"CR7 will win it again".

 

Brazillian Ronaldo backs Cristiano to repeat 2013 success ahead of Lionel Messi in Balon'd Or list.

Ronaldo Nazario de Lima, also known as Brazillian Ronaldo has backed the Portugese to grab the prize for a second year in a row.

2002 World Cup winner Ronaldo has said that the man with his name will win the Balon d'Or 2014 ahead of Lionel Messi.

Cristiano Ronaldo has been in impressive form this season though he failed to hit the peak in his past three or four games. However, the Portugese has been clinical throughout the year as he scored 51 goals and also won numerous awards. The Real Madrid superstar has been awarded UEFA Champions League Player of the Year, European Golden Shoe, Pichichi award, LFP Player of the Year, LFP Striker of the Year, LFP Goal of the Year award.

CR7 also has a Champions League medal, Copa del Rey and UEFA Super Cup and a Club World Cup still to be played. 

Whereas, on the other side, Messi could achieve only the Golden Ball award this year. The Argentine was even pipped out for the Barcelona Player of the Year below Mascherano.

Though Cristiano had a World Cup to forget in which his side was shown the door at group stages, Ronaldo de Lima believes Ronaldo has been better than his rival this time.

"Messi's  year has been memorable like Cristiano. Cristiano is going to win again".

"I think Messi's year hasn't been fantastic".
