  • Maradona : "Goalkeepers are afraid of Cristiano Ronaldo. Messi, not so much because he doesn't have Cristiano's power."

    "What I appreciate about Cristiano Ronaldo is that whenever the team needs him, he is always present, and be careful, this is something I haven’t seen since Cruyff."

  • For Diego Maradona there was only one footballer better than him, it wasn't Cruyff, not Pelé, and yes, it was the Salvador Magico González.

    Look at Messi's face, pure admiration and respect for the Magician.
