It’s interesting to note that both Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi have a large following around the world, and these fans regularly argue over who is the best.

Messi is the leader with seven Ballon d’Or awards out of the two stars’ total of 12. They have also been instrumental in helping their respective teams win the UEFA Champions League, the best club competition in the world.

The only major championship these two players have not yet captured is the World Cup, and they will each have another chance when play gets underway in Qatar for the 2022 edition.
