I dont think he was the worst player on the pitch in any of the finals, and certainly not in a final where Karius had "that" game
We are just saying he simply didnt perform at a level that the supposed best CL player of all time should perform. On his 6 finals, he never played as good as Messi played on his 3 finals. Thats twice the tries, yet didnt even come close.
This debate started because apparently CR7 is a big game clutch player and Messi disappears on the big game. Well, that is simply not true, as in the most important match in club football, Messi has him beat by a lot performance-wise.
VS Juventus: Great performance
Vs United 2009: Great performance
Vs United 2011: GOAT performance
Im eager to see how you make it seem like that match where the only thing CR7 did the entire game was scoring the 4-1 penalty at the last minute vs Atletico and then took his shirt off is considered a great performance
