Recently, a foreign media outlet created a graphic comparing the national team accolades of Pele, Maradona, Messi, and Ronaldo.
Brazil has won a total of 18 titles, with Pele leading the team to 3 of them. Argentina has 19 titles, with Maradona and Messi securing 1 and 2, respectively.
Portugal, on the other hand, has only 2 titles: the 2016 UEFA Euro Championship and the 2019 UEFA Nations League, both won under Ronaldo’s captaincy. Hence, the media asks: Is Ronaldo underestimated?
