Lionel Messi and Neymar have been two of the most celebrated footballers in the world for their talent, style, and impact on the game. However, there is another player who has also had a significant impact on both of these legends' careers - and that's Cristiano Ronaldo.
In recent years, Ronaldo has shown incredible form with his performances consistently pushing Lionel Messi and Neymar to new heights. In this article, we will explore which of the three players scored more goals in their last match.
The first player to be compared was Lionel Messi. In a recent match against Real Madrid, Messi scored a goal against Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) and then went on to score a hat-trick against Juventus. It is worth noting that Messi had not scored in the final 15 minutes of PSG's match against Juve until the 99th minute, when he scored twice in the second half.
However, it should be noted that Messi's performance was not without controversy. He received a penalty kick in the 88th minute for a foul on Thiago Alcantara, but the referee ruled it as a non-collateral error, rather than a penalty. This led to criticism from some fans and even FIFA, who eventually suspended Messi for one match.
On the other hand,Serie A Overview Neymar's performance in a recent match against Atletico Madrid was less controversial. In a 2-0 win over the Spanish giants, Neymar scored twice in the first half and again in the second half, helping Brazil to a 4-0 victory. However, Neymar did receive a yellow card for a reckless tackle on Kevin De Bruyne in the 77th minute.
Finally, Cristiano Ronaldo's performance in a recent match against Manchester United was equally impressive. In a 3-1 win over the Red Devils, Ronaldo scored a hat-trick in the first half and then added another brace in the second half, helping Portugal to a 6-1 victory. Ronaldo's performance was praised by many fans and media outlets alike, and he was named the Best Player of the Year at the European Football Awards.
Overall, while Ronaldo has been the most successful player among the three, Lionel Messi's dominance remains unmatched. While Neymar has continued to perform well, Ronaldo's achievements continue to be remembered and celebrated throughout the sport.
