After the championship at the 2022 World Cup, Messi officially ended the debate about the best player of all time. FIFA also has a move to end the debate and is considered a "slap" in the face of Ronaldo's girlfriend - who commented Ronaldo is the best in the world.

GOAT is the Greatest of All Time, which means the best player of all time. "The GOAT debate has been settled. The biggest prize (World Cup) has become part of the great player's collection.

Ronaldo's girlfriend also twice called Ronaldo the best player in the world at the 2022 World Cup. Georgina wrote about Ronaldo: "When the 11 main players sang the national anthem, all the lenses turned to him. It's a shame that everyone who didn't get to see the best player in the world play the full 90 minutes. The audience kept chanting his name and asking him to come on."

However, it can be seen that FIFA has spoken out as an objective to see that Messi is really greater than Ronaldo. The difference is undisputed when Messi has the World Cup.
