The 76-year-old has stated that he loves the fact that the 2 players battle to be the world’s best and it is beneficial for the good of the game.
Messi vs. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ronaldo-c31734 is now a comparison associated to all of the people who follow the game or are linked to it, in any sense.
The battle started back in the 2007-2008 campaign and the season of outplaying each other has since then evolved into becoming one of the biggest debate of all times.
However it is unfair to any of the two involved in the duel, if one terms one ahead of the other, as the services of both have been monumental to the game.
Messi, believed to be a natural talent, has shown breathtaking ability and has broken one of the oldest records which were embedded in the history books.
Taking Ronaldo, who is more a product of hard work, has also taken the game to new heights as the Portuguese has broken a fare share of ancient records as well, and his prolific goal scoring rate stuns the world.
The FIFA President is apparently very happy with the rivalry between the two players, who are believed to be the best in the world and is of the opinion that the rivalry between the two must be enjoyed rather than analysed.
He also said that both players have different playing styles and hence comparing the two may well be a sin.
"Football cannot have one type of player. Imagine there were two like Messi or two like Ronaldo. It would not work well. They are polar opposites and I believe it is tremendous for football to have personalities like them."
Both of the sensations are coming head to head in search of bagging the prestigious Ballon d’Or award.
"FIFA do not choose who is best. It is not us who decides. "It is the federations that have the election and the president has neither the right to veto, nor the right to vote. It's something sporting."
The award is to be given on January 7th, with voting as the criteria behind the allotment of the prize.
