Ronaldo is fair and admits one thing about Leo Mess

Before Luca Modric suddenly won the “Golden Cup” last year, Messi and Ronaldo shared the previous ten awards.

They ruled for as long as we had forgotten that someone else could ever win this prestigious individual award.

Besides us, maybe Mess and Ronaldo are lucky to be living in the same time.

They've pushed each other year after year, both of them trying to break each other's records.

And this is one thing Ronaldo admits.

I really admire his career. He has already expressed disappointment when I left Spain because it was a rivalry he valued,” said Ronaldo.

It's a good rivalry, but it's not unique Michael Jordan had a basketball rivalry, it was Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost in Form 1.

One thing they had in common was they were healthy rivals.

There is no doubt that Mess has made me better and vice versa. When I win the trophy, of course it motivates him and it's the same for me when he wins.

I have a fantastic professional relationship with him because we've shared the same moments for 15 years.

We never had dinner together, but I can't see why we can't do it in the future. I don't see any problem with that.” /Periscope. com/
