A new front in the supremacy battle between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi has opened up in the race for the first of the two footballers to score 500 league games.

Lionel Messi has scored 433 goals while Cristiano Ronaldo has scored 432 goals. This means that only one goal separates both of them and this will galvanize the duo to be in the mood to score countless number of goals when they are given the chance.

The two footballers are revered for the indelible marks they have left on football’s history. Thus, the rivalry between these two heavyweights will not stop soon. It is a subject of debate as to who will be able to reach the 500 league goals count. The two players are unrepentant goal scoring machines. But who reaches the mark between the two?

THE PROSPECT OF LIONEL MESSI OUTSCORING HIS ADVERSARY

The whole Barcelona team is built around the left footed magician. He is more than just a player for the Catalan giants, with some calling him a savior and role model.

For the past decade, he has been scoring goals at ease. The Argentine has also garnished his pattern of play by providing assists for the likes of Luis Suarez.

Jordi Alba’s telepathic understanding with the captain is exceptional. All the overlapping from the left back position and square plays to the box to find Messi in the box can be described as impeccable. Lionel Messi is the creator, ruler, most valuable, most trustworthy and most relevant member of the present Barcelona squad.

Rumors also have it that he determines the starting lineup for some of the managers to suit his playing style. Also, with the departure of Luis Suarez due to injury, he is expected to be the spearhead of the attack and will be forced to delegate the role of creation of chances to other players like Frenkie De Jong and Ousmanne Dembele. It is expected that with every player on the team trying to find Messi, he is expected to score more goals and keep his rival, Ronaldo in his toes.

CRISTIANO RONALDO’S CHANCES TO DEFEAT HIS ANTAGONIST

Juventus style of play hasn’t really favored the hungry attacker. Fortunately for him, he has acclimatized to the defensive nature of the team and knows where to position himself to score.

No surprise that in recent games, he has been scoring for fun and has already scored a hat-trick this year. The determination of this monstrous goal scorer cannot be underestimated and his drive to create records will propel him to score goals faster.
