Lionel Messi vs. Cristiano Ronaldo: Analyzing Who's Better in 20 Categories | Bleacher Report: "Lionel or Cristiano? Ronaldo or Messi?
The eternal question remains: who's better? This article will try to approach this question by analysing 10 technical and physical categories and deciding a winner in each one.
By tackling this topic (yet again), I expect both Messi and Ronaldo fans to disagree with me.
But I will try my best to remain objective and to declare a winner for the attributes I have decided to compare them on—both physical and technical attributes (shooting, acceleration, strength...) and 'intangible' ones (mentality, marketability, ego...).
The winner will be determined by points on each category they win.
Want to know who'll win in speed?
Or in free-kick ability?
What about sportsmanship?
Will it be Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo?

RONALDO TAKES TOP SPOT AHEAD OF GIGGS, GERRARD, LAMPARD AND VIEIRA
RONALDO TAKES TOP SPOT AHEAD OF GIGGS, GERRARD, LAMPARD AND VIEIRA | Give Me Football: "1. CRISTIANO RONALDO – SPORTING LISBON, MANCHESTER UNITED AND REAL MADRID
Cristiano Ronaldo is arguably the best player to have ever graced the Barclays Premier League. A goalscoring winger with exceptional pace, balance and skill for a big man, the Portuguese international became the first man since Andy Gray to win the PFA Players’ Player of the Year and Young Player of the Year awards in the same year (2007). He then won the Players’ award for a second time 12 months later and also the FIFA World Player of the Year award after scoring 31 league goals – a remarkable return for a winger."
