Zidane vs Ronaldo

Not being a fan of soccer wasnt one of the requirements for this debate, so dont hate on me for getting mistaken between two players known by the same name. Secondly, how the heck am I supposed to know what you mean by "By the way, I mean the real Ronaldo." ? You couldnt have just typed out his name?Anyways, apparently in order to make his argument stronger, the Pro is comparing Zidane to a lesser known Ronaldo than the one I thought he was referring to, The Pro is referring to Ronaldo Luis de Lima of Portugal, not Christiano Ronaldo of Portugal who plays on Real Madrid. Ronaldo was a soccer player from 1993 and just retired in 2011, so his career lasted 18 years which is just as long as Zidanes, however I would like to point out that despite having careers of equal length, Ronaldo has done statistically better than Zidane.Goals by Ronaldo lifetime = 247Goals by Zidane lifetime = 95Ronald has scored over 2 and a half times more goals than Zidane has even though they both have equal careers. Appearances by Ronaldo = 343Appearances by Zidane = 506So even though they have equal careers, Ronaldo has appeared in far fewer games than Zidane ever has, yet he has till scored 2.5x as much as Zidane has. 247 / 343 = average goals scored by Ronaldo per game = 0.720 or about 1 goal per 1.4 games95 / 506 = average goals scored by Zidane per game = 0.188 or about 1 goal per 5.3 gamesI would like to thank the Pro for pointing out I used the wrong Ronaldo, because it turns out that the one he wants to compare Zidane to is actually even better than the Ronaldo I was originally referring too!As for the Con's "arguments" about why Zidane is better1) Zidane may have scored twice, but I would like to point out that the total number of goals that Zidane scored in the entire tournament...... was 2. Zidane had NO GOALS going into the Final match-up but then through sheer luck and timing scored twice. Also you may notice something peculiar in the stats of that tournament.goals by Zidane = 2,goals by Ronaldo = 3http://en.wikipedia.org...2) He again only scored 2 goals in the whole tournament, Also the Euro Cup is only open to European teams and not Brazil (who Ronaldo plays for) so this argument cant be used because we cannot compare the performances fo these two soccer stars in a tournament where only one of them (yours) played in it.3) Zidane and Ronaldo both scored 3 goals in the entire tournament, but Zidane actually needed more games to do that, and even his third goal came off a controversial penalty callhttp://en.wikipedia.org...4) France didnt win the 2006 World cup against Brazil genius, France LOST against Italy, how is it that a "true" fan such as yourself completely imagined 1) Brazil was in the final when they werent, and 2) that France won, even though they lost....http://en.wikipedia.org...5) Zidane and Ronaldo have won that award 3 times.... Ronaldo won in 1996, 1997, and 2002. Zidane won in 1998, 2000, and 2003So let the record show that Ronaldo had won the same award twice (in a row) before Zidane even won his first one, and keep in mind that Ronaldo's career began a year LATER than Zidane was....http://en.wikipedia.org...6) of These are 3 leagues, Brazil doesn't even play in 2 of them. Ligue 1 is french only, and Serie A is Italian only.Again this argument should not be used because you cannot compare the performances of both athletes since only one of them (yours.....) actually played in it. 7) UEFA relates only to the Serie A league, the soccer division that Brazil is not allowed to play in, again this cant be admissable since both players werent in it and only yours was...http://en.wikipedia.org...8) Ronaldo won that award twice (Zidane just once) in 1997 and 2002Again note that Ronaldo won the same award as Zidane, BEFORE Zidane won it, AFTER Zidane's career was already started...As for all the quotes that the Pro found about Zidane, he copy-pasted the entire argument from a wikipedia article.http://en.wikipedia.org...Ronaldo isnt considered in legacy among the UEFA because that is only for European teams, Ronaldo only plays in Brazilian teams, i thought a "true" soccer fan such as yourself would know that..."Moreover, Zidane scored what has been called by some as one of the greatest goals in the history of football."Um, so has David Beckham, Pele, Ronaldo, Christiano Ronaldo, Mia Hamm, and Abby Wombach so this isnt really a valid argument...."Furthermore, it is not called penalty shots, but penalties"I know that bu voters might not, they dont watch soccer (because thats what we call it here in America, soccer) so I put I described them like that so that when you argue that "Zidane scored 2 penalties" then voters dont think its a bad thing....."I guess you would allow for someone to call your sister a whore? If you would allow that, then you obviously don't understand a culture where the sanctity and dignity of women are protected."1) I dont have a sister, 2) I do respect women, 3) It happened once and Zidane didnt hesitate to headbutt him. He could have easily walked away (cause thats what he did for most of that world cup final, WALK) but no, someone says one sly remark and Zidane blows his fuse, hardly something that would define a "great" player wouldnt you agree?
