The football world is always gripped by an age-old debate - who is the true G.O.A.T between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi? The two legends of the game have enthralled fans for years and continue to do so even in their late 30s.
The Al-Nassr star has struggled this season and moved from Manchester United to the Saudi Arabian club after a fallout with the bosses at Old Trafford. Meanwhile, the Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) star has had a stellar year, including clinching Argentina's third World Cup glory.
