He doesn't even come close to Messi's level, lost three finals with him and now belittles him

Lionel Messi had a setback in a dream season, when he was eliminated from the Champions League by Bayern Munich. After the failure of PSG, criticism was immediate and now a former player, who had a hard time facing the top winner of the Ballon d'Or (7), questioned the work of the captain of the Argentine team and highlighted Cristiano Ronaldo as a surprise of all.

After winning the World Cup in Qatar with the Argentine team, the '10' of the Albiceleste set out to win his fifth Champions League. However, the dream ended soon after being eliminated by Bayern Munich, in the round of 16. The French press and fans went against him and it came out from Europe that the PSG board would not renew the bond of the former FC Barcelona player.

Now, a player who was humiliated by Messi in the past, belittled him and remembered the work done by Cristiano Ronaldo, who is currently at Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia. This is Patrice Evra, former Manchester United defender, who said: "If Messi had the same work ethic as Cristiano Ronaldo, today he would probably have around 15 Ballon d'Ors. I'm in love with people who work hard, that's why I choose Cristiano Ronaldo on Messi”.

Evra's negative numbers against Messi:

The Frenchman faced Lionel Messi in three Champions League finals. The man from Rosario shone and gave Evra a hard time when FC Barcelona beat Manchester United in the continental editions of 2009 and 2011. In addition, the Frenchman in 2015 ran into the Argentine national team again and also lost in the definition of the title against Juventus.
