What Ronaldo does is score from the advanced areas of the pitch ? If not that he pulls away defenders for others to score . Yes , that is important . But since you dragged Messi there , Messi can do that as well , he drags away defenders towards mainly for Alba to get the space . One of the best examples is what happened on this date last year , when Messi was marked by Kovacic . He dragged Kovacic away for the 1 St goal . Zidane marked Messi , EV didn't care about Ronaldo . So , he got spaces to score goals . He missed those sitters and self nutmegged ( not Trolling or insulting , it happens ) but a finisher like him should be converting so many chances . Now apart from this dragging away markers , Messi does more . Messi dribbles past players Everytime to create dangerous situations . He gives unreal through balls to create something out of nothing . And goalscoring ? Well he managed to outscore every player in the world this year inspite of doing so many other things . You're more of a Ronaldo fan than Madridista , so you'll always defend him . There's nothing wrong in that . But it's almost 2019 , please stop comparing other players to Lionel Messi . Messi is miles ahead of Pele , Maradona , Cruyff, Di Stefano let alone Cr7 . Nobody does that anymore . People watch football and understand it . There's a reason why professionals , ex players , managers pick Messi as the Goat . I thought Madrid fans have finally accepted this , sad to see people like you are still there who put Messi and Cr7 in the same sentence .

P.S : People might downvote me , they might think I'm hating Cr7 which I'm not . I'm a big fan of him " as a player " . But comparing him or any other players to Leo is wrong .
