Who is the best player in the world? Cristiano Ronaldo or Lionel Messi? Granit Xhaka has had his say.
“I think we had a very good game. In my opinion we were the better team but the difference is they have Ronaldo,” said the Arsenal midfielder.
“It’s unbelievable what a player he is. It’s not for nothing that he’s one of the best players in the world.
“He’s special because he knows always where you have to go and to be.
“I think we had him in our hands but, in the end, he scored three times and we lost the game.
“I think we can be proud how we play, against a very good team.”
Asked whether Ronaldo was the best player in the world, he replied: “One of them. In my opinion you have two of them. They are not in this world.
“Those two are clear of the rest. If you play at 34 on this level you deserve a lot of respect.
“He shows in all the games – international and with Juventus – that he has unbelievable quality.
“It’s difficult to stop him and he showed up not in a good moment for us.”
