Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo hit back at Barcelona legend Xavi on Saturday over his comments comparing the Portugal international to Lionel Messi, questioning the midfielder's relevance during his post-match interview after the 5-2 LaLiga win over Osasuna.
As AS reported, Xavi weighed in on the never-ending comparisons between former team-mate Messi and Ronaldo, telling Cadena SER there is no comparing the two, as the Argentinian is clearly better: “Ronaldo is extraordinary but compared to Messi, for me and for everyone who likes football, there can be no comparisons. Messi will be number one until he wants to stop.
