MUMBAI – Indian police said today a man has been charged with
murdering his friend after a heated argument over whether Lionel Messi
or Cristiano Ronaldo is the world’s best footballer. 
They said the Nigerian national stabbed
one of his countrymen to death after the two of them wrangled over
whether the Barcelona star or the Real Madrid forward was better.
Police Inspector Kiran Kabadi told AFP
an offence of murder had been registered against Michael Chukwuma, 21,
over the death of 34-year-old Obina Durumchukwu yesterday in the
northern Mumbai suburb of Nallasopara.
The friends had apparently got together
on Saturday night to celebrate Durumchukwu birthday.
The following
morning an argument over football turned to tragedy.
“The two Nigerian youngsters were discussing football players. One is a fan of Messi and the other was for Ronaldo,” the inspector said.“During the conversation a quarrel has taken place. The deceased threw a glass into the face of the accused person. The glass broke and caused small injuries.“After that the accused took the broken glass and assaulted the deceased person who died due to heavy bleeding,” added Kabadi.
