Media won't tell you this kind of story!
After Barcelona beat Juventus 2–0 in Turin on October 28, 2020, Barça’s official account posted a picture of Messi with the message basically saying: “Glad you got to see the GOAT on your pitch.”
Juventus replied with a warning: wrong dictionary we’ll bring you the right one to Camp Nou.
Then December 8 came.
Camp Nou.
Ronaldo was back.
Juventus won 3–0.
Ronaldo scored twice.
And after the final whistle, Juventus went back to that old exchange and delivered the line:
“We kept our word: we brought it.”
That is what makes the story crazy. 😂
Barça started the conversation with a GOAT tweet.
Juve answered with a promise.
Ronaldo showed up at Camp Nou and put two goals behind the conversation.
Then Juventus came back to the SAME tweet and closed the chapter.
That wasn’t just banter anymore.
The tweet had become a receipt.
And the funniest part?
The original Barcelona tweet was supposed to celebrate Messi.
Months later, people were talking about it because Ronaldo had just walked into Camp Nou, scored twice and helped Juventus win 3–0.
Sometimes football doesn’t need a long argument.
Sometimes the reply is 90 minutes long. 🐐😂
Siiuuu❤️💯
🚨🗣️ Rasmus Hojlund on why he hit the SIU Celebration:
“I just wanted to send a strong message to the Portugal team that if they don’t value Cristiano, there’s a whole lot in the world he has inspired and still looks up to him.” 🇩🇰❤️
Após a conferência de imprensa do Selecionador Nacional, e no seguimento de uma conversa com o Presidente da Federação Portuguesa de Futebol, tomei a decisão de deixar o estágio da Seleção Nacional.
A seu tempo, direi a verdade a todos os Portugueses sobre as razões que motivaram a minha saída da equipa nacional, à qual sempre me dediquei.
Agora é tempo de desejar boa sorte a Portugal e a todos os meus companheiros de equipa, sem exceção.
La sonrisa de Cristiano Ronaldo, entre aplausos, tras el gol de Gonçalo Ramos que le daba la victoria a Portugal.
Esto no va a salir en la prensa, solo van a salir noticias falsas y malintencionadas para hacerle quedar mal.
Esto es un CAPITÁN.

🚨 Cristiano Ronaldo on his conversation with Bruno Fernandes when he was taken off against Wales:
🗣️ Cristiano Ronaldo: “When the fourth official put the board up and I saw my number, I knew my night was finished.
“I walked towards the touchline and Bruno was there. I took off the captain’s armband and went to hand it to him.
“The first thing he said was, ‘I know you deserve the goal. Maybe number 980 comes in the next match, but we can’t stop now.’
“I smiled at him and said, ‘Maybe.’
“And then I walked off.
“But that little moment meant something to me.
“Because Bruno understands what this shirt means to me. He knows I want to score every time I play for Portugal. He knows I don’t like leaving the pitch without scoring.
“But he also reminded me of something more important.
“Portugal cannot depend on one player.
“Not even me.
“When you are winning, you enjoy it together. When you are chasing a goal, you chase it together. And when Cristiano comes off, Bruno has to take the armband and continue the fight.
“I looked back at the pitch as I was walking to the bench and saw him organising the players.
“And I thought, ‘Good. Now it is your responsibility.’
“I have played with Bruno for many years now, and I know how much he cares about Portugal.
“He wants to win as badly as I do.
“So yes, I wanted number 980.
“I still want it.
“But maybe Bruno was right.
“Maybe the next one comes in the next match.
For tonight, the captain’s armband was going to him. The responsibility was going to him. And the fight was going to continue without me.”
🚨 DO YOU KNOW: Cristiano Ronaldo is the only footballer in history to win the domestic Golden Boot in 5 DIFFERENT LEAGUES. 🐐
Never settled in his comfort zone. 👑🔥
