Cristiano and Messi, Messi and Cristiano. The Argentinian's hat-trick against Sevilla and Ronaldo’s double in Ipurua, just the latest example that these are the planets most decisive football players and they feed off each other since they began to share the same eco-system, the Spanish league. The statistics are telling: since the 2009-10 season, the first when their paths crossed in La Liga, both have an average of over one goal per league game. Cristiano 1,11 (197 goals in 176 games) and Messi 1,10 (199 in 180 games)...

In the 2010-11 season, Cristiano scored 40. Messi promptly responded by scoring 50 goals the following season.
