The FIFA World Cup is a trophy has continues to evade both Ronaldo and Messi. The Argentine has failed to win any major honors barring Gold at the Olympics in 2008 with his national team, although Ronaldo can boast about the Euro 2016 trophy he hoisted with Portugal.

With the World Cup in Russia just around the corner, neither Portugal or Argentina are strong favorites to win the trophy. Even though Messi won the Golden Ball in the 2014 edition in Brazil, both men have failed to stamp their authority on the competition.

The all-conquering duo have a meager return in the World Cup, with Messi scoring 5 and Ronaldo 3. The all-time record is held by Miroslav Klose, the former German international who scored 16 goals at the finals.
