🇧🇷 Dani Alves se sinceró sobre Ronaldo:
"Cuando salí de la cárcel, Ronaldo jamás me abandonó. Siempre estuvo pendiente de mí. Me abrió las puertas de uno de sus departamentos y estuvo para mí en los peores momentos. Incluso ayudó a mis abogados para desbloquear mi cuenta bancaria y que pudiera volver a acceder a mi propio dinero.
Ronaldo me llamaba seguido para preguntarme si necesitaba algo. Me decía: 'Vivimos momentos inolvidables en el fútbol y vos le diste muchísimo a este deporte. No puedo dejar que pases por algo así. Sos una leyenda y merecés algo mucho mejor.'
Si no hubiera sido por él, probablemente hoy estaría viviendo en la calle. Él es la razón por la que hoy sigo de pie." 👏👏👏

“𝑳𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒆𝒍 𝑴𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒊’𝒔 𝒍𝒆𝒕𝒕𝒆𝒓. ❤️🩹🥺
The pain is immense, it will take time for this wound to heal.
But I also choose to hold on to all the good things, all matches we turned around by giving everything and moments that will remain in our memories forever.
I will always remember the support of an entire country that, together with the work and effort of this group, brought us back once again among the best teams in the world.
Today, it is difficult to appreciate what we achieved… but this group has really reached two consecutive World Cup finals.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for every greeting and every message.
Once again, we managed to come together as a country and stand united, sharing the immense pride of being Argentine.
I also want to congratulate Spain on winning World Cup”. 🇪🇸
🚨 Lamine Yamal reveals Cristiano Ronaldo's message: "I'll frame it and keep drawing inspiration from his words.
🗣️ Lamine Yamal
I was genuinely surprised and very happy when I saw Cristiano Ronaldo's message. Receiving congratulations from someone who inspired an entire generation of footballers is something I never expected to happen this early in my career.
Cristiano's journey is one I've admired since I was a child. To have someone of his stature take the time to send me a message means more than people can imagine. It's not something I'll forget.
I'm going to frame that message and keep it with me. Whenever I need motivation or a reminder of what hard work can achieve, I'll look at it. Coming from one of the greatest players in football history, it's something I'll always treasure and continue to draw inspiration from.
Jose Mourinho on Messi and Argentina:
"This world cup final actually exposed Messi and Argentina, they're not a good team, just reckless tackles which the referee ignores most of the times"
"Imagine having 0 shot on target in 2 hours of playing football, that says everything about them, they aren't that good and if not for some help, they wouldn't have reach the final"
🚨🎙️Giorgio Chiellini:For me, Cristiano Ronaldo is the greatest player of all time. Messi is a phenomenal footballer, one of the best the game has ever seen, but Ronaldo is different when the pressure is at its highest. He turns up in the biggest moments, especially in finals. Time and time again, he has delivered when his team needed him most.
“People talk about talent, but the hardest thing in football is scoring goals consistently, and Cristiano has done that for nearly two decades at the highest level. That’s why I call him the most clutch player I’ve ever seen. When trophies are on the line, you always expect Ronaldo to make the difference.
“I had the privilege of playing alongside Cristiano at Juventus, and I enjoyed every minute of it. Seeing his mentality up close was incredible. Every training session, every match, he demanded the best from himself and everyone around him.
“Before we became teammates, he was one of the hardest players I ever had to defend against. You could never relax because he always found a way. Whenever his team needed a goal or a big performance, he raised his level. That’s what separates the greatest from the rest. For me, Cristiano Ronaldo is the greatest footballer of all time.”
🚨🇩🇪 Thomas Müller just settled the Messi vs. Ronaldo debate
🗣️ “The Ronaldo vs Messi debate will never end, but if I had to choose one player for the biggest games and finals, I’m picking Cristiano Ronaldo.
For me, Ronaldo’s mentality is what separates him. Even when his team isn’t playing well, he refuses to disappear. He’s constantly demanding more, encouraging his teammates, leading by example, and looking for that one moment to change the game. His mentality in knockout matches and finals has always stood out to me.
Watching yesterday’s game, Argentina struggled for large parts despite having Messi on the pitch. That’s not a criticism of Messi every great player has difficult games. But it reminded me why I lean towards Ronaldo in these debates. I always feel Ronaldo’s presence is louder in the biggest moments, whether it’s through his leadership, movement, or relentless desire to win.
Messi is a genius who can control the tempo of a match like no one else. He can dictate play and unlock defenses with a single pass. But if I’m choosing one player to inspire a team when everything is on the line, I’m taking Cristiano Ronaldo every time.
That’s why, for me, Ronaldo gets the edge. 🐐
Sir Alex Ferguson on Lionel Messi’s performances at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
🗣️ “I’ve spent my entire life watching football. I’ve managed against the greatest players, coached some of the best and witnessed generations of talent. But what Lionel Messi is doing at 39 years old is beyond anything I’ve ever seen.”
“Most players at that age are long retired or struggling to keep up with the pace of the modern game. Messi? He’s carrying Argentina to another World Cup final. He isn’t surviving he’s dominating. That’s the difference.”
“People keep asking how he’s still doing it. The answer is simple: his football brain is decades ahead of everyone else. He doesn’t need to outrun you anymore because he’s already seen the next three passes before you’ve taken your first step.”
“Look at this tournament. Every time Argentina needed someone to stand up, Messi answered. When they were under pressure, he demanded the ball. When England thought they had one foot in the final, Messi completely changed the game with two outrageous assists. That’s what greatness looks like.”
“You can organise your defence perfectly, assign two or three players to mark him and spend months analysing every movement he makes. None of it guarantees anything because he only needs one second to destroy ninety minutes of hard work.”
“What amazes me most isn’t the ability it’s the mentality. The bigger the occasion, the calmer he becomes. While everyone else feels the weight of a World Cup, Messi plays as if he was born for these moments. That’s why he keeps breaking hearts and making history.”
“I’ll say something that some people won’t like, but I don’t care. We will never see another footballer like Lionel Messi. When he retires, an era of football retires with him. Players will win Ballons d’Or, score hundreds of goals and lift trophies, but nobody will combine genius, consistency, longevity and humility the way he has.”
“Enjoy every minute he’s still on the pitch, because when Lionel Messi walks away from football, the game will lose a little piece of its soul. There will be great players after him but there will never be another Lionel Messi.
🚨Kylian Mbappé share message Cristiano Ronaldo sent him after France booked their place in the World Cup Semi-finals.
🗣️The first message I received after the match was from Cristiano Ronaldo.
He wrote: 'Congratulations, Kylian. Missing a penalty and still finding the strength to score is what champions do. The greatest players are not remembered because they never failed they're remembered because they always responded. Keep believing. France needs your leadership. Good luck for the rest of the tournament.'
🗣️Receiving that message meant more to me than people can imagine. Growing up, Cristiano Ronaldo wasn't just my favourite player he was my idol. To me, he was like a god. I spent countless hours watching his matches, studying every movement, every goal, every celebration and every sacrifice he made to become the greatest.
🗣️A huge part of the footballer I am today comes from everything I learned by watching Cristiano. His mentality taught me that talent alone is never enough hard work, discipline and resilience are what create legends.
🗣️To receive words of encouragement from the man who inspired my dream is something I'll carry with me forever.
🚨José Mourinho on Cristiano Ronaldo:
🗣️Reporter:
“Would you say Cristiano Ronaldo is the greatest Portuguese player of all time?”
🗣️Mourinho:
“Cristiano achieved what all the great Portuguese legends before him couldn’t: he won Portugal’s only three major international trophies. That alone puts him in a special place in our history. Now, let’s see if someone in the future can achieve what Cristiano couldn’t and bring the World Cup to Portugal. He did his part. He carried the country further than those before him, and now it’s time for the next generation to carry the dream forward.”
Egyptian forward Mohamed Salah completely blasted FIFA after Egypt’s loss to Argentina today, claiming that the organization is doing everything possible to ensure Argentina wins the World Cup again.
“I really don’t understand why FIFA has been so biased against African teams throughout this tournament, and you could clearly see it tonight. The referee was awarding unnecessary fouls against us. The goal that was disallowed should have stood.
I don’t understand why it was ruled out. I just felt FIFA wanted Argentina to qualify. I just watched a video in the dressing room after we scored, and the FIFA president was clearly angry. That should tell you all you need to know about them. They want more money, which is why they didn’t want Argentina to go out early in the tournament. I know I will be criticized for this, but it’s the truth. I don’t care.”
🚨🇦🇷🇪🇬 Rio Ferdinand: “Football Needs Fairness, Not Different Rules For Different Teams”
🗣️ “I’ve sat here and watched football for many years, both as a player and as a pundit, and what frustrates supporters the most is inconsistency.
When Argentina go down under a challenge, the whistle seems to come immediately. The officials are quick to spot the foul, quick to stop play and quick to protect them. But when Egypt are on the receiving end of similar incidents, suddenly the game is allowed to continue and everyone is told to move on.
That’s the issue people have tonight. Not the result itself, but the lack of consistency in the decision-making.
Then you look at the build-up to Enzo Fernández’s winning goal. Egypt were screaming for a foul, their players were surrounding the referee, and millions watching expected VAR to at least take a proper look at it. Instead, it felt like everyone in the VAR room had gone to sleep.
What exactly is VAR there for if not to review the biggest moments in the biggest matches?
If that incident happened against Argentina at the other end of the pitch, do you honestly believe it wouldn’t have been checked? I find that very difficult to believe. We’ve seen much softer incidents reviewed throughout this tournament.
That’s where the frustration comes from. Fans just want the same standard applied to every team.
And let’s talk about the disciplinary side of the game. Argentina seem to get away with an awful lot. There are challenges that would normally bring yellow cards, yet the referee appears reluctant to reach for his pocket. It’s almost as if officials are afraid of making decisions that might upset Argentina.
When you look at some of Argentina’s matches in this tournament, there have been several moments where opponents felt hard done by. One incident can be debated, two incidents can be debated, but eventually people start noticing a pattern.
Football cannot afford that perception. The integrity of the game depends on supporters believing that every nation is treated equally.
Whether you’re Argentina, Egypt, Brazil, France or anyone else, the laws of the game should not change depending on the badge on your shirt.
The officials tonight had a responsibility to be fair, balanced and brave. Instead, they have left millions of people questioning why some decisions are given so easily for one side while similar incidents involving the other side are ignored.
Football deserves better than that. The players deserve better than that. And the fans certainly deserve better than that.”
