Crisitano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi divides people around the world, with many a friendship coming to end over the ‘greatness’ of one over the other football champion. However one couple in Russia went as far as to get divorced over the debate - Ronaldo or Messi!

‘Argumento I Fakti’ a newspaper in Russia reported that a man got into an argument with his wife after Messi’s Argentina defeated Nigeria, reports Times of India.
