The Instagram account of Manchester United wonderkid Alejandro Garnacho suddenly became a place of debate for the best footballer in the world, Cristiano Ronaldo vs Lionel Messi.
Garnacho is very lucky and his career is rarely experienced by other players. At a very young age, he can learn from Ronaldo and Messi at the same time.
Not long ago, Garnacho chose to defend the Argentine national team in preparation for the 2022 World Cup. He even trained with Lionel Messi there.
Meanwhile at the club he currently plays for, Manchester United, there is a figure who is no less big in the world of football, Ronaldo who is returning to this club for the second time.
Impressive appearance at MU U-18, Ralf Ranginck included Garnacho in the squad against Norwich City last weekend. Even though he hasn't made his debut yet, this is an extraordinary achievement for the 17-year-old.
The issue of the Cristiano Ronaldo vs Lionel Messi debate began to emerge, when at the end of the Norwich City match, CR7 gave his 60th hat-trick special ball to Garnacho. Ronaldo's treatment seemed to make Garnacho so nervous that he posted on Instagram that the Madeira man was the best footballer in the world, aka GOAT.
Seeing Garnacho's post, Kun Aguero, who incidentally is a friend of Lionel Messi and also an Argentine player, immediately confronted him. That's considering it's rare for Argentine players to praise Ronaldo at the same time as Messi.
"Because you haven't played with Messi yet," wrote Aguero in Garnacho's Instagram comment column, which drew nearly 329,000 likes.
But on the other hand there are also netizens who defend Garnacho, that he knows who the greatest footballer really is, namely Ronaldo and not Messi.
As for Garnacho's post, it got the most likes, up to 860 thousand likes and 71 thousand comments, which on average debated the quality of Cristiano Ronaldo vs Lionel Messi and determined who was the best. This kind of debate often happens because both players are equally great.
