RIYADH, Saudi Arabia -- If this is to be the last time Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi meet on the same pitch, at least they put on a show.
Thursday night was G.O.A.T.S. in the Gulf, an exhibition match between a Riyadh Season Team featuring Ronaldo, newly signed up to the Saudi Pro League, and Messi's Paris Saint-Germain. Even though it wasn't quite Real Madrid against Barcelona or Portugal vs. Argentina, the two old rivals did what they've done so many times before.
