The years are silent, in the blink of an eye, born in 1985, C Luo stepped into the threshold of 36 years old. Messi, who was born in 1987, is also showing extraordinary maturity at the age of 34. In the blink of an eye, the two giants of the soccer world may usher in their retirement. Though they missed out on the Champions League and league titles this year, Crowe and Messi's strength is still not to be underestimated. They are no longer young, but their footballing legacy is getting longer and longer. So who is the best of the best?
Back in 2004, when Crowe made his debut with his magnificent skills, Sir Alex Ferguson even sacrificed Fanny's career to protect him. Lionel Messi was just coming into his own and idolized Ronaldinho. And so began the legendary careers of two soccer stars.
In 2008, Cairo reached the pinnacle of his life when he led his team to Champions League glory by defeating Chelsea, and in 2013, he reached the peak of his career at Real Madrid when he won the Italian Championship for the third consecutive year, setting a record that no one else could match. Meanwhile, Messi, under the guidance of Pep Guardiola, became the centerpiece of Barcelona's Dream Team II, winning an unprecedented six trophies and becoming the brightest jewel in world football.
The one-on-one duel between Crowe and Messi on the pitch is always a classic among classics. Whether in the national team or club, C Luo helped Portugal to win the European Cup, Messi helped Argentina to win the Olympic Gold Medal, they are the pioneers of the times, the absolute soccer double pride. In the world soccer Mr. and European soccer Mr. throne, they took turns to sit for ten years.
They are, one is a Messi advocate and the other is a Crow fan. Those who love Messi will reject Crow, while those who love Crow may get bored with Messi. However, these two soccer superstars have always stood at the top of world soccer. Looking at the annual salaries offered by Barcelona and Juve to Messi and Crowe, you can see how much the clubs and fans love them. Which one of them is the man of the hour? Since they have not yet retired and there is still the World Cup and Euro stage next year, let's hold off on jumping to conclusions. Before the players have retired, who is the king, they still need to continue to prove on the field.
