Lionel Messi won the long-awaited World Cup and confirmed that he is the best player in history. Now, the top winner of the Ballon d'Or (7) gives a lesson to Kylian Mbappé, who they wanted to put at the same level as Leo during the most important tournament at national team level.

Although 'Donatello' is one of the stars of the moment and is designated to be the successor of the captain of the Argentine team, he is still far from the rich sports history of the '10' of the Albiceleste. Despite this, a current from Europe wanted to insert the idea that the young Frenchman is even more complete than the current world champion.

However, at 35, Leo once again taught his teammate at PSG a lesson. Although he no longer has the physical speed of before, he reinvented himself to remain at the top and break any discussion about his hierarchy at the club level and with the National Team.

Lionel Messi's lesson to Kylian Mbappé:

While there are fans who try to put Mbappé on a par with the former FC Barcelona player, his numbers show that there is no discussion about who is currently the most prominent. Despite his age, Leo registers 65 direct interventions on goal (35 goals and 30 assists), in 51 commitments. Meanwhile, 'Donatello' has 55 scores and 17 goal passes, in 55 games. He barely separates them a slight difference and it must be taken into account that the '10' of Argentina has fewer disputed commitments.
