In a television interview, Cristiano Ronaldo discussed Argentine Lionel Messi, saying: “He is a fantastic, endearing player. Since we have played on the same sports field together for 16 years, I get along well with him.”
In his conversation with Piers Morgan, he also said, “I am not a buddy of his in terms of what I mean as a friend who was with you at your house or chatting to him on the phone.. It is more like a teammate than not, though.
“He is a man who I truly respect for the way he constantly talks about me,” he continued. “Even his wife or girlfriend always have respect.” What can I say about Messi, a wonderful person who contributes greatly to football?
