🎙️ Didier Drogba:
“Cristiano Ronaldo’s [SIUUU] celebration is not only seen in football, we even see it in graduations. It goes beyond football, it’s iconic.”
🚨 A reporter asked Cristiano Ronaldo for his thoughts on Zlatan Ibrahimović's criticism of him.
Reporter:🗣️ "Cristiano, what do you have to say about Zlatan Ibrahimović's criticism of you?"
Cristiano Ronaldo: 🗣️ "I don't have much to say about him, to be honest. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and I respect that, but I know he's probably bitter about my success.
I have been told many times that he talks me down in interviews, but it's not something I lose sleep over. What I've achieved in football speaks for itself, and it's something he never managed to accomplish.
We've had completely different careers, and the records, trophies, and consistency over the years tell the story. When you're at the top for so long, people will always have something to say about you. Some admire you, others criticize you that's just part of football.
I don't need to respond to every comment. My focus has always been on working hard, helping my team, and continuing to enjoy the game. If he wants to keep talking, that's his choice. I'll keep doing what I've always done and let my football do the talking." 🔊

Cristiano Ronaldo has scored 510 goals since turning 30. Henry meanwhile 411 goals in his entire career. And he has the audacity to lecture Ronaldo on how to score goals !?
He beat you when he was 18, but you're still carrying it with you in your 50s
🚨 Zinedine Zidane on Portugal’s performance:
🗣️ “I don’t have much to say about Portugal, but one thing is very clear: there are bigger problems than Cristiano Ronaldo playing 90 minutes or his age. What I saw was a team full of talented players who are not willing to sacrifice enough for the country. Too many of them play like club players, not national team players.
Look at the great teams in this tournament. They fight for each other, they suffer together, and they do everything to help their leader. I didn’t see that hunger from Portugal.
People say they have the best midfield in the tournament because of what those players do at their clubs, but football is about what you do together. Against Congo, they kept passing the ball between themselves without creating real danger.
If Ronaldo received ten clear chances and missed them, then blame him. But when neither he nor the other strikers get service, the problem is elsewhere.”
