Messi and Ronaldo to Play Together in Tevez's Farewell Match
Carlos Tevez says he convinced Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo to feature on the same team at his December farewell game in La Bombonera.
Gabriel Batistuta is staging a farewell match at La Bombonera and has secured commitments from Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.
The game is set for La Bombonera in Buenos Aires.
"I always dreamed of seeing Cristiano and Leo in the same team. They are the greatest players of all time. I said to Ronaldo: 'Cristiano, I want you and Leo to be on the same team for my farewell match. So the whole world can finally see that magic.' He said he'd be there. Convincing Leo wasn't hard either. They both gave me their word," Batistuta said, according to Foot Mercato.
Ronaldo, 41, currently plays for Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia. Messi, 39, is with Inter Miami in MLS.
