Highlights
- The debate between Messi and Maradona as the greatest footballer ever continues, with fans having differing opinions, especially among Argentinians.
- While Messi's stats at the national level, including goals and assists, make him the clear winner, some fans still believe Maradona is the superior player due to his innate talent and influence on Argentina's success in the 1986 World Cup.
- Maradona's appeal as a player extends beyond his footballing skills, as his personality and flaws resonated with fans in a way that Messi's more reserved demeanour does not. Picking between the two is a tough question for any Argentina fan.
