Throughout February, Messi's performance was worrying, and he has completely lost the qualification to compete with Cristiano Ronaldo.
The 36-year-old Messi has scored four goals and two assists in seven games. 4 wins and 3 losses. An average of 0.86 balls per game.
The 38-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo has scored eight goals and two assists in four games. One of the big seniors. And they all play in the Super League, not the regional First Division. 3 wins and 1 draw, averaging 2.5 goals per game.
2.5/0.86 is about equal to 2.9, and Ronaldo's efficiency is 2.9 times that of Messi.
Cristiano Ronaldo led Riyadh to victory against four Super League teams, with an unbeaten record of 3 wins and 1 draw. On the other hand, Messi is only facing a group of first-division opponents, with a dismal 4-3 record, and he dares to claim to be the king of the southern hemisphere.
The all-powerful northern hemisphere king is back, and the performance throughout February crushed the southern hemisphere king Messi, and Ronaldo has been alone to defeat to loneliness. Ronaldo still has to challenge for the 6th World Footballer of the Year, the 9th Universal Award, the 6th Ballon d'Or, the 2nd European Cup and the 5th Club World Cup.
Football evergreens are not blown, but rely on strength to speak, Cristiano Ronaldo, Ibrahimovic, Buffon, the three major evergreens in European football, although they are still invincible in the twilight of their careers.
