Di Maria stressed that Messi is a complete football talent while his Portuguese counterpart made it through hard work
Di María: “I think Leo Messi has more dimensions as a footballer than Cristiano. I have always said the same thing and I will continue to say it. They’re the two best players in history, but Messi represents a huge gap over Cristiano.
Cristiano represents work, work, just work. Messi is a pure talent, a gift from god. He doesn’t need any effort, he’s just the best at this. That’s why the difference between them is so big, Leo can’t be compared to anyone.” (clank media)
