“You know Dragon Ball? Vegeta always talks a lot about Goku and the fact is that he won’t be as great as Goku,” opened Nicolas Pepe.
“Cristiano Ronaldo does a lot of interviews and talks a lot about Messi. That shows him as number two, like Vegeta,” he added.
Pepe does not hesitate to call Lionel Messi the best footballer in the world. Cristiano Ronaldo is below him.
“In the debate over Messi or Ronaldo, I have Messi. If you talk about football, forget statistics because Messi is ‘crazy’,” he said.
“There is no human being who can compete with Messi and none after him,” he stressed.
Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi have become two football icons and have shared the stage of rivalry for at least the last two decades. Both players are full of achievements, trophies and record achievements.
Both of them are full of rivalry. But do you agree with the comparison of Vegeta vs Goku as Nicolas Pepe said?
