Rodri: “Those who played against Messi and Ronaldo understand the difference”

Manchester City midfielder Rodri responded to a question about the best player in the history of football.

— I have no doubts, it’s Messi. Ronaldo managed to catch up with Messi, although he didn’t have the same talent as Lionel. But those who played against both players understand the difference. We didn’t want Cristiano to enter the penalty area, as it was deadly dangerous. But Messi always entered the penalty area and created more problems for us. When Messi got the ball, you said, “Danger.”

When I started playing, I tried to play against him, but he always outplayed me,” said Rodri.
