Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo has come out and commented about his rivalry with Barcelona number 10 Lionel Messi.
Ronaldo looks to steal the ball from Messi
Both had been said by critics to hate each other massively due to the fact as they are always in the hunt for the World’s Best Player.
Ronaldo and Messi have been said to be the best footballers in the World and they have dominated world football in the last decade and shared Ballon d’Or and FIFA Ballon d’Or between them during the last six years.
Well Ronaldo has said he actually has no issues with Messi now or ever.
He said: “It’s not at all true that we have a bad relationship. We are colleagues and have a professional relationship,” the Portugal star told Marca.
“We don’t have a relationship outside of football like I have with some other players. He tries to do his best for his club and national team and I do the same. There is a certain rivalry where we are each doing our utmost for our teams.
“This rivalry is part of my life. It is only normal that people compare us. The same happens in Formula 1 with Ferrari and Mercedes. I’m used to it. This has been the case not only since I joined Madrid, but already when I was still at Manchester United.
“I hope that we can both laugh about all this. Football is a game, it’s something fun and something we both like. We must face this rivalry in a positive way because it is a good thing. Football is something beautiful that all the fans enjoy.”
Ronaldo began the 2014-15 campaign in wonderful form netting three goals in four games for Los Blancos.
