Seeing how everyone is twisting this around like they suddenly lack basic comprehension, at this point it’s obvious it’s just hatred for Cristiano Ronaldo. Nothing he said here is disrespectful to the World Cup or to anyone who has won it.
He’s simply saying that, for him personally, winning Euro 2016 means as much as winning a World Cup because of what it represented. Portugal had never won a major international trophy before. He carried the weight of a nation for years, and that triumph changed the history of Portuguese football forever.
He’s talking about the emotional value of that achievement, not claiming the Euros are a bigger or more prestigious tournament than the World Cup.
But because it’s Ronaldo, people deliberately strip away the context just to create outrage. If any other footballer had said the exact same thing, everyone would call it passion and sentiment. Ronaldo says it, and suddenly people pretend they can’t understand plain English.
At some point, just admit you don’t like the man instead of forcing fake narratives every time he opens his mouth.
Ce qui M’EXPLOSE de rire, c’est que ce sont les mêmes qui riaient de Cristiano Ronaldo quand le but ne lui a pas été accordé car il l’a pas touché….
Qui HURLENT au scandale aujourd’hui alors que le ballon est équipé de la même puce pour savoir si le ballon a bien été touché !
Mettez vous d’accord bande de golmon. 🫤
