Gallery: Cristiano Ronaldo v Lionel Messi in Portugal against Argentina

Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, who shared the last six FIFA Ballon d'Ors among each other, went head to head for the 27th time in their careers last night. We have the best pics of the contest for you.

Both superstars were subbed off during the half-time break in the Argentina-Portugal match at Old Trafford, which ended with Portugal scraping a late 1-0 win.

Messi had the best opportunity of the first half, with an effort off the woodwork ten minutes in. Cristiano Ronaldo, meanwhile, also had a chance to score but sent his strike skywards.

Watch our gallery with the best pictures of arguably the two greatest players of our generation going head to head.
