Messi: I miss having Ronaldo in La Liga

The Portugal star's move from Real Madrid to Juventus has left the Barcelona captain missing his old rival

Lionel Messi says he misses facing rival Cristiano Ronaldo as the former Real Madrid forward gave "prestige" to La Liga.

After helping Madrid win a fourth Champions League title in five years, Ronaldo left the club to join Serie A giants Juventus in July.

Ronaldo has continued to save his best for Europe's elite club competition, with a hat-trick against Atletico Madrid firing Juve into the quarter-finals of the Champions League.
