'Messi natural, Ronaldo built in a gym' - Tevez says Barca star plays 'another sport'

The Boca Juniors striker considers his fellow Argentine to be a remarkable talent, with the extraordinary made to look normal by God-given ability

Lionel Messi’s God-given ability allows the Barcelona star to play “another sport” to mere mortals, says Carlos Tevez, with Real Madrid rival Cristiano Ronaldo more of a man-made product.

Two of the finest talents the world has ever seen have spent the last decade locked in a remarkable battle for global supremacy, with 10 Ballons d’Or and countless records shared between them.

The debate as to which member of the heavyweight duo can be considered the best continues to rage and divide opinion, with there serious arguments to be offered for both causes.
