Real Madrid CF v FC Barcelona - La Liga

Ronaldo's sole competitor, Lionel Messi has enthralled fans for many years, and his battle with Ronaldo has been even more interesting. The Barcelona skipper is a great player, and has been involved in a goal every 50 minutes this season. He has been the best player this season by far, and is the front runner for the Ballon d'Or. He has already won the award a record 5 times, and could break the record and make it 6.

The Argentine sensation has scored 33 goals and assisted 18 goals in 34 games this season. His dribbling skills are sublime and with his pace, he is simply unstoppable. He can score goals from direct free-kicks and is perhaps, the best free-kick taker of this generation. He isn't just a serial goal scorer and is as creative as anybody. In fact, he is on top of the pile for both goals scored and supplying assists. Hence, there is no doubting his top spot on the list.
