Lionel Messi Named Football's GOAT During NFL Super Bowl by Nobody: 7:26am On Feb 09, 2021
Lionel Messi added another feather to his cap after being named football's GOAT at the NFL Super Bowl on Sunday night. One could argue that Cristiano Ronaldo deserved the coveted award as he has won five Champions League titles, while Messi has won it four times with Barcelona.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers Tom Brady was named NFL's GOAT, Michael Jordan NBA's, while the title of NHL GOAT went to Wayne Gretzky.

thats normal, all spots professionals, analyst and pundits dt have watched both play over the years knows that they is no other type of player like the talented and magical lionel messi..
no disrespect to cr7 bt for me he is just about goals but messi gives u dt same insane numbers, can dribble, a perfect playmaker n the list is endless..
Leo is the only player dt can easily finish a season with more goals, more assist, more freekicks scored n most man of the match performances won and also all players n coaches do agree dt having leo on ur team makes it easier for u to win n dts why barca just CNT let him go dt easily..
m seriously tired of preaching dis gospel of lionel messi all d time, d painful fact is dt cr7 fan boys know all this but sentiments, hate n bias wont make them attest to this..

sure..CNT force it on anybody...jus stating d obvious because if you take away goals scored from their careers, cr7 isnt dt special n he isnt close to lionel messi..
messi is just too talented n more like a genius than cr7, if you have followed both of them from when they started, you won't argue that point.

The sports world knows that Messi is the numero uno when it comes to football. It's a no-brainer.

The OP should know that it goes beyond number of UCL titles, as Michael Jordan's six NBA titles is also not the highest in the NBA.

Being the GOAT is about having and demonstrating that unrivalled magical ability on-field week-in week-out. The way Ronaldinho brought joy to the global audience's faces even though there were tons of strikers who outscored him. It has never been about who has the highest statistical numbers, else we'd say Bruno Fernandes is already a far better player than Paul scholes and David Beckham combined, but who has the highest influence.

As average as Messi has been generally this season, he still has the highest man of the match awards in Spain and possibly in the whole of the top five European leagues this season. When you have a player that scores, dribbles, shoots well, good at free kicks, playmakes, gives the highest number of key passes and assists and does all these consistently, he's definitely better than other one-dimensional players with no other impact but putting the ball into the net, especially through penalties.

Useless opinion of lazy bowl clowns ... grin

Football is something else entirely not American rugby.

Everyone knows the real football goat is Pele.... however since social media wasn't a thing then, his heroics aren't pronounced.

A goat must have achieved everything achievable in such category of sports.... And Pele is the only footballer to have done so.

Correct top 6 list of all time in football

Pele
Maradona

Cristiano
Messi

Zidane
Ronaldo del Lima

grin... what do america know about football... a place whr its not really popular... its basketball, base ball, american football (NFL)hockey NHL , boxing , wrestling, tennis b4 soccer.. infact they are the only ones that call football soccer cos they believe the real football is NFL ... a country that think Manchester United is the greatest soccer club of all time... they don't even know that Ronaldo is a 5 time winner of the champions league...they instead put the one that only featured in 3 champions league wins

Asking america about football is like asking ur grand ma or grand pa about best bloggers

There's nothing like hate or bias ....all those thing u mentioned, Ronaldo had done all those stuff ( goals, assists, free kicks and dribbles) and the crazy thing is that he gets results with it ...messi only using his to claim la liga titles... Ronaldo is a goal getter, he is a force ... why should I take a messi ( even tho is is a fantastic player) that can't win me anything asides la liga , to a Ronaldo that has win multiple CL with 2 different teams , scores more important decisive goals than messi for both club and country and it has lead him to winning major trophies for both club and country... for the past 5seasons , Ronaldo has flawed messi when it comes to goals , decisive goals , assists in the CL and national team... in the past 5 years ronaldo has won la liga , Champions league, European Cup for Portugal so as the nations league with Portugal, serie a titles , copa de rey , world club cup...messi other other hand only has la liga titles and copa de rey ( finito) .... a general in the army will prefer a sniper that will strike dead top ranked officers in war thN a soldier that just fires bullets sporadically... any real coach will take a Ronaldo ahead of a messi...fact

I feel your pain bro. Messi is u disputed greater player than Ronaldo. Stay there where you are and be typing rubbish. The fact that Delima Ronaldo did not win any champions league does not discredit him as one of the greatest. Messi and Ronaldo are not the same, hence difference in their collection of glory and their sojourns in football career. There are numbers of tournaments that Ronaldo played and failed that
Messi has won. Messi greatness knows no bound right from underage football. He has won Olympic which Ronaldo failed to win for Portugal. He has won under 20 World Cup not for Nigeria but his country. If you are not happy with that kill yourself then. Pẹ̀lẹ́ dìde play in Europe and it takes nothing away from his greatness.
Messi is by far superior to Ronaldo unless you don't watch football but Instagram.

MESSI IS TRULY THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME.

Ronaldo fans, listen and listen good......

Messi was created and born to play football,
the others came to this world to learn the game, and they mastered it....rightly so anyways.


This is the ONLY difference between Messi and the rest, that many people do not understand!

MESSI is the G.O.A.T.
END OF DISCUSSION!
