Ronaldo is about to face Spain for the 4th time in 6 World Cups: 2006, 2010, 2018, 2026
He has also faced Brazil in 2010, Germany in 2014, and England in 2006.
Meanwhile Messi has played 6 World Cups and still hasn’t faced Spain, England, Brazil, or Italy once.
But we’re supposed to pretend the paths are the same?
🚨🗣️ José Mourinho on the refereeing in Argentina's 3-2 victory over Cape Verde:
"We are watching a script, not a football match. Cape Verde did not just play against eleven men from Argentina tonight, they played against the referee, they played against the system, and they played against the entire agenda of the tournament.
When you are a small nation, you have to be perfect to win. But when you are Argentina, you are allowed to make mistakes because the whistle will always save you. Every 50/50 challenge went one way. Every time Cape Verde built momentum, there was a convenient foul given. A 111th-minute own goal? The pressure was artificially created. It breaks my heart for Cape Verde because they were absolute warriors, but in modern football, being a warrior is not enough when the result has already been decided in an office."
🗣️ Interviewer: “Argentina has been involved in several controversial refereeing decisions during this World Cup. Do you think it’s just a coincidence, or do you believe something suspicious is going on?”
Zlatan Ibrahimović: “After watching the game against Cape Verde, I can no longer believe it’s just a coincidence. The referee seemed to give 9 out of 10 key decisions in Argentina’s favor. There were several fouls on Cape Verde players that he ignored. He allowed Messi to take a quick free kick before the defensive wall had been properly set, and Messi wasn’t cautioned. The amount of added time also seemed to go well beyond what was expected.
When you look at all of this, it makes you question whether Argentina is being treated differently from other countries. If you have to win the World Cup amid controversy every time, then there’s nothing to brag about because it feels as though the tournament was made easier for you it wasn’t earned, but bought.”

🚨🤑𝗖𝗢𝗥𝗥𝗨𝗣𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 𝗔𝗟𝗘𝗥𝗧:
Cape Verde had MULTIPLE calls go against them in the Argentina match!
•Clearly winning the ball and Messi given a dangerous FK.
•2nd goal Tagliafico commited a foul in the corner. Goal still was given.
•Clear foul not given in the dying minutes of regular time. Potential dangerous free kick.
Cape Verde went against the system and lost, but they will forever have our hearts. 🇨🇻
Messi en su 6to Mundial, nunca ha jugado contra;
Brazil 🇧🇷
Spain 🇪🇦
England 🏴
Uruguay 🇺🇾
Portugal 🇵🇹
Los únicos equipos grandes a los que se ha enfrentado ha sido Alemania (ha perdido siempre), Holanda y Francia. A ninguno le logro ganar en tiempo regular.
Ronaldo se ha enfrentado a todos.
Porque siguen protegiendo a Messi?
"Lo destrozó"
Porque Luis Figo LIQUIDÓ a JOAO NEVES tras sus declaracioens sobre CRISTIANO RONALDO:
"Algunos de estos jugadores claramente no lo quieren en el equipo. Tal vez piensan que los está frenando, pero se olvidan de TODO lo que ha hecho por este país. El joven Cristiano no necesitaba a nadie para marcar goles. Ganaba partidos él solo. Cargó con Portugal durante AÑOS. Cristiano es Portugal. Merece respeto y el adiós digno de una LEYENDA.
Cuando Cristiano recibió su primera convocatoria, respetaba a todos los jugadores mayores. Ahora tenemos chicos arrogantes… pero ¿qué han logrado ellos? Nada. Él es la razón por la que incluso creemos que podemos ganar un Mundial. Él es la inspiración de todos."
Virgil Van Dijk scoring in a World Cup at 34 years of age.
At this stage of their careers:
• Rio Ferdinand was playing at QPR.
• Nemanja Vidic had already retired.
• John Terry was 31 and had already played his last game for England.
Yet Van Dijk is still captaining club and country, competing at the highest level, and delivering on the biggest stage.
Longevity. Consistency. Leadership.
The greatest centre-back of his generation isn't a debate anymore.
It's Virgil Van Dijk 🐐
- Mo Salah's worst season at Liverpool = 46 G/A — “bad season ” 👎🏻❌
- Bruno Fernandes's best season at man united = 32 G/A — “the greatest individual season ever” 👏🏻
The PR is insane, we cannot compete.
Football data editor at Opta, @michael_reid11: "We obviously have data for all the Premier League era, so from 1992-93 onwards, but Salah's records were so ridiculous that we realised we had to go beyond that. The amount of times we were doing stats and you'd try to put other players up on a leaderboard but Salah would be just there ahead of them. It would be just impossible to get a table where Salah wasn't above this player because he was so multifaceted. What we tried to do was get maybe two or three Salah records or stats lined up before every game. He got to a point where every time he gets a goal or assist, there's some sort of record he's breaking."
This is why Gerrard is not hard on Salah because he knows players of their caliber move different and you can't really understand them if you aren't one of them. This is why players who were not as talemt or great as them won't understand Salah. Carragher is the perfect example
Years it took to win the PL trophy:
Klopp: 5
Arteta: 7
Net Spend:
Klopp: £63m
Arteta: £540m
By the time Arteta won the league, Klopp won every trophy possible.
Put some respect on Jurgen Klopp’s name.
