You guys need to first learn the basics before you go out and play. Take a look at the rules, positions, formations/tactics, then check out those tutorials on how to play/kick the ball.
Football is the number 1 game in 180 countries out of 195. It’s played by billions of children around the world. The best five leagues are in Europe. The fact that soccer doesn’t require any physical characteristics (like height) like basketball makes it so much harder because anyone can play it. The talent pool is worldwide. Basketball is still an American game. If you haven’t played soccer from a young age it’s impossible to make it because of the skill set required. Giannis started basketball at 14 and is the 2time nba mvp.
@LEOMESHI being professional in malta doesnt mean shit and those players have a regualr job. football is a side thing for them, because they wont get payed enough at that level.
@LEOMESHI being professional in peru may be easier than being pro in nba, but being pro in the top 5 leagues is way harder than nba. also nba aint the only basketball league in the world, where you can earn a living.
@LEOMESHI you still don’t get it lol. Billions play football. Scouts are sent worldwide to search for Talent. Nba acquire 90%of its talent through the draft system from American colleges what’s hard about that
I know it’s hard for Americans to understand the fact that you can watch a whole game and not see a goal, but football is more than that. You get so attached to the players that I will happily watch a game with no goals because that is part of football. It can still be a very exiting , end to end game but it result in no goals
American logic hurts my brain. The NBA isn't the only pro basketball league in the world same way the premier league or la liga isn't the only pro football league in the world. What makes football harder is that everyone can play it. There are different ways to interpret football and you can be good at different things. This also why goals don't solely tell who is the best.
That the problem with Americans they are a self centered society which is why there are very quite ignorant of anything outside the States. They are comparing the nature of soccer as a sport with basketball based of scoring, literally comparing two different sports. 🤦🏾♂️then to say Messi is more consistent the Cristiano, omg.
Just get the guy on the left to buy a football and find a pitch, do like five shots from just outside the area and call where you shooting and everyone will easily know if you got tek or not. Also throw the ball in the air and bring it under control and let us see😂 The cap is sensational
You guys are saying that it is harder to get into the NBA than it is to be a professional football player but your comparing a league to a sport. Let me give you an example the NBA is the biggest and most popular basketball league and the English premier league is the biggest and most popular football league. The percentage of kids that make it to the NBA is 0.03% but only 180 out of 1.5 million kids that play football in the uk make it to the premier league that's a percentage of 0.01%. So it is actually harder go pro as professional footballer at the highest level than a professional basketball player at the highest level.
The guy on the left went from saying the guy guarding Ronaldo is terrible and it’s not that hard, to saying Ronaldo is unstoppable. At this point he’s gotta be trolling
Y'all goofy as hell tho I love the reaction but it's more than who scores the most goals lebron on has 4 chips it doesn't make Robert Horry a better player
They actually thought ronaldo went pro at 7 years old😭😭, man ronaldo went pro when he was 17 in 2003. Watch a vid where they explain about europan football instead of watching skills bro.
The only thing im gonna say is that you guys will never actually understand the game until you watch an actual game or watch a video that explains soccer to people who don’t get how it works, just because the stats say 0.80 goals per game it doesn’t mean that messi is never scored 5 goals in a match, don’t get me wrong there has been games where messi didn’t do shit at all but thats the beauty of it even the best can be normal at times, this sport is hella hard too otherwise people be scoring goals left and right every game. much respect for tryna learn more though 👍
Exactly. I am sure there are players in amateur leagues who score 10 goals per game but wouldn't be able to even touch the ball in the UCL. Players like Ronaldo and Messi are delivering consistently throughout their entire career, in the best leagues, at the most clutch times or moments in the sport. Both have an extra gear they can switch into when it's needed. If you ignore context then you may as well be keeping spreadsheets open and not even bother watching or following football.
and secondly you can’t compare every player based on their goals, all these guys play in different positions, Ronaldo is a striker, Messi and Neymar are wingers and Ronaldinho was an attacking midfielder. they all have different roles on the team and all have different playing styles for example messi is a playmaker and Ronaldo is a finisher. Ronaldinho wasn’t known for his finishing but his incredible dribbling and skills, he was also a great passer, same as neymar.
@@themortalace1630 yes Ronaldo started of as a winger but because of old age and surgery he’s been transformed into a poacher striker now. and Messi was a CAM btw.
@@themortalace1630 nope. He was a cf, which isn’t the same. I watched most of his matches in 2012 as I’m a Barcelona fan. He was never the out and out striker as he’d often drop back to the cam role which is where he would start most of his plays. Out of his 91 goals, 25 were regular striker tap in goals.
@@themortalace1630 he was a CF/false 9 not a striker and still scored 91 goals, if he could play as a striker then he would've broke 100 goals in a calendar year which is even more ridiculous
@@asianwarrior2193 yeah but messi played every single game in that year almost like 25 games more than ronaldo because messi was in his prime keep that in mind too
ronaldo went pro at 18, not 7. it’s impossible to go pro at 7 🤦🏿♂️. however there’s academies and youth teams that sign up young kids to football teams from a young age where they develop. and i’m convinced dude on the left is trolling on purpose now
The guy on the left doesn’t realise how hard football is to keep a perfect touch and technique for 90 minutes is impossible, your quality deteriorated during the game, some players although they get tired keep technique and composure and they are professionals.Also less than 1% of people make it pro and as they’res 200+ leagues that shows you quality of players.But the best football is played in the Top 5 leagues which is England,Spain,Italy,Germany and France.In Europe if you live on a street probably 90% of people play football, either for fun or for a club and give it up when going to college
These numbers of average goals doesn't define everything. For example, some players have played in harder leagues than others. Ronaldo has played in 3 different leagues and has better stats in the champions league, which is a league consisting of all best teams in the world in a tournament.
avg goals dont define everything but when you add assists, key passes, through balls, dribbles, goal creating actions, value added per action etc you know Messi is the best
Cristiano was 7 years old in 1992. Soccer players who are stars now start playing in professional clubs basic categories (it's like youth professional teams) usually in that age. Lebron James is older than him and still playing, don't get why you guys always surprised with that age stuff
These dudes forget that other countries have pro basketball leagues and the USA is just one country. Stop acting like the USA is the only country with a basketball league.
In soccer there is no draft , teams get players that impressed them from their academys and promote them to the team. thats why players start being pro at a very young age. Messi and Ronaldo were the best players in the world while being 21 and 23
Yeah i don't know where you get the informations or if it's just badly explained, but i think you can't have à professionnal contract before 16, but you can still play in a professional club at 8, just with kids the same age, you can even be sold to another club at that age
The thing is that you can't compare them only on goals. Messi is a playmaker who's creating and being at the finish than Ronaldo is a pure goal scorer waiting in the box to score.
@@asianwarrior2193 ronaldo play like 300 games in premier league when he was just a teenager, in the toughest league in the world as a midfielder. No excuses but it's of course took a toll on his goal ratio.
I´ll tell why its harder to go pro in football. There may be shit ton of leagues around the world. But there is like 5 good leagues that can be compared to NBA. There is around 250 million football players and there is around 25 million basketball players around the world, quick math says that there is 10 times more football players than basketball players. So 1st of all you need to practice a lot, that is similar to basketball but you must practice more stuff. You must have great stamina so you could run for 90 minutes straight, if you are an attacker you should be able to score 9/10 times, if you are a defender you should be able to never concede and always do well, just to get recognised. If you get recognised you might get to a team and just sit on bench for years. A player could go through his career mainly sitting on bench. Also the injuries are more severe, you could be out for 1.5 years due to an injury and you might never come back the same, also the place where you had the injury might be weaker and any damage to the place could cause another injury which will leave you out for another 1/2 or 1 year.
There isn't really 25 million trying to go pro in basketball. Probably a couple hundred thousand because of height limitations making the talent pool smaller + the majority of players are from the US.
If we’re talking about playing both sports at a competent/elite level soccer is much harder and it’s not even close. I don’t think people quite understand that soccer is played primarily with your feet, whilst incorporating other body parts, whereas basketball is played only with your hands. Humans evolved to be naturally coordinated at handling things. As infants, we navigate the world around us by picking things up and throwing them down. As a result, learning how to handle a basketball (catching, throwing, dribbling, and shooting) is naturally going to be much easier than using a body part that is much further away from our centre of mass, and not designed to handle anything. Just go out and try this for yourselves. Tell me if it’s easier juggle a soccer ball, or dribble a basketball. Tell me if it’s easier to dribble a soccer ball at full speed (whilst keeping the ball close to your body) or dribble a basketball. Before you consider bullshitting, just remember that I’ve played Sunday league every-week still find dribbling a basketball easier at full speed. Soccer is a very technically dense game. Much more so than basketball. There’s just so many facets of the game to train from a technical standpoint that basketball can’t quite possibly compare. Just kicking a ball is so technically dense. There’s so many different techniques of passing with just the inside of the food. There’s ways to make it bounce as it travels, dip when it arrives at the receivers feet, curve, spin, pace, which foot to pass it to, where in the space should it be etc. this is just one very niche style of passing. Wait till you get into other forms of kicking (shooting, advanced passing, volleying etc.) … and that’s JUST kicking. Then you have the harder skills to learn: dribbling, first touch, and ball control … The game is unimaginably dense from a technical standpoint that its an impossible game to master. No one does every single thing great. Then you have the physical side of the game. Soccer quite simply is much more physically taxing. I’ve played futsal (indoors), basketball, and soccer (outdoors). The sheer amount of high intensity running soccer players have to do without a doubt puts them in a different league of athleticism to basketballers. This is why soccer players have some of the highest Vo2 maxes in the world, and some of the fastest runners in the world outside the sport of athletics. I don’t mean to discredit the work of basketballers who are quite simply machine athletes also. I’m just stating a fact that on average a soccer player is much fitter and faster than your typical basketball player. There are basketball freaks out there who are insanely well conditioned, but they exist at a much lower frequency than those in soccer.
They gotta educate themselves more before blatantly putting out ignorant opinions for sure. Or try the sport for themselves against real competition haha
For references sake, Ronaldinho's first 10 years playing pro he averaged over 0.5 (in his prime, when he was considered one of the best if not the best player in the world) his stats dropped after he left Europe to continue playing on a lower level after having banked money just for fun. the last few years he was playing with a dadbod out of pure love for the game. You can compare that with Mbappe who's only been playing 5 years (is in perfect fitness) averaging 0.6. If you wait 5 more years Mbappe might not even average 0.5 which Ronaldinho did over 10 years. To average 0.5 over 10 years in Football is extremely hard and a football players career often goes way beyond their prime cause the players love the game of football, which is the exact same reason why Messi and Ronaldo are so exceptional cause they averaged higher than Mbappe over 4 times as long of a career. In basketball terms it would be same as comparing a dude scoring 60 points average in 2 seasons and saying hes better than a dude scoring 40 points average over 10 seasons.
You guys don't realise how difficult is to score any goal in football. It takes probably 40 attemts to score a goal. And from my own experience I know that I can defend a pesron who is less skilled than me 90% of the times. You watching these highlights with straight faces is a bit frustrating cuz these are legitemately insane moments.
If you’re counting all 210 professional leagues for football. You gotta count all the professional basketball leagues around the world not just the American one 😂😂😂
Basketball also has a bunch of leagues (Spain, Greece, Australia, Serbia, NBA, France etc). Soccer is more difficult at the top level given the immense physical requirements, the competitive European pyramid system, the sheer number of people playing across all levels. The top league (Premier League) only has 20 teams. Lifespan of some of these players is short at the top level.
Being the best in football does not necessarily mean you gotta score the most😂 Lewandowski probably has a better goal average than Messi and Ronaldo but that doesn’t make him the best
Niggaz really disrespected Ronaldinho bro 😭😭 he played one of the most important positions in the game which is to distribute the ball around to an open playing and not to score that’s why he don’t got many goals plus football not all about scoring but team work
@@antonioytm Ronaldo was more of an inside forward/prolific winger which enabled him to be more of a goal threat than Neymar, Neymar is more on the creative side tho
Wrong Ronald there was 2 different high level Ronald’s one from brazil which started in 1992 and Ronaldo(Portuguese) who started when lebron got drafted😂😂
As a defender, watching a flashy player "dancing" on the sidelines is preferable to getting passed by. So if your team is recovering (coming back to defend) and you are one of the last defenders, they you should just watch the guy dance/step-over until half time. If you commit and don't get the ball, then you failed at your job.
Messi has the highest goal per game and on top of that he is a playmaker. He creates the chances for the team. Ronaldo's job is to only score goals. Messi's job is to provide goals for teammates and he still scores more than Ronaldo. Messi is a phenomenon. He is THE BEST EVER BY FAR.
I feel like it's no point in telling these guys about our game it's like someone trying to tell a English guy about American football it's crap to us and always will be
I feel like the guy on the left just TRIES to get viewers mad. It's as if that's his intention every video. My guy, you know nothing about football. You keep saying how easy it is yet you'd get embarrassed if you were to play against anyone even remotely decent. Learn to just appreciate greatness rather than acting pretentious all the time.
He started Professionally in 2002 for Sporting CP in his Native Portugal. However, he was playing YOUTH football from 1992! He also started playing International Football for Portugal in 2003 in which he has scored 115 goals in 184 games (a world record) As for club football (ie, Manchester United, Real Madrid, etc), he has scored 688 goals in 918 games!
There is a cup called the champions league which has the best teams in Europe competing for one cup each year for example Ronaldo's team Messi's team and Neymar's team all in one competition even tho they are in different leagues, that's where you can decide who really better because you can compare the best of the best.
I played football for 10 years of my life and it only took me 2 years to get good at basketball, controlling the ball with your feet is wayyyyy harder than controlling the ball with your hands
Lewandowski has scored 316 goals in 145 games for Munich, that doesn’t make him the best ever. Scoring the most goals doesn’t define you as being the greatest ever
@@a.kiishi6195 look on transfermarkt. Lewandowski has played 354 games, scored 324 goals and has 68 assists. How can u actually believe that stat is real, because that would mean that he averages 2.18 goals per match. Ur source also says that he’s played more matches for Dortmund than he’s played for Bayern which is cap as he played for Dortmund for 4 years and has played for Bayern for 7 years and going onwards
keep doing you guys loving the reactions as a uk citizen I'm impressed on how much you know about the game considering uk citizens know nothing about American football :)
know so much about the game? they know jack fucking shit, and nobody gives a shit about american football cuz it's got nothing to do with feet and a ball and it has forward passes and literal body armour, it's just rugby for soft pussies. Also as a "UK citizen" we don't claim you
I love zlatan but there’s so many strikers that have achieved and score more than him it’s kinda hard to put him top 10. idk even know if he makes top 20 there’s just to many legendary strikers.
Ronaldo played for Manchester United as a Midfielder while Messi always played as playmaker. Ronaldo played for Sporting, ManU, Real Madrid and Juventus while Messi grew up in a dream team in Barcelona
This video isn't about goals, it's a skills🤦🏾 if you want to see goals just go to the search bar and type goal compilation it is that simple, all 4 players have scored plenty. Neymar style of football is very playful, he is always doing little tricks and skills with the ball because that's the style of football he was brought up playing in brazil.
You know why it’s also harder? Balance. It’s harder to have your feet occupied like that & the speed they play at and focus on being great at anything else. I would like to see more people educating y’all instead of being upset. As a basketball fan, I can understand the ignorance towards football. It’s more complicated to understand the entire game of football compared to basketball.
Who told y’all ronaldo went pro at 7 ? The youngest age for someone to go pro is 16 n he prolly wont be starting in a top 5 league team he might start in another countrys league
ZLATAN IS NOT EVEN TOP 20 PLAYERS EVER, the guy talking like he knows everything literally knows absolutely nothing and hes speaking with so much chest
Y’all don’t know nothing when it comes to football deadass. Different positions constitute to different playing styles not everyone trying to be on the scoresheet
Football (Soccer) is actually a difficult game guys it's not easy as u think coz it requires a lot of sacrifice in term of endurance, and healthy nutrition to stay on top for years. Some players even die from heart attack or faint while playing. U have to be suit physically and mentally if u want to last long even if you are talented as f**ck. @RealTalkTvReactions
Nba is US based so even with soccer leagues they are based in some countries so lets say in england they have premiere league thats their nba in france they have league 1 so its like the NBA its jus that soccer is way bigger and kinda everywhere
Whoever says Cristiano isn’t a assister doesn’t watch football. Cristiano is the 2nd highest assister IN HISTORY and literally the best Goal scorer IN HISTORY with 801 goals currently which no human has ever done. Cristiano is the definition of Goat. 1st best goal scorer and 2nd best assister, you just can’t beat that I’m sorry.
Being as consistent and the goalscorer he is he is bound to get a lot of assists since he is often at dangerous positions. Ronaldo is not the player to be creating chances but is a poacher so 3rd most assists in history is still great
All you guys be saying it’s not hard to go pro in but you need understand that all these football leagues are in different countries and they all at high level its just that some leagues are more intense than others for example England’s main professional league is the premier league and that’s one of the most watched and competitive leagues in the world some people be training for years and don’t reach there until there 30s it’s not easy over here to make it in football just because it might look easy to play when in reality it ain’t like that and some leagues are better than others but people only be trying to get to the highest leagues
Ronaldo doesn't start his pro career at 7. He was at an academic to train with other kids and learn football everyday for over 10 years to have a pro career just like Messi at Barcelona. That shows you how tough it is. Most of the pros today go to school football instead of the traditional schools to just make it to pro level. To understand about football career, check young Messi when he was five (5) and you will learn how scouts literally go around the world just to get talented kids
the 2% stat is not from all people. It’s 2% of academy players in the premier league. so from around 10 to 20 thousand players which is 200-400 players. not to mention how hard it is to get into a premier league academy in the first place.
Saying there is only one basketball league but 210 football leagues is actually not accurate, there are over 150 basketball leagues worldwide. If we’re talking of the NBA alone then there are only 4 or 5 leagues( English, Spanish, German, Italian) at this level and getting into those leagues is proper tough.
If you talking about goals Ronaldo might have a little bit more goals then Messi but Messi have a lot more assist them Ronaldo that’s one of the reason Messi is better Messi is more a team player

Cristiano was 7 years old in 1992. Soccer players who are stars now start playing in professional clubs basic categories (it's like youth professional teams) usually in that age. Lebron James is older than him and still playing, don't get why you guys always surprised with that age stuff
him and bron same age
They probably looked up R9 by accident
@@EljaeIC9 Yh😭😭😭
These dudes forget that other countries have pro basketball leagues and the USA is just one country. Stop acting like the USA is the only country with a basketball league.
In soccer there is no draft , teams get players that impressed them from their academys and promote them to the team. thats why players start being pro at a very young age. Messi and Ronaldo were the best players in the world while being 21 and 23
There are even players that their doubt as a pro was at the age of 15-16
Yeah i don't know where you get the informations or if it's just badly explained, but i think you can't have à professionnal contract before 16, but you can still play in a professional club at 8, just with kids the same age, you can even be sold to another club at that age
The thing is that you can't compare them only on goals.
Messi is a playmaker who's creating and being at the finish than Ronaldo is a pure goal scorer waiting in the box to score.
and messi still has a higher goal ratio lol 0.80 to ronaldo's 0.73

@@asianwarrior2193 ronaldo play like 300 games in premier league when he was just a teenager, in the toughest league in the world as a midfielder. No excuses but it's of course took a toll on his goal ratio.
@@ejczuebezogae2261 are you trying to tell me that premier league 2003-2008 was harder than la liga 2005-2010? (When Messi was young)
Then how is Ronaldo one of the most skillfull player in history of fooball if he only score goals?
My niggas Ronaldinho is still one of the goats football isn’t just about scoring it’s also about creating chances what position you play 😭
They said Zlatan is better💀
Which is why Messi is the greatest of all time because he not only scores goals, he also assists and he also creates chances.
Don’t forget he had a party problem, he was a party animal he used to throw the biggest party’s take a nap and still do something so amazing crazy
Ronaldinho comes first then Messi and Ronaldo
Also, yall can't expect goals in an skills video 😂
I´ll tell why its harder to go pro in football. There may be shit ton of leagues around the world. But there is like 5 good leagues that can be compared to NBA. There is around 250 million football players and there is around 25 million basketball players around the world, quick math says that there is 10 times more football players than basketball players. So 1st of all you need to practice a lot, that is similar to basketball but you must practice more stuff. You must have great stamina so you could run for 90 minutes straight, if you are an attacker you should be able to score 9/10 times, if you are a defender you should be able to never concede and always do well, just to get recognised. If you get recognised you might get to a team and just sit on bench for years. A player could go through his career mainly sitting on bench. Also the injuries are more severe, you could be out for 1.5 years due to an injury and you might never come back the same, also the place where you had the injury might be weaker and any damage to the place could cause another injury which will leave you out for another 1/2 or 1 year.
There isn't really 25 million trying to go pro in basketball. Probably a couple hundred thousand because of height limitations making the talent pool smaller + the majority of players are from the US.

I think the guy on the left is the only person that ever said Neymar sucked he’s a playmaker he don’t score much
If we’re talking about playing both sports at a competent/elite level soccer is much harder and it’s not even close.
I don’t think people quite understand that soccer is played primarily with your feet, whilst incorporating other body parts, whereas basketball is played only with your hands.
Humans evolved to be naturally coordinated at handling things. As infants, we navigate the world around us by picking things up and throwing them down. As a result, learning how to handle a basketball (catching, throwing, dribbling, and shooting) is naturally going to be much easier than using a body part that is much further away from our centre of mass, and not designed to handle anything.
Just go out and try this for yourselves. Tell me if it’s easier juggle a soccer ball, or dribble a basketball. Tell me if it’s easier to dribble a soccer ball at full speed (whilst keeping the ball close to your body) or dribble a basketball. Before you consider bullshitting, just remember that I’ve played Sunday league every-week still find dribbling a basketball easier at full speed.
Soccer is a very technically dense game. Much more so than basketball. There’s just so many facets of the game to train from a technical standpoint that basketball can’t quite possibly compare. Just kicking a ball is so technically dense. There’s so many different techniques of passing with just the inside of the food. There’s ways to make it bounce as it travels, dip when it arrives at the receivers feet, curve, spin, pace, which foot to pass it to, where in the space should it be etc. this is just one very niche style of passing. Wait till you get into other forms of kicking (shooting, advanced passing, volleying etc.) … and that’s JUST kicking. Then you have the harder skills to learn: dribbling, first touch, and ball control …
The game is unimaginably dense from a technical standpoint that its an impossible game to master. No one does every single thing great.
Then you have the physical side of the game. Soccer quite simply is much more physically taxing. I’ve played futsal (indoors), basketball, and soccer (outdoors). The sheer amount of high intensity running soccer players have to do without a doubt puts them in a different league of athleticism to basketballers. This is why soccer players have some of the highest Vo2 maxes in the world, and some of the fastest runners in the world outside the sport of athletics.
I don’t mean to discredit the work of basketballers who are quite simply machine athletes also. I’m just stating a fact that on average a soccer player is much fitter and faster than your typical basketball player. There are basketball freaks out there who are insanely well conditioned, but they exist at a much lower frequency than those in soccer.
They gotta educate themselves more before blatantly putting out ignorant opinions for sure. Or try the sport for themselves against real competition haha
The Fat One is wayyy too Arrogant and Disrespectful Af.
you can go pro in a bad league but to go pro in a top league like the ones your watching is next to impossible
For references sake, Ronaldinho's first 10 years playing pro he averaged over 0.5 (in his prime, when he was considered one of the best if not the best player in the world) his stats dropped after he left Europe to continue playing on a lower level after having banked money just for fun. the last few years he was playing with a dadbod out of pure love for the game. You can compare that with Mbappe who's only been playing 5 years (is in perfect fitness) averaging 0.6. If you wait 5 more years Mbappe might not even average 0.5 which Ronaldinho did over 10 years. To average 0.5 over 10 years in Football is extremely hard and a football players career often goes way beyond their prime cause the players love the game of football, which is the exact same reason why Messi and Ronaldo are so exceptional cause they averaged higher than Mbappe over 4 times as long of a career. In basketball terms it would be same as comparing a dude scoring 60 points average in 2 seasons and saying hes better than a dude scoring 40 points average over 10 seasons.
There’s 5 main professional leagues in football. In England, France, Spain, Germany and Italy
To be fair zlatan is 41. Average retirement age as 31. The extra 10 years must’ve pulled his average down🤣
The compilation is called craziest skills and the guy on the left is complaining about goals😂
You guys don't realise how difficult is to score any goal in football. It takes probably 40 attemts to score a goal. And from my own experience I know that I can defend a pesron who is less skilled than me 90% of the times. You watching these highlights with straight faces is a bit frustrating cuz these are legitemately insane moments.
the original Ronaldo (R9) started his career in 92 NOT CR7 he started in 2002\2003
I would actually pay to watch the guy on the left play 5v5 football
If you’re counting all 210 professional leagues for football. You gotta count all the professional basketball leagues around the world not just the American one 😂😂😂
Exactly 💯.
Basketball also has a bunch of leagues (Spain, Greece, Australia, Serbia, NBA, France etc). Soccer is more difficult at the top level given the immense physical requirements, the competitive European pyramid system, the sheer number of people playing across all levels. The top league (Premier League) only has 20 teams. Lifespan of some of these players is short at the top level.
the video they are watching says craziest skills ever and they are waiting for the players to score😂😂😂
Being the best in football does not necessarily mean you gotta score the most😂
Lewandowski probably has a better goal average than Messi and Ronaldo but that doesn’t make him the best
All time his ratio is worse actually. But a prime example is Zidane. Not many goals or assists and still one of the all time greats.
Niggaz really disrespected Ronaldinho bro 😭😭 he played one of the most important positions in the game which is to distribute the ball around to an open playing and not to score that’s why he don’t got many goals plus football not all about scoring but team work
Neymar scores less goals compared to everyone else in the video because he’s a winger and not a striker
Tell that to messi
@@ansumannefati2472 messi is just messi
@@billylouis9971 goat
Ronaldo is also winger just the difference is he scored much more than Neymar.
@@antonioytm Ronaldo was more of an inside forward/prolific winger which enabled him to be more of a goal threat than Neymar, Neymar is more on the creative side tho

Wrong Ronald there was 2 different high level Ronald’s one from brazil which started in 1992 and Ronaldo(Portuguese) who started when lebron got drafted😂😂
5:59 bro I know you ain’t taking saying you could guard Ronaldo like that 😂
My man football is harder than basketball, there is no doubt about that. Guy on the left saying football is easy is trippin
As a defender, watching a flashy player "dancing" on the sidelines is preferable to getting passed by. So if your team is recovering (coming back to defend) and you are one of the last defenders, they you should just watch the guy dance/step-over until half time. If you commit and don't get the ball, then you failed at your job.
The guy on the left chats so much wass acting like he can do all that in the pitch
They said it's easy to go pro😭😭🤣
how can 3 guys talk so much bullshit! proving every american stereotype in one video😂
Ronaldo is like Leblon
Messi has the highest goal per game and on top of that he is a playmaker. He creates the chances for the team. Ronaldo's job is to only score goals. Messi's job is to provide goals for teammates and he still scores more than Ronaldo. Messi is a phenomenon. He is THE BEST EVER BY FAR.
I feel like it's no point in telling these guys about our game it's like someone trying to tell a English guy about American football it's crap to us and always will be
I feel like the guy on the left just TRIES to get viewers mad. It's as if that's his intention every video.
My guy, you know nothing about football. You keep saying how easy it is yet you'd get embarrassed if you were to play against anyone even remotely decent.

Not a season, it was a calendar year and he played 70 games

He started Professionally in 2002 for Sporting CP in his Native Portugal. However, he was playing YOUTH football from 1992!
He also started playing International Football for Portugal in 2003 in which he has scored 115 goals in 184 games (a world record)
As for club football (ie, Manchester United, Real Madrid, etc), he has scored 688 goals in 918 games!
There is a cup called the champions league which has the best teams in Europe competing for one cup each year for example Ronaldo's team Messi's team and Neymar's team all in one competition even tho they are in different leagues, that's where you can decide who really better because you can compare the best of the best.
I played football for 10 years of my life and it only took me 2 years to get good at basketball, controlling the ball with your feet is wayyyyy harder than controlling the ball with your hands

know so much about the game? they know jack fucking shit, and nobody gives a shit about american football cuz it's got nothing to do with feet and a ball and it has forward passes and literal body armour, it's just rugby for soft pussies. Also as a "UK citizen" we don't claim you

Zlatan is definitely in the top 10 strikers of all time in football
I love zlatan but there’s so many strikers that have achieved and score more than him it’s kinda hard to put him top 10. idk even know if he makes top 20 there’s just to many legendary strikers.
Ronaldo played for Manchester United as a Midfielder while Messi always played as playmaker. Ronaldo played for Sporting, ManU, Real Madrid and Juventus while Messi grew up in a dream team in Barcelona
Robert lewandowski has 116 goals in 96 games u should check him and erling haaland 96 goals in 89 games 💨 best strikers atm
U do understand the NBA isn’t the only professional basketball league right?😭😭😭
u guys need to definitely watch a european football explained video
These guys🤣, the nba ain’t the only professional basketball league 🤣
U guys misunderstood zlatan, I definitely been 3 best after messi n ronaldo for the last 15 years
Football is art and not just about the goals. the tactics and how the teams play is what makes it entertaining and the most view sport in the World.
only americans wanna play basketballl tho . soccer number 1 in mostly every country in the world
You need to watch a video explaining how football works
Bro who thinks soccer is easy most likely never played on a competitive level
While throwing a ball in a hoop is considered peak sport but no one under 6’ makes it in.
This video isn't about goals, it's a skills🤦🏾 if you want to see goals just go to the search bar and type goal compilation it is that simple, all 4 players have scored plenty. Neymar style of football is very playful, he is always doing little tricks and skills with the ball because that's the style of football he was brought up playing in brazil.
You know why it’s also harder? Balance. It’s harder to have your feet occupied like that & the speed they play at and focus on being great at anything else. I would like to see more people educating y’all instead of being upset. As a basketball fan, I can understand the ignorance towards football. It’s more complicated to understand the entire game of football compared to basketball.
*sees Ronaldinho
“So he out there just playing around “
😂😂😂🤦🏾
Who told y’all ronaldo went pro at 7 ? The youngest age for someone to go pro is 16 n he prolly wont be starting in a top 5 league team he might start in another countrys league
U are nt eligible to receive a pro contract until ur 17....16 in most countries

I need this video to get that 500 likes so I can see this goofy boy on the left fail to play the sport 🤣🤣
Y’all don’t know nothing when it comes to football deadass. Different positions constitute to different playing styles not everyone trying to be on the scoresheet
Football (Soccer) is actually a difficult game guys it's not easy as u think coz it requires a lot of sacrifice in term of endurance, and healthy nutrition to stay on top for years. Some players even die from heart attack or faint while playing. U have to be suit physically and mentally if u want to last long even if you are talented as f**ck. @RealTalkTvReactions
Nba is US based so even with soccer leagues they are based in some countries so lets say in england they have premiere league thats their nba in france they have league 1 so its like the NBA its jus that soccer is way bigger and kinda everywhere
Lol Zlatan didn't "just had a couple seasons", He pretty much won national tournaments with almost every team he played
Whoever says Cristiano isn’t a assister doesn’t watch football. Cristiano is the 2nd highest assister IN HISTORY and literally the best Goal scorer IN HISTORY with 801 goals currently which no human has ever done. Cristiano is the definition of Goat. 1st best goal scorer and 2nd best assister, you just can’t beat that I’m sorry.
Being as consistent and the goalscorer he is he is bound to get a lot of assists since he is often at dangerous positions. Ronaldo is not the player to be creating chances but is a poacher so 3rd most assists in history is still great
Stop comparing football with basketball bruh
Both completely different games
Relax guys, soccer ain’t easy lol u have to be fit to play soccer if not u won’t last 5mins in an amateur league
All you guys be saying it’s not hard to go pro in but you need understand that all these football leagues are in different countries and they all at high level its just that some leagues are more intense than others for example England’s main professional league is the premier league and that’s one of the most watched and competitive leagues in the world some people be training for years and don’t reach there until there 30s it’s not easy over here to make it in football just because it might look easy to play when in reality it ain’t like that and some leagues are better than others but people only be trying to get to the highest leagues
He'd be playing against other 7 year olds in a pro clubs academy
That 1 goal in 21 games was when he was old and playing in Brazil😂🤦🏽♂️not everything is about goals too lmao
The best season from a footballer ever is messi who scored 91 goals in a calendar year.
Ronaldo doesn't start his pro career at 7. He was at an academic to train with other kids and learn football everyday for over 10 years to have a pro career just like Messi at Barcelona. That shows you how tough it is. Most of the pros today go to school football instead of the traditional schools to just make it to pro level.
To understand about football career, check young Messi when he was five (5) and you will learn how scouts literally go around the world just to get talented kids
Ask urself why NBA players respect footballer's because they have played it and found out its hard eg kobe and LeBron
the 2% stat is not from all people. It’s 2% of academy players in the premier league. so from around 10 to 20 thousand players which is 200-400 players. not to mention how hard it is to get into a premier league academy in the first place.
Saying there is only one basketball league but 210 football leagues is actually not accurate, there are over 150 basketball leagues worldwide. If we’re talking of the NBA alone then there are only 4 or 5 leagues( English, Spanish, German, Italian) at this level and getting into those leagues is proper tough.
If you talking about goals Ronaldo might have a little bit more goals then Messi but Messi have a lot more assist them Ronaldo that’s one of the reason Messi is better Messi is more a team player
Then Ronaldo *
