Zambian captain, Fashion Sakala, has picked the better player between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.
Speaking in an interview with Argentine newspaper Olé, Sakala insisted that Ronaldo is a better player than Messi.
He, however, admitted that the Argentina captain is a strong footballer.
The 29-year-old Al-Fayha star was speaking ahead of Zambia’s international friendly with Argentina, at La Bombonera Stadium in Buenos Aires on Tuesday night.
“Messi is strong, but I think Ronaldo is better than Messi,” Sakala said.
He added, “I have imagined playing against Argentina countless times in my mind. I have been looking forward to this day.”
“This will be a very exciting and interesting match. My teammates and I are very excited.”
