Brazil's Kaka with Argentina's Lionel Messi

The Brazilian attacking midfielder Ricardo Kaka expressed his admiration for Argentina’s number 10 winger Lionel Messi. According to Real Madrid’s ace, Messi is currently the best player in the world, and he deserves to win all the awards which will be given later this year.

In an interview with the press, this is what Kaka said:

“He is a player who makes a difference, I would vote for him for all he has done, leading Barcelona to all these titles.

“It remains my objective to get back there and win it.”

Kaka then answered questions asking how he and Messi would play this weekend against each other.

“The media always talks about a duel, that was the case with me and Cristiano Ronaldo too, but on the field it’s not like that. It will be Brazil vs Argentina and both teams have several talented players on both sides.”

The Brazilian then went on to explain how he planned to be a better player.

“I opted for a mix so I can be a complete player, I’m not a great artist like Maradona was, I know my limitations and that talent alone is not enough. The ideal is to mix art and efficiency.”

The former Milan attacker, who scored 11 goals in his previous WC Qualifiers, is likely to make history in his match against Argentina, as he could equal Zico and Romario’s goal record for Brazil in World Cup Qualifiers.

“It would be special to do it against Argentina, but there still are four matches left and hopefully I’ll be able to reach that mark, which would be nice because I’m not really a true striker.”
