Former Real Madrid player Ronaldo believes that Argentina forward Lionel Messi deserves to win the World Cup.
Lionel Messi, Getty Images— Do I want Lionel Messi to win the World Cup? If he will play for Spain, then yes. The rivalry between Brazil and Argentina has a long history. We had incredible battles, but we always treated each other with respect, and that's the best thing about football.
But you should not think about the victory of Argentina at the 2022 World Cup. Does Messi deserve it? Well deserved, of course, but without my support. He likes me and he will understand me. I'm sure he would feel the same if he were me, Ronaldo said.
