Best Footballer from Each Of The 6 Continents

#6 Europe - Cristiano Ronaldo (Portugal)

Cristiano Ronaldo

There is nothing wrong in saying that Europe is the birthplace of football. The continent still rules when it comes to club games and producing high-quality footballers. From Harry Kane, Tim Kroos to world-class goalkeepers like Manuel Neuer and David de Gea, there is no dearth of talent in Europe. But none of the above names come close to possibly the greatest player of the 21st century - Cristiano Ronaldo.

Even at 33, Ronaldo is still in a sublime form and is a one-man army for the Portuguese Football team. He is the country's all-time top scorer with 81 goals in 149 matches. Cristiano's longevity and consistency have always been his strengths, and his mere presence is enough to intimidate the opposition.

Numbers speak for themselves, and Ronaldo's 650+ career goals for club and country are a living testament to the fact. His rivalry with Lionel Messi has been a topic of debate for years, but one thing is for sure; there is nobody in the European region who is anywhere near Cristiano Ronaldo.
