build-up play.

Messi has won the prestigious Ballon d'Or a record six times while Ronaldo has pocketed five.
