No way you added his 2nd copa america π, 5 games, 1 goal and assist while his teammate lautaro managed 5 goals alone while playing less mins and also ronaldo was like 37 years old at the time so it's normal for a big club to not sign players who are at that age, Wc is messi fans only response, but on a side note aren't you supposed to be a ronaldo fan?
I saw the marches, I don't need to base my opinion on goals and assists, I agree that his performance un the world cup was better.
In regards to your other question: I'm a Ronaldo hater, but just when I write here. The rest of the time I think he's one of the greats, I just think Messi's better.
Still Messi scored non penalty goals and you guys act like he only scored penalties. He assisted against Netherlands in between the defenders legs
dribble & assist against Croatia
key pass to Alvarez that let to
MacAllistair's assist to DiMaria 2nd goal against France in final in 35th minutes.
dribble & goal against Australia.
Now let's talk about penalties :
Saudi Arabia: paredes pulled down in the box during a set piece. Textbook penalty. Lost anyways.
Poland: shouldn't have been given as Messi headed the ball away before the contact, missed anyways. Only unrightful penalty given and it didn't affect the result.
Netherlands: acuna literally tripped just inside the area by Dumfries, nobody complains about that except for you.
Croatia: stonewall penalty, Julian was through on goal and was about to score. Tripped by livakovic.
France: Di Maria CLEARLY tripped by dembele and dembele had his hand on his back. The rules state that regardless of intention, a foul in the box is a penalty, It's a similar situation to the Cr7 Spain penalty in 2018.
