The legendary debate of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo has always been the centre of every football discussion all over the world for nearly two decades. These two football living legends for the past 15 years plus, have consistently played at a high level. Together, these two players have accumulated a whopping 79 trophies and 12 Ballon d’Or awards.
Manchester City winger Jack Grealish recently got involved in this discussion while participating in a ‘this or that’ challenge on TikTok. The star faced several questions. However, the most difficult question came when he had to choose between Messi and Ronaldo.
From the video, Grealish got stuck at this question, as he clasped his hands and furrowed his brow while pondering on the question. After much rumination, the England international leaned towards Messi over Ronaldo.
The Messi and Ronaldo debate is a topic that is still passionately argued on, even though both players are in the latter stages of their careers and no longer competing in European leagues.
It however seems that Barcelona legend Lionel Messi has finally edged it, in the eyes of many.
