Messi always praises him when talking about Ronaldo and says he enjoys competition. Why does Ronaldo always discredit Messi?

On June 24, Messi celebrated his own 38th birthday. And in the past twenty years, Messi and Ronaldo are undoubtedly the most shining two people in football. But the two evaluated each other completely differently on the off-site. Messi admitted in an interview that he enjoyed the feeling of competing with Ronaldo. On the contrary, Ronaldo frequently questioned and smeared Messi on social media and interviews at the end of his career. Why are these two treating each other so differently?

Let's first look at Messi's attitude. Messi has avoided talking about Ronaldo in his career. The reporters tried to cliché many times, but Messi's answer was always consistent. Messi once said that he likes this high level of competition, which helps him improve his performance. Messi has always kept a low profile. He only focused on his football career and was not involved in meaningless quarrels. Ronaldo's approach is completely opposite. Looking back on the past decade, Ronaldo has repeatedly slandered Messi in public. After the 2014 World Cup, Messi led Argentina to the runner-up and won the World Cup Golden Globe Award. Ronaldo was eliminated in the group stage, but he sarcastically said: "I dare not discuss his Golden Globe, I am afraid of going to prison."

By 2021, Messi won the Golden Globe Award with the American Cup Championship. Ronaldo liked a post questioning the rationality of Messi's award and commented on "factos" (facts). Interestingly, the competitors for the Golden Globe Awards that year were Lewandowski and Jorginho. Ronaldo was not popular at all. He had a feeling of "there was a marriage Qiuya, and you jumped and jumped through it."

After Messi scored a barb in the Ligue 1, Ronaldo's sister commented that Messi's barb was not as elegant as Ronaldo. The target of attacking Messi was a weak team in the Ligue 1 team, while Ronaldo's goal was against Juventus. Fans even suspected that Ronaldo himself used his sister's account to operate.

Messi joined the FC League in 2023. Ronaldo was interviewed the next day, claiming that the intensity of the Saudi league is higher than that of the FC League, and by the end of the year it expanded its statement, saying that the Saudi league is stronger than the Ligue 1.

When Messi won the eighth Golden Globe Award, a post by Real Madrid media person Long Zero claimed that Messi won the championship with five World Cup penalty kicks, and Ronaldo sent a reply with a "laughing and crying" expression below.

Then why does Messi rarely comment on Ronaldo, but Ronaldo is always "finding faults"? The core reasons can be analyzed from Ronaldo's personality and experience.

First, Ronaldo is a competitive person. He just wants to be the first person in this era and will never be willing to surrender. But after 2018, Messi's honor exceeded Ronaldo's: Messi's 8 Golden Globe Awards vs. Ronaldo's 5, plus the World Cup championship, the Copa America, etc. After Ronaldo had no hope of chasing him, his mentality became distorted. He could not accept that others were better than himself, so he chose to seek psychological balance by slandering and questioning Messi.

Second, Ronaldo regrets transferring to leave Real Madrid. In his early years, Ronaldo was on the same side as Messi on the Real Madrid platform, but after transferring to Juventus in 2018, his honor dropped sharply. When he was at Real Madrid, the 2018 Golden Globe Awards should have been given to Ronaldo, but they were eventually given to his teammate Modric. If Ronaldo stays in Real Madrid, he may be able to win the Champions League and maintain his competitiveness in the Golden Ball Awards. But there is nowhere to vent this kind of regret, Ronaldo diverted his emotions and vented his dissatisfaction on social media. The large number of fans provided him with "covering" and some people called it "true temperament", but it was essentially a low emotional intelligence behavior, which actually ruined popularity.

This different attitude also affected the career trend of the two. Messi's modest focus pays off: he leads the team to win the World Cup, the Copa America and the eighth Golden Globe. Ronaldo's frequent slander seems to have a counterproductive effect. In the past four years, he has only won one European League championship and is in a championship drought. C Luo’s example reminds us: do more good deeds and keep a low profile in life, and your fortune will naturally go smoothly; on the contrary, ridicule people everywhere will only damage your own luck.
