Atletico manager Diego Simeone has
simplified the Lionel Messi vs Cristiano Ronaldo unending debate in his own
way, making a compelling argument as to the uniqueness of each player.
Simeone's arguments undeniably bear much weight as he has had to face both on
many occasions. Simeone has dealt with the duo since taking over as Atletico
Madrid manager in 2011.
Per Marca, Simeone said, “What I
consider is that in a team with fewer solutions, Ronaldo is a better fit because
he provides many solutions."
We are talking about very fine margins
of how a team plays. Cristiano can decide a game in a different way, he doesn’t
need ten attacks. He scored two headers against us and we were out.”
“Both need a team but the differences
are very small. Lionel, in an attacking team always plays better.”
“Ronaldo can win a game in two actions,
he simplifies the situations. Messi is mesmerizing because he plays elaborate
football. Leo plays in a team that compliments all of his talent. He always
ends up finding solutions.”
