Comparing Lionel Messi's and Cristiano Ronaldo's FIFA ratings over the years

Sports Brief had earlier reported that Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are currently on a decline from their impressive selves after dominating world football for over a decade.

The two still have the ability to conjure up magical things, but one can't help but notice that they are slowly fading away. The latest edition of the popular video game FIFA 23 underlines this fact

Messi has dropped from a rating of 93 to 91, while Ronaldo is basically hanging by a thread in the 90 category. The last time the two GOATs were given the same rating was in FIFA 2019 of 94. It was the year when Ronaldo had just moved to Juventus from Real Madrid. It was also the year that neither of them had won the Ballon d'Or for the first time in over 9 years after Luka Modric bagged the award.
