I keep watching Ronaldo’s goal over and over I’m still speechless.... you will not see much better than this
this goal will be talked about for decades and decades.. https://t.co/c20dhcu50K
🚨 Cristiano Ronaldo: “I will not be ‘more Cristiano’ if we win the World Cup, or ‘less Cristiano’ if we don’t win it”. 🏆🇵🇹
“I’m grateful to life. I’m enjoying every single day, I’ve been lucky. I learned to enjoy day by day”.
🚨⚠️ Belgium coach Rudi Garcia: “I didn’t know that at the World Cup as at FIFA the 5th of July is actually the first of April. It’s April Fools”.
“We’re not defending the national team or federation, we are defending football and integrity”.
⚠️🇲🇽 Javier Hernández on the difference between Leo Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo:
🗣️ “MESSI IS SUPERMAN AND CRISTIANO RONALDO IS BATMAN. Superman was born with powers, Batman wasn't. Batman had to build himself with discipline, courage, and bravery until he became extraordinary.
My mother-in-law asked me: Who's better, Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo? And I replied: ‘What do you admire most?’
Messi is the representation of pure talent. Watching him play feels natural, as if the laws of physics don't apply to him. He makes the impossible look simple. Clubs build systems around him, and that makes sense because he's a talent that never existed in history. Messi represents the dream of being born with an extraordinary gift.
But Cristiano Ronaldo represents another story: the story of the one who built himself, who turned discipline into his greatest talent, who changed countries, leagues, languages, playing systems, and still remained elite. While Messi seems to improvise, Cristiano seems to have trained every move thousands of times. While one conveys calm, the other conveys hunger. While one lets the game come to him, the other goes out to conquer it from the first minute.
And that's why millions of us identify with Cristiano Ronaldo, because many of us weren't born being the best. We had to work twice as hard to achieve our dreams. Cristiano Ronaldo represents the one who swims against the current, the one who receives criticism, the one whose achievements are normalized and minimized, and yet keeps going.
And I think that's the real discussion: not who's better, but which story inspires you more. Both are admirable, and both inspire a lot: the one who was born with a gift or the one who proved that with discipline you can change your destiny.
Because in the end, we admire Messi for what he is, a being from another planet, but many admire Cristiano Ronaldo because he's a monster of willpower that forces us to look in the mirror and feel capable of breaking through.”

Some players win trophies. Some players win hearts. Luka Modrić did both. Football will never forget the Maestro." 🤍✨
🚨 Cristiano Ronaldo: “I played many years with Modrić, it’s great to see him still playing at top level”.
“I told him: congrats Luka, good luck for the future of your career”. 🇵🇹🇭🇷
🚨 Chicharito: “The first game, there was a lot of criticism towards Ronaldo.
The 2nd game, they created chances for him and he scored as he usually does.
41 years old with 976 goals in his bag, still runs back, 19 mph. He shut everyone up again today. Example for EVERYONE.”
Legendary QB Tom Brady, says “There’s no greater passer of the football than #Packers Aaron Rodgers. You see everyone do it, and then you see one person, throw the ball that much better, Aaron Rodgers was incredible.”
