Cristiano Ronaldo Aims For 6th Champions League Golden Boot, Looks To Break Lionel Messi's Record
Ronaldo is just one goal behind Messi's Champions League tally
The comparisons between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi might still end but the passive rivalry between the two will never.
Now that Messi's Barcelona are out of the Champions League after losing to Juventus, star striker Cristiano Ronaldo seems like the lone contender who might clinch this year's Golden Boot award.
Both legendary strikers have earned five golden boots each and this year Ronaldo has the chance to get past his old rival. What works in Ronaldo's favour is the hat-trick he scored against Atletico Madrid in the first leg of the Champions League. Lionel Messi has scored 11 Champions League goals with two assists and Ronaldo is currently on 1o goals with five assists.
Looking at the numbers, Ronaldo's golden target doesn't seem too far.
