From the last interview Xavi were he tip Messi over C. Ronald, There's not let-up from Xavi
Hernandez in how he considers Cristiano Ronaldo to be lagging behind
Lionel Messi, a statement the ex-Barcelona star has no intention of
withdrawing.
Almost a month ago now, the Real Madrid winger took a sly dig at Xavi's lack of Ballon d'Or awards amid suggestions in the opposite direction that Messi would always cast a shadow over Ronaldo.
"I
saw that he didn't take it well, but I still think the same thing," the
Spaniard told reporters of Spanish TV station La Sexta.
"He told me about his Ballon d'Or tally, which is true but my opinion doesn't change."
Despite the acrimony surrounding the pair, Xavi has surprisingly tipped Ronaldo for the 2016 edition of the prestigious award.
"If they vote because of titles, Ronaldo will be favourite, but it will be tough up against Messi."
