Former "Barcelona" and Madrid "Real" clubs striker Javier Saviola shared his thoughts on the upcoming "El Clasico" about the brightest stars of these two teams - Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.
Today, for important points in the Spanish "La Liga" championship, "Barcelona" will face "Real". J. Saviola has no doubts about C. Ronaldo's talent and his goal-scoring abilities, but L. Messi impresses him more as a player.
"I like Messi's playing style. If I had to choose my favorite player, it would definitely be Lionel," - J. Saviola told journalists.
"It's a matter of taste. I prefer Messi more, but it doesn't mean that Ronaldo is bad. He is a fantastic footballer. Cristiano is a goal-scoring machine with exceptional physical attributes.
But I like Messi because of his exceptional gameplay. He puts on a much more impressive performance on the field than Ronaldo. There is no doubt that when they both end their careers, they will be called the greatest footballers in history," - concluded the Argentine.
