5 reasons why Neymar will outshine Cristiano Ronaldo in the Champions League

#4 Neymar reaching his peak

Neymar is in prime form

As mentioned earlier, the Brazilian shares the same birthday as the Real Madrid star. And he has just turned 26, which is the beginning of his peak years as an attacker. Indeed, we can all take a leaf out of Cristiano Ronaldo’s history book and know that 26-31 are perhaps the best years for an attacker.

And it is truly visible in the case of the Brazilian.

While the former Barcelona star is playing in an inferior league compared to La Liga, his performances in the Ligue 1 is nothing short of extraordinary. Time and time again, he has shown that he might be much bigger than the league itself.

The way he currently leads the attack for the Parisians only adds more to his confidence.
