This very well could’ve been the last time we saw Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo compete on the pitch. If that does end up being the case, Ronaldo will forever have the last laugh. Ronaldo scored two goals on penalties, and Juve rolled to a 3-0 win over Messi and Barcelona.

All of the Juventus and Ronaldo fans got their troll jobs in on Messi and Barca for their lackluster effort. The best of all the trolling came from Ronaldo’s sister, Elma Aveiro, who took to Instagram to bash Messi after his loss.
Yeah, that’s just straight disrespect from Ronaldo’s sister.
Ronaldo, on the other hand, was much classier about his team defeating Lionel Messi. They shared this embrace before the opening kick.
Nothing but respect ❤️
Messi 🤝 Ronaldo

“I have always had a cordial relationship with Messi,” Ronaldo said ESPN.
“As I have said before, for 12, 13, 14 years, I have been sharing prizes with him. I never saw him as a rival. He always tried the best for his team, and I tried the best for mine. I always got on well with him. I am sure he will say the same if you ask him.
“But we know in football, people always look for a rivalry to create more excitement.”
After the game, Ronaldo furthered his support of Messi, saying he was far from finished.
“Messi is the same as ever [on the pitch]. Barcelona are in a difficult moment, but they are still Barca. I am sure they will come out of it. All teams have bad runs, but Barcelona are a very good team.”
