Lionel Messi is the real GOAT, not Cristiano Ronaldo, reveals research team

It is a common discussion among football fans that who is the better player among the best players like Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. There is usually a war of superiority between the two players. The fans of both are busy in telling their favorite player better. Meanwhile, a scientific report has revealed who is actually a better player between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.

Actually recently a scientist has done research in this regard. Data scientist Dr. Graham believes that Lionel Messi is a better player than Cristiano Ronaldo. There are different answers to the football debate. So, it should come as no surprise that Graham has chosen a side. In this research, he believed that both the players are almost equal for scoring goals. Ronaldo is a little ahead. But if you take the penalty, Messi is slightly ahead.

Cristiano Ronaldo is a great penalty taker. Ronaldo has converted some pressure penalties during his career. However, Graham thinks it’s a hoax. He further claimed that Lionel Messi is a better playmaker. This is a matter of debate, as Ronaldo deliberately chose to play as a key attacker during the later stages of his career. The difference, he said, is that Messi is also a world-class attacking midfielder. The chances he creates for his teammates are an order of magnitude higher than Ronaldo’s. Messi does two things very well. Ronaldo does one thing brilliantly. That’s the difference.
