....but he didn't run past 11 players, he ran past 4 players and the keeper. If you look at the reply he used cutbacks so the defenders own momentum took them out of the play, it was like when Cristiano does a stepover and shakes the hell out of a defender to the point of them falling down.

In this Youtube video which was made by a Messi fan, the video actually showcases Cristiano's skill moreso that Messi. At 2:20 of the video Messi did so somethign amazing by spliting the defenders, but other than that CR is just downright scary in his moments.

Cristiano & Lionel

Keep in mind that I dont' even like Cristiano one bit, but I won't deny that the kid is a massive talent and only seems to be getting better.
