Lionel Andres MessiPerivous answer is incorrect. There is no way knowing which player is better. Some might say Cristiano Ronaldo is better. Some say Messi is better. Messi's goals are mostly assisted by Xavi and Iniesta. Don't get butthurt. He does have a lot of solo goals, but he is just pass, pass, goal. Cristiano Ronaldo is pass, pass, goal, penalties, heading, freekicks, long shots. All round. Also technical. Messi is widely known as a Phantom dribbler. Cristiano Ronaldo pulls off stepovers and etc. If you ask me Cristiano Ronaldo is better. He is faster, powerful, technial and brilliant. Messi is good. I am not dissing him, but judging from both. C.Ronaldo is better.

If the way you determine 'better' is by monetary compensation, Ronaldo is better.
If the measure is the number of goals scored internationally, Messi has 19 in 66 matches, Ronaldo has 7 in 40 matches, which makes Messi the better soccer player.
that is an interesting question. If you were going on current form christiano renaldo wins out but over their careers renaldinho has had more experience and has done lots more amazing things. In both players cases if either of them are at their best they are very exciting players to watch and would be right up there with the best players in the world.
Messi would die because he is such a midget that he can dribble. That would mean cristiano ronaldo is better then messi, and messi will die
