Brazilian Legend, Pele chooses his G.O.A.T between Ronaldo and Messi
Brazilian legend and three-time World Cup winner, Pele, has finally settled the old debate surrounding the greatest footballer discussion between Cristiano Ronaldo and his long-time rival Lionel Messi.
Brazil legend was rating the current football poster-boys – Ronaldo, Messi and Neymar – on performances and interestingly he chose the Barcelona ace as the most complete player he would have preferred to play with.
“I think of Leo Messi,” he told Gazzetta dello Sport when asked who he would most like to play alongside.
“He is a skilled player, gives assists, passes, scores, dribbles well. If we were in the team together, the opponents should worry about two players, not just one! Today, Messi is the most complete player,” the 79-year-old said added.
Messi and Ronaldo have both dominated the football stage for over one decade, breaking records and amassing awards include five pairs of Ballon D’or gongs to their names each.
Neymar, on the other hand, has been tipped as the potential image of the game after the Argentine star and Portuguese forward.
