[La Derecha Diario @laderechadiario]

🇵🇹🇦🇷🇪🇬 | El DT del Real Madrid, José Mourinho, humilló al fracasado musulmán Hossam Hassan luego de que acusara a Argentina de "robar" el partido: "Cuando pierdes un partido después de ir ganando 2-0, el primer análisis debería ser sobre tu propio equipo, no sobre conspiraciones. Como entrenador, debes mirar qué podrías haber hecho mejor antes de señalar con el dedo a otros".

"No me gustan este tipo de excusas. Decir que el torneo está diseñado para favorecer a un equipo o a un jugador desvía la atención del fútbol. Si crees que fuiste tratado injustamente, presenta los hechos. Si no, acepta el resultado y sigue adelante".

"El fútbol se decide por lo que ocurre en el campo. Si tu equipo no puede proteger una ventaja de dos goles, ahí es donde debería empezar la discusión. Los entrenadores deben asumir la responsabilidad, especialmente después de derrotas dolorosas. Eso forma parte del trabajo".

[All About La Masia @LaMasia_idn]

Jadi, timeline riuh setelah match semalam karena:

- Banyak keputusan wasit menguntungkan Argentina.
Gue setuju, ini sering terjadi di dunia sepakbola. Layak jadi perdebatan di timeline

- Fans Argentina bentangkan bendera Israel
Ini ga kaget, karena Argentina termasuk negara yang menolak kemerdekaan Palestina.

- Messi pro zionist.
Ini yang salah, Messi itu hanya fokus ke sepakbola dan kemanusiaan, silahkan riset sendiri.

Pada akhirnya, kalian di timeline yang ribut2 hanya percaya berita yang sesuai kebencian kalian aja.

Ada berita hoax menyudutkan Messi, dianggap benar. Ada berita hoax menyudutkan Ronaldo, dianggap benar. Tanpa cari tahu lebih dalam kebenarannya.
Padahal mereka berdua ini sisi kemanusiaannya tinggi.

Giliran dikasih tau yang bener, malah denial. Kekeuh saling ngehate. Ya capek juga lah.
Mending banterannya cukup seputar bola aja deh😂

[LIKE LORD… @ukporo1]

This is the coach that said the World Cup is rigged.

Him against Iran.

When it favors you, there’s no rig but once it’s against you, then it’s rig.

Typical Ronaldo delusional fans mentality. 😂😂😂

Es una VERGÜENZA esta clip, había dos argentinos esperando a Speed para pedirle una foto y cuando los ve LOS ESCUPE y sigue de largo con sus guardaespaldas.

[ᜰ 🇦🇷 @markklfc]

Zinedine Zidane on 🇦🇷 Argentina eliminating Egypt and reaching the World Cup quarter-finals after an incredible comeback from 0-2 under Lionel Messi’s leadership:

🗣️ “This is what legends do. When Argentina were 2-0 down, when the world thought they were finished, they found something inside themselves that only great teams possess. They showed heart, character, and the mentality of champions. They refused to accept defeat.”

“Lionel Messi once again showed why he is a player from another level. Leadership is not only about scoring goals—it is about inspiring belief when everything looks impossible. His presence, his mentality, and his ability to lift his teammates changed the entire game. Argentina followed their captain into battle, and they created a night they will never forget.”

“Egypt deserve enormous respect. They pushed Argentina to their absolute limit and showed incredible courage. But this is the cruelty and beauty of football. One moment can decide everything, and Argentina found those moments when their backs were against the wall.”

“Coming back from 0-2 in a World Cup knockout match is not just a victory—it is a statement. Argentina have shown the world that champions are not the teams that never suffer; they are the teams that suffer, fight, and rise again. Tonight belongs to Messi, to Argentina, and to a team that refused to let their dream die.”

🎙️🇧🇷 A lenda do Brasil, Rivaldo mijando cara da seleção brasileira via Instagram:

"Que espírito de luta, que vontade de vencer, que batalha e dedicação de todos! É exatamente isso que o torcedor espera do seu time na Copa do Mundo.

Quanto a falar de Leo Messi, nem é preciso dizer. Que jogador! Aos 39 anos, disputando a sexta Copa do Mundo de sua carreira, ele ainda demonstra a mesma paixão pela camisa da Argentina; ele comemora, luta, chora e, mais uma vez, é o jogador decisivo.

Sou brasileiro, amo meu país e sempre torcerei pela Seleção Brasileira. A rivalidade faz parte do futebol, mas também sei apreciar e admirar quando vejo uma grande partida e um time que entrega tudo em campo.

Jogos como esses valorizam o futebol e são dignos de uma Copa do Mundo. Parabéns à Argentina pela classificação."

I’m going to take my time with this one. If you’re busy, save this post and read it later. If you’re a night owl like me, this is a good late-night read.

Do you know the worst thing about Cristiano Ronaldo?

It’s that he set the standards for what defines a legend… and in the end, he couldn’t even live up to the standards he created himself.

After winning Euro 2016, Ronaldo said:

“You can’t become a legend until you win a trophy with your national team.”

It was an obvious dig at Messi.

Argentina had just lost the 2014 World Cup final to Germany, and Messi was going through the toughest period of his international career. Those words only added fuel to the fire.

Where was the respect for a rival, Ronaldo?

The surprising part was that social media completely embraced that narrative. Messi was labeled a bottler, while Ronaldo was declared the winner of the rivalry—at least in the media, not on the pitch.

Then Messi retired from international football, came back, won the Copa América, and suddenly they were level in major international trophies.

What happened next?

Ronaldo fans started saying that one Euro is worth more than a hundred Copa Américas, claiming there was no competition in South America. Not true—but that became the excuse.

Then Messi went on to win the World Cup.

This time, the excuses changed again.

They claimed FIFA had fixed the tournament for Messi. That the World Cup was scripted in his favor. They simply didn’t know what else to say.

Then Ronaldo himself came out with one of the strangest quotes imaginable:

“A legend’s career can’t be defined by just seven games.”

At first glance, it sounds reasonable.

But beneath it was another attempt to diminish what Messi had achieved.

Before the World Cup, they insisted it would be Ronaldo’s tournament. On paper, Portugal had a fantastic squad. If the manager couldn’t get the best out of them, that’s Portugal’s problem—not Ronaldo’s.

Yet that same Portugal squad wasn’t any weaker than the Argentina team Messi led to the 2014 World Cup final—the same team people mocked Messi for not carrying to the title.

Just a couple of days ago, Ronaldo said:

“The World Cup doesn’t define my career, whether I win it or not.”

A statement that directly contradicts what he had said years earlier, when he admitted that winning the World Cup would make him feel completely fulfilled.

Now you’re 41 years old, Cristiano.

By your own standards:

* You have 5 Ballon d’Ors, not 8.
* You have one European Championship, not two Copa América titles.
* You never won the World Cup.
* You have four European Golden Shoes, while Messi has six—even though you’re an out-and-out striker.

So what now?

Will you keep playing until the next World Cup and become the first player to appear in one at 45, hoping to finally win it?

If we judged you by the standards you created, you wouldn’t qualify as a legend.

Of course, nobody actually judges you that way. Everyone still recognizes you as one of football’s greatest legends.

The real mistake was comparing Ronaldo to Messi in the first place.

That rivalry was exaggerated from the beginning by the media and figures like José Mourinho.

Messi conquered every major trophy available to him, shattered records that once seemed untouchable, and at 39 years old he’s still competing with Kylian Mbappé and Erling Haaland—the stars of the next generation—for the Golden Boot. And honestly, he could still win it.

What made Messi beloved by so many fans is that he never tried to diminish Ronaldo’s achievements.

Ronaldo, on the other hand, repeatedly made comments that many interpreted as attempts to downplay his greatest rival’s accomplishments—and that’s never an admirable trait.

Cristiano helped create a generation that thinks belittling other people’s achievements while constantly glorifying your own is a way to establish dominance.

Good bye. Ronaldo.

Portugal got a penalty when they needed a goal

[Footysm ⚽️ @Footysm]

🚨💣 BREAKING: This is INSANE.

A PR agency reportedly reached out to several major football accounts and influencers on X, offering paid campaigns to push anti-Argentina narratives during the World Cup. 🇦🇷

One large Football X account claims they were approached and asked to post content portraying Argentina’s run as “rigged.”

It could explain why so many unrelated accounts suddenly started flooding the timeline with the exact same “rigged” narrative. 👀
