I guess that a lot of us were expecting to see messi vs CR7 at the finals. It would be amazing and story would be written around it.

This would have been unlikely, unlikely based on the part of Portugal as it actually turned out but, a world cup final between Messi and Ronaldo would have been epic. Two GOATs, locked in an epic of having a chance to end there national careers with a trophy that have eluded both and most of all, one gets to deprive the other of the opportunity, it would have been sweet savory for history.
Still okay, Messi got it and that's enough for them no or should should say, Messi. Can't say Ronaldo is exactly happy for him, lol.

Leo Messi proof himself once again as the outstanding GOAT in football with no argument or doubts from the both parties. Everyone was hoping to see Ronaldo and Messi in the final for the real GOAT debate. But unfortunately Portugal got eliminated from the world cup in the quarter finals by Morocco. Messi and Ronaldo have been in competition for decades with both winning awards and breaking unforgettable records in football. There's a new heights for the both players when they would retired from football.

Messi and Ronaldo complement each other. Having one made it easy to measure the other. And they have taken football to a unique height to prove themselves the best. But the best of the best is one. And that is currently Lionel Messi.
