Only seen the second half but it's been an excellent game and that's surely the goal of the tournament so far.

Maybe a good goal but he has to face getting bummed by Gerrard Pique every night.

Compared to this is was an all time classic! Has a 120 minute game ever been completed without a shot on target?

Imagine if Ronaldo won it, reckon Messi would come out of international retirement even though neither are motivated by each others success!?

Anyone seen that Ronaldo docu-film? His face was a picture when his son was so excited to meet Messi!

Ronaldo is a brilliant footballer that has just never understood that its a team game. He would rather lose 4-3 get a hattrick and be motm.

There have been a few like him before.

What I can never understand is that none of his team mates have actually twatted him.

It's pretty sad really for someone so talented to be such a loser. He doesn't celebrate with team mates, shows his anger physically when they don't meet his standards on the pitch and is not very respectful of poorer opposition.

Fact is he's probably within the top 5 footballers ever, certainly within the top 10 but he'll be remembered for being a tool just as much as his incredible goal scoring record.

He will be remembered for being a tool for more than for his football ability.

Will never be as good as the proper Ronaldo. Or eat as many magnums.

IMO Ronaldo is the best footballer in my generation, forget C Ronaldo and Messi, Ronaldo beats them hands down.

I still think he's the best ever. Pace, power and feet like superglue.

If watching a player doing ridiculously clever skills during a game is what this is about, then Ronaldinho trumps either Ronaldo.

Ronaldinho would probably be in my top 3 as well.

Ronaldinho was unreal as well.

Ignoring the shitey music, this is a great watch:

Rivaldo was also a fantastic player but I lost pretty much all respect for him for this incident..



It's so cringeworthy..

Ronaldinho did it for about 3 seasons though and then clearly liked paella too much. He was as unplayable as Messi on his day and like Messi that was natural talent, the one thing about C Ronaldo is that he's worked hard to get where he is. Another thing about them 3 is Ronaldinho and Messi got kicked to pieces and often kept on going, C Ronaldo would be rolling around on the floor.

It's always hard to judge players against each other when they're playing years apart. In a few years we'll be talking about different names, maybe the likes of Renato Sanches who looks handy. I laughed when they tried to excuse Stirling on the radio saying he's only 21 so he could still become one of the greats, I think most of the greats were able to kick a ball in a net and cross at 21 mind.
