The most common debate in soccer is about the greatest player of all time. It is mainly between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. The public forums go wild trying to make an opinion. Recently, it was the sister of Ronaldo who instigated the biggest debate in soccer, as she shared an old video of Zlatan Ibrahimovic praising her brother. Not only that, she has also trolled Lionel Messi in the process of doing so.

This is not the first time Katia has praised her brother on social media.  However, the Argentine and his family have distanced themselves from the debate. While the Portuguese are transforming the soccer destiny of Saudi, the Inter Miami star is happily living his life in America.

Ronaldo’s sister Katia Aveiro shared a story of Zlatan praising her brother. The Swede had suffered a beating from the Portuguese star in the 2012 World Cup Qualifiers. A year later, when CNN asked him the most prominent question, ‘Messi or Cristiano?’, Ibrahimovic replied- “Messi’s a natural, and Ronaldo’s a product of training,” which he actually meant as a compliment to the Real Madrid legend’s hard work.

Well, it is definitely a compliment in Katia Aveiro’s opinion as she values how hard her brother has worked. While sharing the story on Instagram, she wrote, “Answers are always within the field. Where he was born predestined to shine. What a pleasure to watch these videos. Children and grandchildren and grandchildren’s children will also see how great their uncle who bequests my brother was. Without work, the talent doesn’t use anything.”

Fans of Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi can continue the debate on social media. Meanwhile, the GOATs are now enjoying the last phases of their career, even after leaving Europe. Let’s look at how both the duo have been transforming MLS and the Saudi Pro League.
