Lionel Messi & Cristiano Ronaldo Fail To Sell Tickets For Argentina Vs. Portugal Football Match As CR7 Threatens To Sue Over Insult Feud Claims

Reports emerged suggesting that Cristiano Ronaldo of Real Madrid refers to Lionel Messi of Barcelona as the "motherf--ker," and it seems he wanted to settle this insult feud as soon as possible. CR7 has revealed that it's a bogus claim, and that he will "sue" to ensure all is sorted as quickly as possible. Perhaps it was an attempt to draw up more ticket sales, with the pair going against one another, with Argentina taking on Portugal, which has only sold a mere 15,000 tickets so far. Will this feud end here?

Soccer critic Guillem Balague has released the breaking story, according to the Daily Mail:

"And that is why, according to some Real Madrid players, CR7 has a nickname for him: 'motherf--ker'; and if he sees someone from the club speaking to Leo, he also ends up being baptised 'motherf--ker.'"

He continued: "In that environment, Ronaldo usually compares their relationship with that between the Republic of Ireland and the United Kingdom. And the Madrid players, with their less-than-subtle dressing room sense of humor, have a long list of jokes that include Messi as Ronaldo's dog or puppet, or kept in a designer handbag belonging to the Portuguese player. And much worse."

"This is absolutely false and I have assured my lawyer takes action to sue those responsible," the Portuguese star wrote on Facebook this week. "I have the utmost respect for all my professional colleagues, and Messi is obviously no exception."

The pair will look to settle this on the field, and then they will battle one another to try and win the major trophies this season, but who will win it, and more importantly, which superstar is the better player?
