The Cristiano RonaldoLionel Messi rivalry is a rivalry in association football between two perceived rival players. Ronaldo and Messi are both regarded as being among the all-time great players in the sport, having won a combined six FIFA Ballon d'Or awards. Both players have scored in two UEFA Champions League finals and have regularly broken the 50 goal barrier in a single season. Both have scored over 400 goals in their career for club and country.[1][2] Sports journalists and pundits regularly argue the individual merits of both players in an attempt to argue who they believe is the best player in modern football.[3][4][5][6][7] It has been compared to legendary global sports rivalriessuch as the Muhammad Ali-Joe Frazier rivalry in boxing which culminated with the Thrilla in Manila, the Borg–McEnroe rivalry in tennis, and the Ayrton SennaAlain Prost rivalry in Formula One

Goalscoring awards

European Golden Shoe

The European Golden Shoe is awarded to the top goalscorer in Europe. Since the points system was established in 1996, Ronaldo and Messi are two of only three players, along with Mário Jardel, to score 80 or more points, while Messi is the only player to score 100 points. The Golden Shoe is awarded based on a weighted points system that allows players in tougher leagues to win even if they score fewer goals than a player in a weaker league. Goals scored in the top five leagues       according to the UEFA coefficientsrankings are multiplied by a factor of two, and goals scored in the leagues ranked six to 21 are multiplied by 1.5. Ronaldo and Messi are the only players to win the award three times.
