#2 Aerial strength
It is true that many people liken Cristiano Ronaldo to a machine. This is because of his amazing completeness and superb body structure. The Portuguese is one of the most-complete players to ever play the game.
This season, he has used his amazing advantage to overtake his South American rival in several areas, including the air. His aerial contributions this term are far above that of the Argentine.
The Portuguese has scored 2 headers in the UEFA Champions League and 4 in La Liga. Whereas, the Barcelona playmaker is yet to score a single goal with his head during the campaign.
To add to that, Ronaldo has won 31 aerial duels in La Liga and 11 in the Champions League while Leo has recorded just 5 in the Spanish top division and just 1 in Europe.
