Maradona: I Wish Cristiano Ronaldo Was An Argentine
Argentina's football legend Diego Maradona has revealed that he would have liked to see Real
Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo line up alongside Lionel Messi for Argentina's national side, although
he is adamant he still prefers the Barcelona forward.
Maradona on Monday was full of praise for Ronaldo, but he would still take Messi over the Portugal
superstar regardless of his inability to to help Argentina win the world title.
"Cristiano is an animal," Maradona told TyC Sports. "I wish he was Argentine.
"But I still prefer Messi. He is enjoying playing football and goes by opponents with ease.
"Leo cannot deliver the World Cup on his own. Even if he does not win a World Cup, we will still remember him."
Ronaldo was in action for his national team Portugal in their 2-2 draw against Mexico in the second
match of the 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup.
