Ronaldo: 'Messi is not better than me'

The conversation between Cristiano Ronaldo and journalist Piers Morgan has once again stirred up the football world, when the Portuguese superstar rejected the idea that Lionel Messi is better than him.

Ronaldo continues to have a conversation that promises to reveal many aspects with Morgan.

In the trailer released on the night of November 3, Ronaldo replied: "Is Messi better than me? I disagree. I don't want to be humble," when asked about former teammate Wayne Rooney's comment that Messi is better than him.

This is the reunion between Ronaldo and Piers Morgan, after a stormy interview at the end of 2022, when CR7 left MU in a noisy way. However, Morgan described this conversation as "the most intimate interview ever", focusing more on personal perspectives instead of off-field controversies.

Over the past two decades, the race between Ronaldo and Messi has become a symbol of modern football. The two have met 36 times in official tournaments, with Ronaldo winning 11 matches, losing 16 and drawing 9. The most recent confrontation took place in the 2020/21 Champions League, when Juventus beat Barcelona 3-0.

Despite the fierce competition, Ronaldo has never denied his rival's talent. In a 2022 conversation with Morgan himself, he said: "Messi is an extraordinary player, full of magic. We shared the stage for 16 years, a wonderful time. I respect him as a great colleague."

Ronaldo is still in impressive form at Al Nassr, while Messi is shining brightly at Inter Miami. The two may never meet again on the pitch, but the debate about "who is greater" will surely continue for many years to come.

Ronaldo jumps up and down to celebrate his goal. Striker Cristiano Ronaldo had a funny celebration after scoring a double against Al Fayha in round 7 of the Saudi Pro League in the early morning of November 2.
