I am pretty sure Sasuke said he had much better control after learning how to use it vs madara /kaguya. I agree they they are close in terms of strength. However, as you said, it was a tie in the end, yet Sasuke had to resort to absorbing Biju chakra while Naruto had already lost a great deal of chakra in his previous fights (he has been fighting almost continuously for days now. This fight started with the encounter with Six Paths of Obito. He then fought six tailed beasts, Obito, Madara, Ten Tails, Juubito, Juubi-madara and Kaguya while spamming massive amounts of his own, Kurama's and natural chakra while Sasuke was fairly modest in his use, focusing mostly on Susanoo.

Therefore, since they were equals in that fight, remove the control of 9 tailed beasts and Naruto > Sasuke. Naruto already lost his Biju chakra and Truth Balls. Later he posses the other half of Kurama. So in the end, Naruto is stronger than Sasuke.
