The Argentinian of Messi falls in front of the Portugal of "CR7"

The expected duel between Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo in Old Trafford has lasted 45 minutes. The two stars only have contested the first-half of a party that has finish deciding in favour of Portugal with a solitary goal of head of Raphael Guerreiro in the last minute

The Argentinian selection of Leo Messi and Javier Mascherano fell this Tuesday at night in the friendly against Portugal contested in Old Trafford. The "albiceleste" saw how a solitary and unexpected goal of Guerreiro in the last played of the party decided the friendly contested in the field of the Manchester United, in an unfair result for Argentina.

Messi better that Christian. The "10" of the Barça was one of the most active men of the Argentinians during the first time. The Barcelona crashed a balloon to the stick and sent too high a launching from the frontal. To the rest, Gerardo Martino substituted him to test other tactical variants and to other players. Mascherano, by his part, has followed on the lawn and saw how Guerreiro, in the last action of the party, transformed the 0-1 definite in Old Trafford.

The sportsmanship reigned in the Portugal-Argentina contested in Old Trafford, and although Messi shined more than Cristiano, any of the two footballers was able to beat the contrary goal. Like anecdote, fits to stand out that Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo already have confronted in 26 occasions along his career (three in a Barça-Manchester, 22 in a Real Madrid-Barça and a more in a Portugal-Argentina). Messi dominates in the balance with 12 victories by only 7 of "CR7".
