Best Player in World Football 2011 - Messi or Ronaldo?



Ronaldo and Messi stand toe to toe on 24 goals each this season. The debate rages on still as to who really is the best between these two great players. Seemingly, each takes their turn to test the other with two or three goals in a single match.

Ronaldo is performing much better for Madrid this year than last. Under Pellegrini last year, he scored a total of 26 goals in the league, an impressive number by anyone´s standards. However, this year he has already scored 24 times. It is likely that he will destroy the record of his first year with Madrid. He does however still have some challenges ahead. If he continues at the scoring rate of present, he will end the league season with 41 goals, defeating the current record of 38 goals, held by Hugo Sanchez and Telmo Zarra. In addition, he has to vie with Barcelona´s Lionel Messi, his eternal rival for top scorer. A real clash between the two "cracks", as the Spanish like to call the top players.
