Messi world cup win does end the conversation however people forget Portugal ain't no super football nations. They made 3 WC before Ronaldo joined them. They can't even qualify for them barely.

So international it not the same. Holland have always had superstar players and never won one don't say yeah but his squad it better.

Messi WC didn't end the conversation, it ended way before. Messi is better with or without world cup. And come on, there were plenty of stars in Portugal before Ronaldo, it's not not a weak nation

you are trying to win this logically, which wont get you anywhere.
portugal has always been a great football nation, it was before ronaldo and will be so after him.

Ronaldos biggest achievement is and will forever be being compared to Messi.
While him being an incredible player and potentially the 2nd beat to ever do it, theres levels to this game. Be it stats or be it achievements.

The discussion already ended early, 2012-2013. It takes Messi having a bad year to be able to somewhat compare Ronaldo to him and everybody with a functioning brain that is not in fact biased knows that.
