Put both of them playing in their peak and Messi would have almost double the goals and quadruple the assists of R9. You play peak R9 and he'll have 40-60 goals/assists and I'll pick Messi which will give me 130 goals/assists. IF's don't exist, R9 got injured because of the way he was playing. Part of being good is reading your body and taking proper fitness nutrition. R9 never won a CL and played in one of the greatest national teams ever... Messi scores free kicks, corners, penalties, every game for the past 15 years and all of them are a highlight, R9 had moments here and there. R9 in his best season wouldn't win a Ballon D'or over Messi in his best season from individual performances. Messi at 19 scored a goal like Maradona, hat trick against Madrid...

Ronaldo Nazario el mejor 9 de la historia. Es increíble la velocidad, potencia y técnica que tenia!!

[@starbwoysharawy7296]

Kids of today don't know who the real Ronaldo was back in the days...

[@michaelchore6750]

Like me I was born in November 2001,I never saw Ronaldo playing the game of football but just watching his documentaries which makes me to believe he was the best and still the best🙂🙂🙂

[@K-9lwpd]

Ahhh the good old days☺️kids these days will never know bout the legendary ronaldo or the old national team..

[@siix6811]

I could watch all day Ronaldo matches il phenomenon waiting every second to see him with the ball so dangerous so good simply the best of all time.

[@JonDoe-sf2cg]

When he turns he's dangerous : Thuram R9 is naturally first touch ever

[@horyalpr]

ETOO/ZIZOU/DROGBA /IBRA/ CALLED HIM G.O.A.T...WHY ARGUE? There’s only one phenomenon THE #9 RONALDO

[@c.rkeyes5887]

When i was a kid in1998.I watched a game of Brazil ,l knew I'd loved the man in No.9.

[@larosabianca9543]

La foto in copertina dice tutto ! Il Fenomeno...il Re ! Sempre circondato da avversari...ma la palla c'è l'ha sempre lui...!

[@coletteuwanyuze8720]

You can not hear Messi & Cr7 admire eachother but Zidane and Ronaldo did., Best leson

[@saneman6188]

Privileged to see him play live.

[@asdflkj2041]

He was a monster to defenders.

[@cristinec5684]

ele é a razão q me fez gostar de futebol, não perdia uma partida dele... ah tempo bom

[@howboutmagictricks6915]

that nutmeg on lizarazu is nasty man..😂😂

[@zz-zam]

That era when in every country there is a couple of high skilled star players who's the average play as good or better than the only two stars we have now, messi and Ronaldo, back then we had lots of them and every match was worth watching.

[@dexter99999]

Mhmd Zam it’s not that you had lots of them . You had NONE of them so everyone was more evenly matched . Sorry but Ronaldo and Messi stepped on the scene ran with the ballon d’or and have never looked back since

[@Bill-Butcher]

Great video... R9naldo was such a skilful and lightning quick player in his prime... thanks for the upload 👍

[@alexanderninethson8801]

if Romario and Ronaldo played together the 1998 WC, Brasil Would be champions.

[@alex324ization]

the problem the was on defense and since 2006 brasil keep having defense problem no neymar no romario will fix that

[@sirturnables]

@@alex324ization WTF re u talking about??

[@hugodelphimborges5374]

Romário foi sabotado pela comissão técnica em 98, tendo grande influência de Zico nesta escolha, pois esse mesmo sabia que se Romário fosse campeão mundial em 98, assim como foi em 94, seria considerado melhor que Zico por aqui. A mídia aqui sempre quis dizer que Zico foi o melhor depois de Pelé, equecendo de grandes craques como Garrincha, Didi, Rivelino, Tostão, Falcão e outros. Mesmo não sendo convocado, aqui no Brasil é unanimidade que depois do Pelé, Romário foi nosso melhor jogador e goleador, seguido de Ronaldo Fenômeno. Em 90 Romário também não foi convocado injustamente, assim como em 2002, mas em 2002 a seleção deu a volta por cima e foram campeões.

[@HPS_Physio]

100%

[@nithinkrishnan6762]

They were drugged....

[@RF20TB12]

The only reason I watch football is because of him.

[@HimanisWorld]

Me too..👍

[@NocyMusic]

Simply the best no comes close to his flawless moves

[@rayshowtv2350]

If not for his injuries, he would have alot more ballon dor trophies in his cabinet

[@blehdj9532]

I love how France is tackling Ronaldo without really hurting him they are just irritating him

[@geovaneanselmo3098]

4:15 Olha esse domínio.. Pqp! O cara domina uma bola de 60 metros como se não fosse nada..

[@NocyMusic]

Brazil has produced the best soccer players on the planet 🌎

[@MamaMia84oo7]

I never seen a man run with the ball like Ronaldo did. That’s why he is fenomeno.

[@muhammadibrahimmalikchrp2596]

The man due to which I fell in love with football. Extraordinary player i have ever seen.

[@oeeekoeeek2437]

I love how years ago players was more honestly, they seems like french pplayers admired ronaldo, nowdays instagram has destroyed these milioners fotballers

[@gamzatkhazim545]

What a professional players Brazil used to have, just top class, the passes they do is just perfect

[@MrSaklar]

Even for professionals players Ronaldo dribbles is like magic and impossible to make. The phenomenon Elastico GOAT GOD.

[@absgara5684]

That is a very high quality football a joy to watch such legends

[@manuelsoto9134]

2 great teams. All of that talent on the field at one time.

[@zilahasri5745]

Ronaldo class was like having John wick team up with Jack reacher and successfully kicked thanos ass easily despite wearing his infinity gauntlet.

[@bioattitudefarmtv2585]

The best 😍 El fenomeno 🤩

[@camnam6939]

Defenders got what they wished for! R9 injured and never reached his greatest prime. If that injury did not stop him, R9 would be no doubt the greatest footballer ever to graze the field. Too bad medical teams are not that professional when it comes to treating injured players back in his days. CR7 and M10 have prolong dominance over the game because only a scratch and they are immediately rested! Period.

[@josephodiase174]

Pace and power.. Skilled..

[@Chinstrap-w7m]

And the tackles of defenders over time can cause injury too

[@navjitbassi03]

The true goat. Raised the bar so high people can only look at stats and excel sheets to try and discredit that. Just watch and compare how he plays the actual game and its obvious who the goat is

[@sevenseven8736]

ANOTHER LEVEL ANOTHER GALAXY 👑🖤👽.

[@aleksandarzivic8093]

When Zidane says you are the best than you are the best.

[@syedmansooralishah4916]

Ronaldo 9 was a legendary player in football history who knows how to play

[@PyroP7]

Greatest and most skilful footballer on the planet and the greatest that ever will be.The word magic doesn’t do justice to what he did on the pitch.

[@Kluivertnr1]

Ganja this is sooo true.

[@jdmlegent]

He was the Michael Jordan of football! There will never be another one like him! Unfortunately we saw him at his highest level only for 6 years... Imagine that after his injuries he was still the no.1, imagine his years at his peak level !

[@prashantchandra5551]

what messi and cr7 do in present is out of this wotld...its beyond mortal comprehension...r9 was great. but messi and cr7 are beyond that

[@jdmlegent]

@@prashantchandra5551 You should stick to cricket mate, you don't know shit about football and techincs needed to be great..

[@prashantchandra5551]

@@jdmlegent thanks for the advice but I am good here, maybe you should try watching contemporary football .seems like you havent been watching lately.

[@mokokamk8987]

This guy used to be a real beast 😱😱

[@MeneTekelUpharsin]

Many people say the game is more competitive now but why we've never seen a free-kick like Roberto Carlos again?

[@ananthnath8730]

Ball itself is very hard today 🤣
