Argentine football legend Angel Di Maria made harsh statements against Cristiano Ronaldo in response to the Don’s words that he is the best player in history.
Di Maria played with Ronaldo for years at Real Madrid, but he prefers his compatriot, Lionel Messi, and sees him as much better in all numbers and ways than the Portuguese star.
Di Maria said in press statements, “I am not surprised by what Ronaldo said, he loves to make these statements and tries to impose himself as the best.”
He also added, “Ronaldo is unlucky, he is a player at a high level, but he came in a generation in which a player at an exceptional level appeared, Messi is at a completely different level, this is the confirmed truth.”
He continued, “Messi won 8 Golden Balls compared to 5 for Ronaldo, Messi won the Copa America twice, and winning the World Cup also makes a huge difference, Ronaldo only won the Euro once.”
“All these details make a big difference in Messi’s favour, and don’t forget the difference you notice between them when you watch the matches. One of them makes a great effort to be the best, while the other plays as if he is in his own backyard,” he concluded.
