Troost-Ekong was asked who is his goat Between Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo:
" I don't want to get m@d, When he (Messi) scored the opening goal against us (Nigeria) at the World Cup, it was like slow motion, you can't really do anything you just have to watch him.
"I was close to cheering him because he was fantastic. He is a different quality. You can't see that he's reading the game, but when he comes alive there is not much you can do."
"I had the pleasure of playing against him (Ronaldo) in Italy. When he was playing for Juventus and I was playing for Udinese, he was an out-to-out number nine at that point.
"Of course, I grew up watching him as a winger. In Italy, he was very sharp, a great finisher, you just really can't take your eye off him if you're a defender," he said.
