Ronaldo and Messi will set new personal records in the World Cup next year. Messi is so awesome

The World Cup is held every four years. If you want to participate in the six World Cups, even if you participate for the first time at the age of 18, you will be 38 years old when you participate for the sixth time. Many players have retired early at the age of 38. It is still difficult to occupy the main position of the national team for such a long time. And we must ensure that the national team we are in cannot fail the World Cup qualifiers and miss the World Cup.

Originally, as a goalkeeper, Buffon had a long standby time. He participated in the five World Cups from 1998 to 2014. During the 2018 World Cup, he was still the main player of the Italian national team. Unfortunately, the Italian team failed to qualify for the World Cup qualifiers, and Buffon's World Cup career can only end in five sessions. This is also the current record of participating in the World Cup, but it will be broken by two people next year. That's right, these are Ronaldo and Messi.

Ronaldo participated in the World Cup for the first time in 2006, and then participated in five World Cups in 2010, 2014, 2018 and 2022. He was only 21 years old when he participated in the World Cup for the first time, and next year he will be 41 years old. Ronaldo's best result in the World Cup was the 2006 World Cup. He played a total of 22 games in the World Cup, scoring 8 goals. Unfortunately, he scored 0 goals and 0 assists in the knockout stage. This data is indeed a bit embarrassing. Messi also participated in the World Cup for the first time in 2006. At that time, he was also the team's substitute. He then participated in five World Cups in 2010, 2014, 2018 and 2022. He was 19 years old when he participated in the World Cup for the first time and he will be 39 years old next year. Messi's best result in the World Cup was the 2022 World Cup championship, and the Argentina team also won the runner-up in the 2014 World Cup. In terms of personal data, Messi played 26 World Cup games and scored a total of 13 goals. Now the only ones ahead of him are Mueller with 14 goals, Ronaldo with 15 goals and Klose with 16 goals.

For Ronaldo, he has two records to set next year, one is to break the record of 0 goals in the knockout stage. Now Ronaldo is the main player in the national team, unlike in the 2022 World Cup, he became a substitute. In the 2026 World Cup, the team will be expanded to 48 teams, the group stage will be qualified to 32 teams, and then the knockout round will be held, which means that the threshold for the knockout round will be further lowered, which has created favorable conditions for Ronaldo to break the embarrassing record of 0 goals in the World Cup knockout round.

Another thing that needs to be broken through is that the Portugal is in the golden generation, but the team has never won the World Cup championship. Ronaldo once led the Portugal to win the 2016 European Cup championship. If he can win the World Cup championship again, he will be worthy of the title of King of Football.

For Messi, defending the World Cup championship is his dream, and of course it is extremely difficult. Another goal is to become the best scorer of the World Cup. Currently, he is only 3 goals away from Klose, who is the top player. After the World Cup has expanded to 48 teams, the number of weak teams has increased, which is a good time to swipe the data.
