@dangermamil @mehdirhasan Hey dont bring India into this discussion. Many in India love @Cristiano and are thrilled by his 2 goals.
Regarding India not qualifying for the WC, it sure sucks but we do hope that one day we will and hopefully the wait wont be too long.

History for @Cristiano! 🇵🇹

Cristiano Ronaldo has become the first player to score in six different @FIFAWorldCup tournaments! ⚽️

[Dennis Bittencourt 🇪🇪 @DennisBittenco6]

Quando o Messi acertou a panturrilha do Mandi, o VAR sequer chamou.

Dai a Argentina enfrenta a Áustria, o Lautaro tem uma dividida normal na área e VAR chama pra marcar o pênalti.

A Seleção mais beneficiada da Copa.

🚨🎙️ Patrice Evra fires back at Thierry Henry for saying Cristiano Ronaldo doesn’t know how to move as a No. 9 inside the box:

🗣️ “It’s funny how Thierry Henry wants to teach Cristiano Ronaldo how to move in the box and score goals. What a joke. 😂

This is Cristiano Ronaldo we are talking about, the man with the most goals in football history.

He plays as a No. 9 and has scored more goals than the very Thierry Henry who is criticizing him.

Yesterday’s match wasn’t on Cristiano, it was on Roberto Martínez.

DR Congo are a disciplined low-block team. They defend compactly, close down spaces, and frustrate opponents.

They are comfortable conceding possession while maintaining a strong defensive structure.

Roberto Martínez should have known this and come up with more ways to break a team like that down.

You cannot keep blaming the striker every time the team struggles to create chances.

At this point, I think it’s personal for Henry and not really about football anymore.” 👀

[(fan) Alex⁸ @UTDAlex8]

🚨 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.”

[M☠️ @thehouseoffootb]

🚨🗣️ Thierry Henry on Cristiano Ronaldo vs DR Congo:

“Let me be very clear about something.”

🗣️ “Every time Cristiano Ronaldo steps onto a pitch, people expect miracles.”

🗣️ “And every time, he delivers something that keeps him in the conversation of the greatest ever.”

🗣️ “Tonight against DR Congo, it was another example of what he still brings to football.”

🗣️ “His movement inside the box, his positioning, his mentality… these are things you cannot teach.”

🗣️ “Even when the game is difficult, even when Portugal are under pressure, he is always there waiting for one moment.”

🗣️ “That's why he has scored goals for so many years at the highest level.”

🗣️ “People keep asking if Cristiano is finished.”

🗣️ “Finished players don't create chances every game.”

🗣️ “Finished players don't scare defenders the moment they enter the box.”

🗣️ “Finished players don't still decide matches in World Cups.”

🗣️ “Now, let's address the comparison with Messi.”

🗣️ “This is where people make football too simple.”

🗣️ “Messi and Ronaldo are not the same type of players.”

🗣️ “Cristiano is about efficiency, power, mentality, and finishing.”

🗣️ “Messi is about control, creativity, vision, and making the game look like art.”

🗣️ “You cannot judge them with the same formula.”

🗣️ “They changed football in different ways.”

🗣️ “Cristiano turned himself into a machine built for goals.”

🗣️ “Messi was born with football in his feet.”

🗣️ “And that's why this debate will never die.”

🗣️ “But what people forget is this: greatness is not only about style… it's about impact.”

🗣️ “And Ronaldo's impact is still massive.”

🗣️ “Even against teams like DR Congo, he demands attention from every defender.”

🗣️ “He opens space for others.”

🗣️ “He changes defensive structures just by being on the pitch.”

🗣️ “That is respect at the highest level.”

🗣️ “So when people say he is finished, I don't agree.”

🗣️ “I see a player who is still dangerous.”

🗣️ “Still competitive.”

🗣️ “Still hungry.”

🗣️ “And still capable of deciding games.”

🗣️ “As for the Messi comparison…”

🗣️ “I will say this.”

🗣️ “We are lucky.”

🗣️ “We are lucky to have lived in a generation where both exist at the same time.”

🗣️ “Because once they are gone, people will realize how special this era really was.”

🔥🐐🇵🇹🇦🇷

🗣️ “Ronaldo is not finished.”

🗣️ “Messi is not replaceable.”

🗣️ “And football will never be the same again.”

FIFA World Cup hat-tricks and the teams they were scored against:

• Ronaldo vs Spain
• Mbappe vs Argentina
• Messi vs Algeria

[Turk Scout @ScouTurk]

🇦🇷🇩🇿 A lot of people are saying Messi should’ve seen a red card 🟥 here, but if you really take a closer look at the situation, analyze his body position, consider the angle of his foot, factor in the movement of the Algerian player, take the emotional context of the match into account and seriously ask yourself why Messi’s foot ends up exactly there…

you’ll come to the only logical conclusion:

That is absolutely a red card.

@invertCucurella But Virgil Van Dijk knew it in Qatar itself

[Blake @tweetsesko]

🚨 “FIFA Aren’t Beating the Allegations” Neville on Messi Incident:

🗣️"I thought Messi was fortunate there. For me, that challenge was worthy of a red card, and I was genuinely surprised he didn't even receive a booking. It's moments like this that fuel the perception that FIFA treats Messi differently. If that had been Cristiano Ronaldo making the same foul, I think the officials would've had no hesitation in sending him off. Whether that's fair or not, those are the allegations people will keep talking about."

@SupriyaShrinate Is he doing any Yoga?????

[Prashant Bhandari @pbhanda]

I request @sanjaymanjrekar or someone else with the same opinion please share as to what did Vaibhav S do wrong!!!!!!

[Sanjay Manjrekar @sanjaymanjrekar]

If I was India A coach or manager I would have left Vaibhav Suryavanshi out for this game v AFG. Only to let him know that’s it’s not OK to get physical on the field. Whatever the provocations.

🇯🇵😂 The most Japanese celebration ever

After Japan’s 2–2 draw against the Netherlands, fans rushed onto Tokyo’s famous Shibuya Crossing to celebrate.

For exactly 40 seconds.

Why? Because the pedestrian light was green.

As soon as it turned red, everyone stopped celebrating and obediently moved back to the sidewalks.

Even in the middle of a spontaneous football celebration, the Japanese still refused to break traffic rules.

@messedupfoods I guess this is a very American thing. In most other countries I have visited leaving a tip is optional.
