Win the UEFA Champions League with Real Madrid; win the 2018 FIFA World Cup with Portugal, and a sixth Ballon d'Or is but a mere formality for Cristiano Ronaldo. Lionel Messi already individually outperformed Ronaldo in 2017, but the Portuguese star ran away with the award for inspiring Real Madrid to some silverware.

It's a long way from 2013, when Lionel Messi had 4 Ballon d'Or trophies to his name and Ronaldo only had one. It takes a special belief to take that situation to the 5-5 it is now.

The 6th Ballon d'Or will truly be a special one, if it happens. Cristiano Ronaldo, can perhaps finally end the debate, as no player has ever done it. For another year at least, he can claim to be officially better than Lionel Messi.
