Messi has entered the finals of various tournaments but never won an International trophy while his competitor, Ronaldo, led his Portugal side to win the 2016 European Championship. With Real Madrid, Ronaldo won 15 trophies, including two La Liga titles and is the only footballer to reach 30 goals in six consecutive La Liga seasons.

He has been prolific and showcased some exceptional performances for Real Madrid and Manchester United over the years and now for Juventus. 

Lionel Messi- ‘Magician’ of the game

Although both Ronaldo and Messi are top players of the game, still Ronaldo doesn’t possess Messi’s magic. The Argentine-born player has five Ballon d'Or awards under his belt. 

Messi is a magician; the way he dribbles the ball is considered to the best in the game. Although Ronaldo’s physical ability always bring him into limelight but he can’t go ahead of Messi’s accuracy and precision is far better as he passes and shoots the ball more accurately.
