Messi once retired from international football because Argentina couldn’t win. Ronaldo never walked away. That didn’t end the GOAT debate.
Ronaldo was the first of the two to win a major international trophy for his country. But now that Argentina have a team that steps up on the biggest occasions, suddenly the international football Messi once ran away from is now the standard we’re supposed to use to judge his career against Ronaldo’s.
You can fool the casuals, but not ME!
I watched prime Messi in 2009
I watched prime Messi in 2010
I watched prime Messi in 2011
I watched prime Messi in 2012
I watched prime Messi in 2015
After all that, I still choose RONALDO as the GREATEST OF ALL TIME… You think I was blind?
I didn’t accept Messi those days, and you think because of a 7-game tournament and 2 assists against England I’ll change my mind? 😂
