Cristiano Ronaldo still has a considerable advantage over Lionel Messi in the table of players with the most goals in the entire history of professional football. However, the Argentine genius of the battle cannot be ruled out. And it is that, in addition to being 2 years younger, the current 30 of PSG has turned on once more in the scoring plane.
Taking club and national team into account, the seven-time Ballon d’Or has scored 11 goals this season. CR7, meanwhile, has only been able to score 1 goal so far this season.
It is clear that the Funchal monster will continue to score goals until he retires, but his rhythm has been declining and this might be taken advantage of by the captain of the Argentine senior team, who is 36 goals behind Manchester United’s 7.
