#2 Convincing World Cup performances from Ronaldo
Ronaldo scored 4 goals in the World Cup 2018, being the second-top scorer at Russia, and all his goals have been of top-class and vital for the team.
He single-handedly gained Portugal a point in the group stage fixture against Spain at Russia, scoring a sensational hat-trick, consisting of a penalty, a sublime freekick and a powerful left-footed shot.
Being a captain, Ronaldo has shown more confidence and commitment towards the team, and that makes him more deserving for the Ballon'dOr 2018.
Though both Portugal and Argentina were out in the Round of 16 to Uruguay and France respectively, Ronaldo has clearly contributed more to his country, as Messi has just scored a goal in all of his fixtures.
