Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi will face off tonight in a game between Riyadh XI and PSG (17:00 GMT) which will probably be the last battle for the two GOATs of this era.

Ronaldo joined Al-Nassr on December 31 on a two and half-year deal as a free agent after terminating his Manchester United contract by mutual consent with the Premier League side.
