Look away Ronaldo fans, Lionel Messi is the greatest
It’s time to face reality. That guy called Lionel Messi is G. O. A. T. He’s greater than Pele and Maradona combined (Yes, I’m home. Come and beat me).
He’s yet to win the World Cup. He hasn’t won Copa America. Yes. But billions people will snub sleep and skip meals to watch him play.
Those privileged to experience Messi during last night’s El Clasico have no regrets.

At a point in the game, it came down to superhuman Cristiano Ronaldo to decide the game. But he couldn’t. So inhuman Messi showed who is boss.
Real Madrid could go on to win La Liga this season. Taken. But the debate over whether or not Ronaldo is better than Messi should be laid to rest.

Messi is the best player to walk the earth. No apologies to Ronaldo fans.
Their stats are pretty close, no doubt.
But Messi stands out.
