The World Cup's competition format is held only every four years, which is more beneficial to big football countries such as Brazil, Argentina, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, Italy, and Spain, because these countries have profound football heritage and endless talents. Although Portugal is also a strong football country, it is obviously not on the same level as the traditional powers in Europe and the United States. Therefore, it is obviously unfair to Ronaldo to use the World Cup championship as the hard threshold for "Ball King".
The ball king should be an iconic figure of an era and has an absolute advantage over other players of the same generation. Messi fits this point, and so does Cristiano Ronaldo. 5 times Golden Globe Award , 4 times European Golden Boot Award , 5 times World Footballer , 7 times Champions League top scorer, as well as European Cup champion, 5 Champions League champions, in addition to the World Cup, he has almost achieved an honorary Grand Slam. The total of 817 goals scored ranks first in history. With such influence, he is only ranked 8th. How unfair is Ronaldo.
As the saying goes: when a tree falls, the hozens will scatter; when the wall falls, everyone will push it away. The coming period will be very difficult for Ronaldo. Although competitive sports are cruel, I still hope that Ronaldo can have a warmer ending.
