Brazilian football legend Pele attacked Argentina's Lionel Messi and rejected the comparison, asserting that he was clearly the best player.
He attacked the Brazil legend in the 60s and 70s, the star of Barcelona, and stressed that Messi's lack of some skills make him away from comparison to Brazil's legendary goals.
"How would you compare a person with a good head and a ball to the right and left, and another person who uses one foot to play, and depends on one skill and does not know how to hit the ball with the head?" Said Pele. ? "
"You can use your right and left foot and you can use your head as well," said Pele, 78, surprised by the idea of an eternal comparison between the two.
Messi, the winner of the Golden Ball 5 times, is known for his high left-footed abilities and lack of head-to-head training due to his short stature.
Earlier this year, Pele said his countryman Neymar was the best talent in the world today, and his preference for Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.
