Ronaldo is not just a great player , he is great leader too. The way he lifted portugal on his own shoulders alone shows his confidence and leadership quality.
No doubt messi is a great player too and debate messi vs ronaldo never gonna end but messi doesnt fight till the end , he lacks confidence when his team is 1 or 2 goal down and surely he lacks leadership qualities.
Ronaldo never gives up . He is 33 year old but he is still hungry for goals and cups. He is football genius.
