Messi And Ronaldo Stats After 700 Career Games That Shows Neymar Was Really Underrated In The Past

Over the last 15 years, the duo of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo shared the grand stage winning as many major trophies and individual honours that came their way. From 2009 to 2012, Lionel Messi won four consecutive Ballon d’Or awards, with a fifth coming in 2015. Ronaldo had equalled Messi’s total of five with wins in 2008, 2013, 2014, 2016, and 2017 while the likes of Neymar who were great sensation at that time could not win one.

The question on who is more better between the Portuguese maestro and the Argentine phenomenon dominated the minds of footballs to the extent that other over-achievers like Neymar could not make the conversation.

The arrival of the Brazil man in Barcelona several years ago, really threatened to break the duopoly, but despite all his performances alongside Messi at Barcelona several years ago, he was denied his deserved glory by the dominance of the two wonderful freaks of football.

Cristiano Ronaldo crowned his 700th career game with his 448th goal for club and country when he played his milestone game in November 1, 2014 and scored a 2nd minute opener in Real Madrid’s 4-0 win over Granada.

Though Neymar made his debut for Barcelona in August 18, 2013 after moving away from Brazil for the first time in his career, leaving Santos where he had spent the first four seasons of his professional career, the Brazilian should have gotten the glory he deserved for his immense numbers at that time.
