Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are both currently in Qatar to play in what will be their last World Cup. One of them may return to the country with the trophy in his suitcases. In any case, this will be the last opportunity to see these two footballing legends on the world stage. For more than ten years, the two men have shared the most prestigious titles and fueled the endless debate around the best footballer of all time.
But between them, it is mutual respect that reigns as the Portuguese recently reminded us. “He’s an extraordinary, magical, top player,” Ronaldo said in an interview with Pires Morgan. “We’ve shared the stage for 16 years, imagine, 16 years. So I have a great relationship with him. […] It’s like a teammate. He’s a guy I really respect. »
No rivalry off the pitch between Ronaldo and Messi, who graced the world with a splendid photo this Saturday, on the eve of the World Cup. The two attackers shared the same image on their account, where they are gathered around a game of chess. An already legendary photo, and a great publicity stunt for Louis Vuitton as well.
