Cristiano Ronaldo admitted on Wednesday his long-time rivalry with Lionel Messi has made him “a better player” and that he enjoys a “healthy” rivalry with the Argentine great. However, Portuguese star Ronaldo, whose influence at Real Madrid mirrored that of Messi at Barcelona before he left for Juventus, admitted that the pair have never socialised together. “I really admire the career he has had and from his side, he has already talked of the disappointment when I left Spain because it was a rivalry that he appreciated,” Ronaldo told TVI in Portugal. “It’s a good rivalry but it’s not unique — Michael Jordan had rivalries in basketball, there was Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost in Formula 1. The thing they all had in common is that they were healthy rivalries.” Ronaldo and Messi have won the coveted Ballon d’Or five times each, a factor that helps each player flourish. “I have no doubt that Messi has made me a better player and vice-versa. When I am winning trophies it must sting him and it’s the same for me when he wins,” he said. “I have an excellent professional relationship because we have been sharing the same moments for 15 years. He added: “We’ve never had dinner together but I don’t see why we can’t in the future. I don’t see a problem with that.” https://www.vanguardngr.com/2019/08/messi-made-me-better-player-says-ronaldo/ 18 Likes 2 Shares |

It's as if Ronaldo is looking forward to retirement. His utterances suggest so. If he wins something this season I'll be happy for him. Lastly, 10 years have past and I believe this Ronaldo and Messi rivalry has ended. I don tire. 22 Likes 2 Shares |

It's vice versa. Challenges will always make u grow and better ur past. It's been a great pleasure watching the workaholic rival the Genius. Ronaldo is a true definition of, "Talents without hardwork is Zero". Every other footballer is talented but none ever come close to CR7 level of determination, hardwork, focus and fitness. 29 Likes 6 Shares |

Ronaldo keeps dreaming about Messi. Messi keeps dreaming about football. Well, Ronaldo just admitted unwittingly that Messi is better. Only a person better than you can either make you better or inspire you to make yourself better. Finito! 40 Likes 2 Shares |

Afam4eva: The arrogant messi that said ronaldo was finished and that's season ronaldo won the ucl at madrid Or the messi who claims to miss ronaldo in la liga Or the same messi who said he enjoys ronaldo rivalry Or the same messi that promised camp nou a ucl because of ronaldo pressure. Messi thinks about ronaldo Same way ronaldo does. They both makes themselves better players and take it or leave it. Ronaldo to me will always be the better player, if messi can stand half of the hatred ronaldo went through and still be at the top of his game make i know why. If it was messi that won ucl last two season Modric cant be best player in eroupe, if it was ronaldo that shamed copa American organisers the world will come for his head. 30 Likes 6 Shares |

Nbote: Bsmartt: See them, using Ronaldo's words to judge him. Messi is also motivated by Ronaldo's performance on the pitch, that's why both of them are great footballers using each other's performance not to give up. Messi may not speak those words cause he's not a media type but deep down everyone knows.. They're motivation to each other. 9 Likes 1 Share |
