OVERALL WINNER - CRISTIANO RONALDO
It must be said that the tournament being ran by a Spanish paper has lead to players who have played in Spain's top division being dominant.
Paolo Maldini never stood a chance against 'CR7' in the opening round while Pele's elimination in the quarter-finals is the big shock.
Ronaldo Nazario came out on top ahead of Diego Maradona in a tight third place play-off.
But it's Ronaldo's big win over Messi in the final that is the big talking point.
It's a debate that has raged for years with stars past and present being probed for their opinion.
Pele has recently been asked who he believes to be the better player and he gave his vote to Ronaldo over Messi.
"Today the best player in the world is Cristiano Ronaldo," Pele told YouTube channel Pilhado per Daily Mail.
"I think he's the best, because he's more consistent, but you can't forget about [Lionel] Messi, of course, but he's not a striker."
The fans who voted in this poll also feel similar to the 79-year-old.
Who do you think is the greatest player of all time?
