Eden Hazard’s Compliment for Lionel Messi

DBasia.news – Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are still the two biggest rivals in world football, even though they are no longer playing in the same league. There are many people comparing them.

Since promoted to Barcelona main squad in 2004, Messi showed his best performance. He also presented many prestigious trophies like the 8-stage of LaLiga, 5 Copa del Rey, 7 Supercopa de Espana, 4 Champions League, and the Club World Cup.

Meanwhile, Ronaldo also got many achievements. 8 seasons with Real Madrid, the Portuguese player performed in more than 400 matches and scored 430 goals of all competitions.

There’s no need to doubt his achievement with Los Blancos. Ronaldo won the LaLiga, Copa del Rey, Supercopa de Espana, 4 Champions League, UEFA Super Cup, and Club World Cup. For the individual achievement, both collected 5 Ballon d’Or trophies.

Decided to join Juventus in summer 2018, the 33-year-old player has collected 15 goals and 6 assists of all competitions. Bianconeri also lead the Serie A temporary table with 53 points.

Messi and Ronaldo’s achievement made them considered as the world’s best player. But, Chelsea star Eden Hazard said a different opinion. He thinks Messi is the one who deserves the world’s greatest player of all time.

“There aren’t two GOATs, there’s only one and it’s him. My two matches against Barcelona were far from my favorite memories of 2018, but I was happy to face Barcelona and Messi,” Hazard said cited by Marca.

Now, this season, Messi is still the reliable player of Barcelona. Moreover, the Argentinian player just scored his 400th goal in the LaLiga match against Eibar, Monday (14/1).
