      I don’t know how ppl say that messi is worse than ronaldo, for the past 5years messi has been carrying Barca on his back and they are still qualifying for silverware however ronaldo, though he did kinda carry réal, is playing with the top teams in the world that are *guranteed* silverware, he is a glory hunter and by the end of both of their careers messi will have more goals total, my proof is that ronaldo and messi hit 700 goals at around the same time and ronaldo has been playing for at least 2more years more than him

    • @thatoneguy9510
      @thatoneguy9510 4 года назад +16

      ‘Ronaldo has scored goals that messi couldn’t’ no he hasn’t tho, has he... and messi plays in the laliga because of his loyalty, he said himself that he owes everything to Barca for helping him be the person he is today, ronaldo was at his best with réal IMO but hey... oh and silverware doesn’t matter when it comes to which player is better for EG: if Phil Jones won more trophies than ronaldo (hypothetically) would that mean that he’s the better player? Of course not. I’m not saying that is better than I think we should consider ourselves lucky to see such players as ronaldo, messi, lewandoski, neymar, neuer ETC play in the same generation. And before you say something like ‘ronaldo has scored more than any of them’ Remember that Ron played (as you said) with arguably two of the best teams ever, prime man united and prime réal Madrid with amazing, world class teammates to help him score as much as he did, he might have ‘carried’ Madrid for a while but their team was still a world class one, however messi (when he was in his early 20/ younger) was playing with some of the best ever players also like Ronaldinho, xavi, iniesta ETC which severely helped him to become one of the best but as the legends grew old and left (Messis mid-late 20s) messi had to partially carry a weakened Barca of which he has been doing for almost a decade, especially since neymar left
      In conclusion there is no best and that ppl like you should just stfu and appreciate them

Ronaldo played for Manchester united, Real Madrid and Juventus which are top clubs not struggling sides, He is one of the best player played with best teams so there is nothing to prove. Also you said Ronaldo can score any goals like messi does, but I never seen a goal scored by Ronaldo which is dribble past 5 or more difenders.

    The wonder goal in 2007 was special because at that time he was being called the next Maradona and he scores that goal that’s virtually a replica of the goal Maradona scored vs England in the 86 World Cup. There’s a short vid where they show the goals side by side on here and it’s crazy how similar they are to each other
    Also Olympic men’s soccer is under 23 with 3 players allowed over 23 per team. So it’s basically a u23 World Cup,
    Goal wise it’s crazy the rate him and Ronaldo are scoring at. They’ve basically a goal a game over the last 12-13 years.. but If your averaging between .25-.45 goals per game youre a solid goal scorer. Then top tier are are scoring from like .5 to .75 a game and if you’re lucky you’ll have a few season where you’re pushing one goal a game. Think of it this way, best batting avg record I believe is .426 I believe, imagine some one avg .500 for over a decade

  • @tedb2012tb

    I think 15 goals for a striker or someone in a forward position can be considered a very good turnover. I played semi professionally for 14 years and managed 18 in my best season. He averages maybe 30 in his 'worst' of seasons and 50 odd in his best of seasons against the best the world have to offer. That stand alone is crazy. The fact he's done it for 12-15 years, If you'd ask me 20 years ago id have said that was impossible. He also has the most assists of all time. Any attacking stat you can think of....he is on top by an infinite distance. Ive played and watched a lot of sports, I don't think I've ever seen anyone as good as anything as he is at football. Messi is better at football than Einstein was at physics.

    The dominance Leo Messi has as an individual player is astounding. Studies have shown he is thrice as good as any other footballer around the world and twice as good as his rival Cristiano Ronaldo. Calling him an alien is an understatement.
    in the 2010s he has most goals, most assists, most dribbles, most key passes (pass that leads to a shot), chances created, free kick goals, most titles, most individual titles, most man of the match, most through balls (defense cuting passes) etc.

      There's something else, he has averaged nearly 50 goals in every year since the last 11 years. The best players in the sport have 1 or 2 such years, sometimes not even that many.
      Also, a record that is rarely mentioned. Leo Messi is the only player in history to have at least one individual best player award in every competition!
      Also, he has nearly 100 Man of the Match Awards more than Ronaldo in the last decade, despite the fact that some people believe they are on par with each other.
      He has the most number of trophies on club level - his Olympic medal and U-20 World Cup win is not counted as international medal with Argentina. He is yet to win a Copa America that is reserved for South American nations and a World Cup although he has been in a WC final and 4 Copa America finals. Heartbreak.

    If you want to know Messi here's few quick thing's for you:
    1. He is one of the if not the best gifted footballer.
    2. Messi's main keys Dibbles, vision, passing, close ball control, very high quick feet and mind, simple but has the best acceleration. His most skills are simple but highly efficient he can tricks 3 or 4 players with very simple movements.
    3. Having no major international trophy with Argentina but one time world cup, three times intercontinental cup (copa) runner up. Which is known for as the biggest tragedy in his legendary football carrier.
    4. He also knows for one club player in Barcelona he was there since the of 13th. He had growth hormone problem in early times but having those gifted abilities he was funded by Barcelona for that reason he is ever since as a Barcelona player. But in return he gave Barcelona a tremendous football history with him. He paid by 640000euro in a week which is highest among the top players.
    5. His goal celebration pointing fingers to sky as to tribute to his late grandmother.
    Ohh it's a lot bro I think may be later on Messi.

    Barcelona have been in kind of a crisis over the last 2-3 years due to bad management and poor decisions by the board. Messi is literally carrying that team by himself (3 goals and 9 assists in the last 5 or 6 games) without him they wouldn't be a world class team anymore. He's 33 so his prime won't last much longer so I hope barcelona get it together, so he won't have to spend the last years of his career carrying the entire team by himself, they gotta take some pressure off of him. After all he's done for barcelona in the last 16 years they owe him that much at least.

      @@MenkeYT It shows his quality. The main reason he can still do it at 33 is that his game isn't very dependent on physical attributes but more on his superb intelligence, understanding of the game and his intuition. He doesn't score 91 goals in a year anymore but he's become the best playmaker in the world, while still being one of the best goalscorers and his playmaking abilities won't get worse with his age it will probably get even better. That's why many see him as the goat, after 15 years at the top he still doesn't show any signs of getting weaker. We're blessed that we can watch an athlete like him play every week it's not something you should take for granted imo.

    To answer you questions: the average amount of goals for good players in a season are almost 30-40. The champions league is a tournament that happens every year. Basically it is all europe best teams competing together, it starts with group stages where there is 8 groups each group has 4 teams. The teams play each team twice, on at their home stadium and one at the other’s team stadium(away). A win is 3 points, draw is 1 point and losing is zero. After playing every other team twice the top 2 team (according to points)from each group qualify to the round of 16, where each team play another team twice(like play-offs) but after 2 matches the team with more total goals qualify to the next round which is quarter final/round of 8 then semi final and then final which is played as one single match

Every league also has a league title that everyone plays each other home and away once that consists of about 40 games and the top four teams of the best leagues in Europe play against each other which is called the UEFA Champions league (this is the best club competition a team can win) where teams player home and away leg. And finally every four years there is a World Cup .
    Great reaction keep up the good work

    Another thing amazing about messi and ronaldo and suarez is that they are the players with most assists in history which is insane couse they all played striker and every used to think the midfielders were the assisters and they revolutionized the game and messi is number 1 by a good about, hes scores alot also assist which at the time mas VERY rare at the time that the attackers create most of the chances

    La Liga = a league format tournament of top 20 teams in Spain, each team plays each other twice in a season.
    Copa del Rey = a knockout tournament for all professional Spanish teams.
    Supercopa de Espana = a small 4-team knockout tournament between the the top 2 La Liga teams and the 2 Copa del Rey finalists.
    Champions League = a knockout tournament between the top few teams from each major European country.

    I was watching this because I like to watch reaction videos of americans and futbol, but I wasnt expecting the worlds cups and the copas america that bring a tear to my eye, I'm argentinian, for us winning the world cup again would be so awesome but losing the final like that, at the 113 minute... truly heartbreaking. The day we beat Nethearlands to reach the finals, my town's park was exploding with joy its so wonderful what this brings to the people, seeing all the kids in awe and remembering the world cup France 98 when we beat England, I was one of those kids in awe... Im a sports fan, I love a bunch of sports but this one is just special to me

    The previous record for most goals scored in a calender year stood for more than 40 years before Messi broke it. A german legend named "Gerd Müller" scored 85 goals back in 1972 and there's a reason why it stood for so long. Messi is the greatest to ever play the game and whoever disagrees has no clue about football or is just biased

  • @sdepountis
    @sdepountis 3 года назад +2

    The format in the UEFA Champions League consists of two stages:
    1. A group stage - 8 groups of 4 teams. Each team plays each other twice (home and away). 3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw, 0 points for a loss. Top two teams with most points from each group advance.
    2. The knockout stage - From then on, up until the semifinal there's a draw. The teams that are drawn play each other twice (2 legs), once home, once away. Team with most goals on aggregate goes to the next stage. IF the total goals scored are the same, the team with most away goals advances. If, after regulation of the second game there's also a deadlock we go to 30min extra time and if there's a deadlock again, we go to penalty kicks. This carries all the way to the semi finals. The final is a single game, after which the champion is crowned.
    There's one thing nobody mentioned about Messi: There's a handful of briliant players in footbal history that have managed to have high level performances throughout their carreer. NOBODY has had that many great performances, year after year, in such a high level as Messi. I mean the guy is in his 16th season and is still carrying the team around. Nobody can match that...

    Argentina already got 2 World Cups but none with Messi on the team, wich is really depressing for everyone, his biggest chance was on 2014 but he will play the 2022 World Cup and that is pretty much his last chance because of his age, players usually retire from their national teams at his age and that's a huge pressure for him.

    Messi is the pinacle of what we call PROCESO DEPORTIVO, he was scouted from argentina when he was 12 by LA MASIA which is like the forje for new BARCELONA breed players.
    Messi is always being the best in his team since he was a kid, and the team playing for him well sorrounded by other MASIA players like BUSQUETS XAVI INIESTA FABREGAS PUYOL ETC.
    some of them playing since he was a kid until they won the champions league several times.
    and coached by a MASIA DT to,PEP GUARDIOLA.

    Every country has its own competition and depending how good a certain country (National team + competition from that country is) there will be a certain amount of teams going to either Champions League (the higher the national ranking is, the more teams from that competition can qualify for Champions league) or Europa League (a level lower then the champions league).. And scoring 70 or 90 goals a season, nobody has ever done before.. 20 is decent, 30 is sublime but to make more then 50 is already phenominal!! Let alone stand 70 or even 90 goals in the whole season (that also includes friendly games, cup games and champions league / europa league).. I like this content man, keep it up!!

    Messi keeps playing, but he's getting old, so you should definitely follow him and watch some Barcelona and Argentina games before he retires. It's amazing to see his highlights but, believe me, watching the games is just a whole other experience. Some people don't realize this because we get to see Messi week in and week out, but living to see the best player in the history of this sport is a true blessing.

    Every country has their own league like the MLS here in the US. within each country there is a cup tournament thats played by many levels of professional soccer. The top teams in each league qualify for champions league which is all of the top teams from Europe. This is usually the biggest trophy of the year besides the winning the league. Then there is international play, additional tournaments from winning cups. All played simultaneously throughout the year

    Almost every country around the globe got their own Football Association with several leagues from division one down to 4/5/6, after that you also have some amateur leagues. Every FA got a cup or even more, where clubs from same league or even more divisions(some also with amateur clubs starting) play against each other in knock-out rounds.
    Now every continent got their own "international cup/s". In europe you have the Champions League, considered as the most competitve tournament, where only the league champions (weaker leagues) or clubs that finished 1-4 (stronger leagues) qualify. They first play in groups of four, but only the best two clubs qualiy for the knock-out stage.
    Then you have the next european cup calles Euro-League (former Uefa-Cup, or "League of loosers"). Teams that finished 4/5/6 in their national league or have won the national cup qualify for it. Same like with the CL, group stage, knock out stage.
    End of the season (in summer) winner of Champions-League and Europa-League battle each other, that's the "super cup"
    Other continents have their own tournaments that are comparable like "Copa Libertadores" in south america (strongest after european one), AFC Champions(Asia), CONCACAF Champions League (north and middle america), CAF Champions League (africa) and OFC Champions League Oceania.
    In winter the winning clubs of their continental tournaments battle each other in hte "fifa a club world cup".
