Cristiano Ronaldo couldn’t help himself, sending another message to rival Lionel Messi as the debate over who is football’s greatest player of all time exploded again.

In a wonderfully petty move Ronaldo continued his playful attack on rival Lionel Messi as the debate over who is football’s greatest player continues to dominate discussion in Russia.

The Argentine began the back-and-forth by posing in a photograph with a goat in a cheeky promotion by Adidas.








Ronaldo appeared to respond by stroking his chin after scoring three times in Portugal’s opener against Spain in a move many took to mean he was suggesting he’s the GOAT.








And the conspiracy theorists were at it again as the Real Madrid striker arrived on Wednesday sporting a freshly-grown goatee.







So who claims the time spot, and will this World Cup help seal the tag of Greatest of all Time? These are two of the greatest players to hit the field of course. Is the rivalry back in full swing, and what can we expect from these two in the 2018 World Cup? I'm sure nothing but amazing play and off field antics.
