France v Argentina, 15:00 BST, BBC.

[Marc Overmars]

There’s nothing between them. It’s a matter of opinion as to who you prefer. Messi is a gifted genius and Ronaldo is a genetic freak. 5 years ago I don’t think there was a debate to be had but Ronaldo has somehow enjoyed the best years of his career when he should have been preparing for the scrap heap and that’s down to his incredible dedication to the sport.

I’m glad at least one of them has an international honour to his name, both couldn’t be more deserving.

IMO The CL is the most quality filled and hardest competition in the world to win, so I don’t believe Messi needs to prove anything really. Messi should at least have a Copa America title but he fluffed his lines, shit happens and I don’t think it’s the be all and end all.

It does make me laugh though how Ronaldo’s success seems to trigger a lot of people but that’s the internet I suppose.

Glad France and Uruguay won so we can watch the remainder of the World Cup without this insufferable who’s the GOAT narrative.
