The stat for Cristiano Ronaldo having XXX successful take-ons is based on Opta data for major competitions, but other reputable sources like report that Ronaldo has XXXXX successful dribbles in just league and Champions League matches. 

This means the exact number varies depending on what's counted (all comps, just league/UCL, or by season), but high-quality stat trackers consistently put Ronaldo's total successful dribbles well below Messi and nowhere near the claim of being second-most this century.
