In a recent social media engagement, football legend Wayne Rooney participated in a ‘Winner Stays On’ segment, where he compared his playing prowess to that of contemporary strikers.
The video, shared on the official Champions League Instagram account, features Rooney making selections between himself and other notable forwards.
The clip begins with Rooney choosing between himself and Luis Suárez, to which he confidently selects himself. This pattern continues as he favors himself over Harry Kane.
However, when presented with the option between himself and Lionel Messi, Rooney acknowledges Messi’s superiority, stating, “Messi.” The sequence concludes with Rooney choosing between Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, where he opts for Messi.
