    Cristiano Ronaldo Finally Talks Some Lionel Messi

    So what does Cristiano Ronaldo think of Lionel Messi? Despite the fact that it would be much more interesting for the two best players in the world to hate each other (which maybe they do, on the inside), the Portuguese captain had nothing sensational to add to the equation and the constant debate about who’s better and what their relationship is.

    FC Barcelona – David Villa Hides Lionel Messi’s Weakness

    All the drama and excitement from having a new child looked like they got to Lionel Messi, as everything seemed to be working fine in the Barcelona attack in their win over Celta, especially David Villa, except for when the team’s top scorer touched the ball, trying to do too much all by himself in a selfish display from the best player in the world.

  • A Weird Night – Lionel Messi & Cristiano Ronaldo Don’t Score

    A Weird Night – Lionel Messi & Cristiano Ronaldo Don’t Score

    Barcelona didn’t have too much of a problem at home against Celta Vigo, but Lionel Messi wasn’t completely there in his mind, looking unfocused and slow to react. Real Madrid had a less than comfortable match against Zaragoza, with the 4-0 scoreline not telling the truth about what happened in the match, but Cristiano Ronaldo simply couldn’t find the goal.

  • FC Barcelona – Lionel Messi Will Never Leave

    FC Barcelona – Lionel Messi Will Never Leave

    Some players are just impossible to imagine playing in a different uniform than what they are now. Lionel Messi has been a Barcelona player since 2000, arriving from Argentina at the age of 13. He played his first match in the league four months after his 17th birthday. It’s hard to see him wearing any other jersey but the one he’s plays in now.

    Nominees for the 2012 Ballon d’Or

    The list for the nominees for the 2012 Ballon d’Or award were released by FIFA, with Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo as the obvious candidates to win this one, while Real Madrid beat Barcelona in terms of number of players on this list and no one really came close to Spain on the international front.

    Lionel Messi – Just Breaking Another Goal Scoring Record

    Sometimes, I don’t really understand how the Ballon d’Or for 2012 is even a question. Lionel Messi has won it three times in the past, and should win a fourth. When you’re about to break the record for goals in a calendar year, after already setting records for goals in the league, Champions League and an entire season, there shouldn’t be any debate.

  • FC Barcelona – Nothing Changes for Lionel Messi

    FC Barcelona – Nothing Changes for Lionel Messi

    Home, away, hot, rain, dry, cold. Lionel Messi has had better days in terms of his involvement in build up and passing than the 5-0 win by Barcelona over Rayo Vallecano, but that doesn’t change the fact that he’s the deadliest scorer in the world when given the smallest of opportunities to add a goal to his incredible record.

    FC Barcelona – Jordi Alba Starts Proving his Worth

    On a night in which the Celtic defense looked unbreakable at the back, Barcelona needed a little something special from someone unexpected, and Jordi Alba, who hasn’t the best of seasons up to this point, fell into that certain slot with a dramatic winning goal.

  • FC Barcelona – Never Ending Lionel Messi Magic

    FC Barcelona – Never Ending Lionel Messi Magic

    Perfect players don’t come along too often, but Lionel Messi is probably one of the few. Any problem Barcelona were having or usually have this season is simply hidden behind the fact of having the best player in the world, who at times makes us feel that the only reason he doesn’t score more goals is because it’s too easy for him and he gets bored.

    No official date yet, no official anything. But all signs are indicating that through a charity match organized by Rivaldo, Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo will play together, for the first time, on the same team.
