While he is lucky to have played alongside both, this privilege has helped him better understand the difference between both superstars of football.
Messi says Ronaldo is the best striker he has ever seen
The Argentine striker recently explained why Ronaldo and Messi are world-class but yet so different in how they do things.
Tevez explains by telling a story about Ronaldo's training ritual. "He spends the entire day in the gym, it's an obsession. I remember that we needed to train at 9, I arrived at 8 and he was already there. So I tried to arrive at 7:30 and he was already there. One time I did everything to get there before him, I arrived at the pitch at 6:30, but he was already there. He was half asleep but there he was."

I deserve more Ballon d'Or awards than Messi, says Ronaldo
He continued by explaining how Messi went about things in training.
"Messi isn't like this, to him it all comes naturally. But for what doesn't come natural to him, he trains for. One time he wasn't kicking free kicks well, now he puts them all in the corner. He trained and improved," said the Boca Juniors forward.
