I'm amused by Cristiano Ronaldo, he is a terrific player.

He is a unique player.

I like Messi too. How can you decide who is the best?

If you compare their individual awards, you cannot.

I think that those two will be remembered as the best players in history.

For Messi, his football is based on his talent, on his view of the game

on his technique, and the way he controls the pace of the game.

Cristiano Ronaldo has focused on dribbles and uses flare and technique to score goals.

Messi's destiny was changed when Barcelona's team brought him here when he was very young.

He was educated here, it was the Barcelona team that invested in his education.

It was Barca that paid for his hormone therapy when he wasn't growing.

When he arrived here, they introduced him to me.

They said that he had to come inside with me.

I brought him to the locker room.

He was a shy kid. My first impression was that he was a kid with a child-like body, but normal.

His main skill was how fast he moved with the ball between his feet, and his balance, he already had a very clear skill set.

The goals that we see now, running 30-40 meters, dribbling through his adversaries, he could score those as a kid.

For Cristiano, his time at Manchester United was crucial. When he trained there,

he worked to transform his physique from a boy's to a competitor's.

He can score with his head, he can kick with both feet, and he worked to become faster, more powerful.

Messi, even if he is an individual, even if he is a player who can decide the match,

he understands he is not the only player in the field.

He understands that there are many other players.

Cristiano Ronaldo is the opposite.

Cristiano is a terrific striker.

He will run, go to the goalkeeper and say "give me the ball." This is Barcelona's strength.

So if he has to go all the way, he has to pass it until, they eventually, Busquets,

or Puyol or Rafael, whoever is playing. 1 and nil.

In the end in soccer, it is like in everything,

you have people who like a more aggressive player,

who is flashier, or who has a nicer body,

and other people who prefer elegant and more technical players.

For many years he played as a second striker, until they changed his position.

But when he comes onto the field, all the players say:

"He is arriving, Leo Messi is arriving, danger!"

He can score with a free kick, and with a kick from outside the box.

They're equal when it comes to victories, but that does not mean anything

because, in any year, one can do better or worse than the other.

One might have scored more or fewer goals, won more or fewer awards,

but these do not define who is the best.

Hi Monica, what are you preparing for us?

We are going to prepare an ox crab tartlet

and we mix it with a tartare sauce.

Then we finish it with some avocado shaped like a flower

and finally we decorate it with condiments and aromas.

This is called pasta "filo." It has very thin layers, to which we add some vinegar

and we clear it with a little bit of egg whites.

We have here the dough.

This is the tartare with ox crab.

Clearly those are tastes that we all have in our memories.

We play a little bit with memory when we eat.

So when I eat, I remember dishes that my mother cooked, or dishes that my grandmother cooked.

It is like a soccer pitch, it seems like we are...

Yes, it is true.

Shall I cut it at once?

It is very good.

I think that Ronaldo has a more showy personality.

Cristiano Ronaldo has the stronger personality. He likes to be the center of attention.

He is a person who is not afraid of pressure.

Cristiano is a player who likes to show off a lot

because he has an enviable body, he has the look of a model. This is something that the brands know.

This is why he has more sponsors than Leo Messi.

Leo is a player who is more down to earth.

The brands are, of course, interested in him.

But he is a more introverted person, much more focused on a family-oriented lifestyle.

Rosa Clara is a company located in Barcelona, in Spain.

Our focus is weddings and ceremonial dresses.

We have stores in more than 70 countries.

Our relationship with Antonella goes back many years.

When she first came to Spain

we were with her in every special moment.

For her wedding to Leo Messi, we did two dresses.

One for the ceremony, and one more relaxed and comfortable dress for the party

for when she is dancing.

It makes sense to say "It would be so wonderful to be Cristiano Ronaldo"

because he has a lot of money, he is famous, he is successful.

But he is sacrificing a lot.

He does not hang out, he has a solitary life...

Cristiano is very present on social media. That might be a "double-edged" sword,

but in the same moment that he shares his personal life

and he shows us his house, his cars, his travels, his businesses

at the same time he also shows us his charity work, his generosity.

He donates every few months, he has donated a lot of money to wildfire relief in his country.

Nobody speaks badly of Cristiano

because Cristiano has invested heavily in his people and in his country.

The same goes for Leo Messi. He has a foundation with more than 50 spots for kids from all around the world.

They are people who have a lot, but who also give a lot.

Today the players are very important as role models, as icons, for young people, for society.

I think those two players have not lost themselves in parties, scandals, none of it,

They are known only as soccer players, Messi and Cristiano are known only for that

and for having a peaceful life with their families, kids, their friends and their followers.

The World Cup is very beautiful. I think it will be very difficult for every team.

I think that winning the World Cup is very important for any star.

It was important to all of the greatest players in history, Di Stefano, Pelé, Maradona, Cruyff.

The story that a player like Messi has a bad history with the national team seems to me to be a lie.

In my opinion, he does not need to win with the national team to be one of the best players in history, because he is the best.

And in the case of Cristiano, he would have been in the same situation, if he had not won the European Cup last year with his national team.

I think it is very important for them to give their country a victory, like Maradona did in his time, Pelé in his time...

The life of a superstar is always difficult.

I don't think that they will become managers

because to be a manager or a sports director, you have to listen and to talk to everyone.

Those are thankless jobs for soccer players, especially for top players

like Cristiano and Messi, who are making soccer history.

Those jobs would not be rewarding for them.

I think that both Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi haven't asked themselves what they will do in the future

because, until now, they were only soccer players.

Because of their childhood and the time they invested in soccer, and the fact that they never had time to study or to learn another skill.

Honestly, I think that they will take care of their businesses, Cristiano has his hotels and brands,

but Leo Messi is a mystery, because

yes, it is true that he owns different accessories brands,

but we really do not know what he will do.

I would be happy if he decides to stay and live here.

I think he is living in a nice time here in Barcelona,

I think he is happy here, with his life outside of soccer. I have seen that he started some small ventures

but I also think that he would like to move back to Rosario, to his hometown,

and I understand that.

I think that they will be very well off, Messi and Cristiano

for many years and for many generations.
