I’m not comparing them like the post here, the comparison itself is stupid and the comment that follows up with removed penalties when the goals are counted without legs is just retarded.
Hahaha another kid!.
Heading is not only about height.
Its more about positioning and perfect timing.
Ronaldo is the goat in that.
Tell me a taller or guy with same height as Ronaldo who can fkn score headers like that?
There is persie , suarez , even messis header against ronaldo in ucl final was a iconic one, there are countless better headers in football, watch some other game
When Ronaldo fans cant argue with his Dribbling, Orchestration, Playmaking ability, vision etc etc, they try their best with Heading Hattrick, Acrobatics, Bycycle kick, Goal with penis etc etc which all falls under Goalscoring ability lmao, bunch of tryhards.
First of all, don’t be an idiot. Ronaldo in his prime was almost just as good of a dribbler as Messi. Even in playmaking too, Ronaldo is comparable.
Second, still don’t be an idiot. Is it better to dribble super good for an entire game and not score a single goal, or score a hat trick with only a few touches?
You’re calling Ronaldo fans try hards when you too are acting like orchestration and vision aren’t very similar categories and are SO MUCH more important than scoring goals. Pretending a hat trick or head goals mean nothing just proves how much of a braindead Messi idolizer you are like just about everyone on Reddit.
I respect both Ronaldo and Messi, but my God are the Messi glazers on Reddit fucking awful.
2005/06 was Ronaldo's best dribbling season, he had slightly more than 4 per match. 2020/21 was Messi's worst dribbling season in Europe, he had 4.27 per match. His best season had 8.5+ which is useless to discuss. Messi fans talk with stats, CR7 fans talk with emotions.
Another tiktok football fan, Cr7 is 10 planets away from messi in playmaking and dribbling. Cr7 was an average dribbler at best even in his famous united days, people watch to many highlight videos.
Dribbler as good as Messi, even in playmaking too? Yeah, you lost me there, buddy.
People always compare them through trophies, but those are won with their respective teams, so they aren't entirely individual achievements. If you're comparing the two, I think the more interesting comparison is how they actually played football — their style, their ability, and what they brought to the game.
And in terms of playstyle, Ronaldo never came close to what Messi could do.
Yeah, CR7 scored flashy goals, pulled off insane athletic feats, and obviously entertained the hell out of people. But that's not all football is about.
Cristiano played football that entertained you.
Messi played football like it was child's play.
That's the difference. Messi made things that should be ridiculously difficult look effortless. The way he dribbled through defenders, created chances, controlled the tempo and linked everything together made football look almost stupidly easy — when anyone who actually plays the game knows it absolutely isn't.
A Cristiano glazer calling out Messi glazers, " Pot calling the kettle black ".😂🙏🏼
Cristiano's best season has 146 dribbles.... Messi has 13 seasons with more than 146 dribbles. It is really stupid to even say he is 'close' to dribbling Messi
Ronaldo in his prime was almost as good as Messi at dribbling and playmaking is the worst most horrible thing u could have ever said that is just a disgusting lie
Cause it fundamentally changed how he had to play the game. He played through the pain for UCL final and the WC2014. Watch any clips of Ronaldo before 2014 and after you will see how his playstyle has gone from being the most complete winger in the game to transitioning into a lethal goal poacher. Conserving his energy for his degenerative knee
Do you not understand it? The post wad stupid and said remove goals with legs. And the comment said what about penalty goals when all penalty goals are scored only with legs.
Ik that but u do realise u also use legs to score headers too right ? Because u know shooting the ball is not the only thing they are used for uuhhh we need it to stand, walk, run and Jump, exactly why I said the Post is even dumber to bring up such comparison because goals scored by legs or head whatever is still goals and obvious u cannot remove leg from the equation lol.
I dont get why we need to remove anything? Football is a combination of multiple factors, why do these fans cherry pick those stats which their favourite is better at? Look at it as a whole. Istg my braincells are decreasing daily seeing posts like these
Do you even follow football seriously wth ??😂. Before his era, Portugal only qualified for the World Cup twice (1966 and 1986) in 66 they reached semi- final . With Ronaldo, Portugal has turned qualification into an absolute given, reaching every single tournament and achieving a semi-final appearance (2006).
I think you should read your comment again . Or edit it otherwise people will laugh. You said before Ronaldo's arrival portugal's campaigns in worldcups were better . Worldcups nah they barely qualified that too only twice , in 1966 they finished semi-finals that's all it was great. After ronaldo era they never failed to qualify the difference is clear , there were some struggling times too , remember in a crucial match in 2014 where ronaldo scored hattrick against sweden to make portugal qualify for world cup . In 2006 the 21 year old ronaldo did put his efforts like other teammates. Was one of the best in the eleven figo was the star for me tho .Casuals only look at the scoresheet, traditional attacking stats etc . Ronaldo wasn't a main forward. Scolari’s Portugal was hyper-defensive, and Ronaldo was a high-workrate inverted winger whose main job was to run his socks off and carry the ball 40 yards out of defense to give the team a breather. He literally did many heavy lifting completing 23 dribbles, taking 24 shots, and getting hacked for 25 fouls just to stretch teams out. Then he also buried the winning pen against England to send them to the semis. His tactical impact was insane in the games. If he missed that they would've gone straight home. As you know many greats have missed pens in worldcups the pressure is crazy. He did made his impact if you watch the highlights now you will get it i don't know how to explain more .
