Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo insists there's no bitterness over his rivalry with Barcelona ace Lionel Messi. Ronaldo accepts he will always be compared with the Argentine.
"It is part of my life. It is normal that people compare us," said Ronaldo.
He also denied that there is any bad blood between the pair.
"Not at all. We're work colleagues. Obviously, outside of football I have no relationship with him [ ] it's safe to say a certain rivalry exists. But we must face this rivalry in a positive spirit, because it is a good thing."
