Sky Sports, one of the most prestigious sports sites in the UK, has just held a vote for the Greatest Player in History (GOAT). Of which, 4 players have made it to the voting list: C. Ronaldo, Messi, Pele and Maradona.

According to the voting results, C. Ronaldo came in first with 36%, just 1% more than Messi. This shows the fierce competition between the two superstars throughout their careers. Even at this point, when Messi and C. Ronaldo are both "old men", their competition is still fierce.
The competition between Messi and C. Ronaldo deserves to be the greatest match in football history. No other pair of arch-rivals has created such fierce competition.
Following these two legendary names are Diego Maradona (17%) and “King of Football” Pele (12%). Of course, this vote is only relative because any of the four faces above are worthy of being the Greatest Player in history. The two legends Pele and Maradona did not receive many votes because they did not play in this era.

C. Ronaldo is having an impressive career. He is the player who has scored the most goals in the history of professional football with 938 goals. In addition, the Portuguese superstar has also won the Champions League 5 times, won 5 Golden Balls and played in more than 1,200 top matches.
Meanwhile, although Messi has 8 Golden Balls (the most in history) and holds many records for assists, in terms of number of goals, he is still temporarily inferior to C. Ronaldo.
In terms of international titles, Messi won the 2022 World Cup, the 2021 and 2024 Copa America with the Argentina national team. C. Ronaldo also won Euro 2016 and twice won the Nations League with the Portuguese national team.
