Barcelona star Lionel Messi is a hero and an inspiration for millions of children around the world, including the son of Messi's fierce competitor, Cristiano Ronaldo.
Ronaldo won the Golden Boot after scoring 48 goals last season with Real Madrid but, during the ceremony, Ronaldo's son, Cristiano Jr., couldn't help but compare his father's achievements with those of Messi, to the chagrin of his grandmother.
"I don't want to know about Messi," Ronaldo's mother told her grandchild. "Your father has three Ballon D'Ors and four Golden Boots."
Cristiano Jr., simply curious as to Messi's stats, gave a defeated "OK" in response.
