@SirJarus Just curious, how far did you think Argentina will go?
English
What will I say that I have not said for the past two weeks?
It became glaring from first game that they stood no chance of winning the World Cup.
And meeting Spain at this stage, Spain were the favourites.
These are obvious facts.
I don't tweet for tweeting sake or because everyone is tweeting on a subject. If I don't have any fresh angle, I don't participate much on a topic.
The exit was a fait accompli.

A popular voice is missing in this Rinaldo's conversation, which is uncommon — @SirJarus I hope all is well?

Belgium manager Rudi Garcia subbed off Doku and De Bruyne vs. Senegal when they were down 0-2 in the RO32 and came back to win 3-2.
Garcia doubled downed in the RO16 and started with Doku and De Bruyne on the bench vs. the USMNT and won 4-1, playing the best football we’ve seen from Belgium in some time.
What a bold decision that paid off 👏

@kingberrykarter @survivor790 Just Dey play ooo. If World determines GOAT then Mbappe should be rated ahead of Messi any day and time.

Lewa e.t.c did not play in this world cup actually.
But to answer your question with another question: the real question isn't whether other strikers outshine him in training.
The question you and others, including those like Martinez who think they like Ronaldo or believe benching Ronaldo would be disrespectful should ask is:
What role gives a 41-year-old the best chance to compete against younger defenders? And ultimately, would that role make him more impactful for the team?
English
@AutoPharmNG @RayToluAyo Dzeko, Lewa etc all played this world cup... They also all started. Super sub una. He wants to start like every other player. The coach decides based on tactics and what he sees in training. Do you think the other Portuguese strikers outshine Ronaldo in training?
English
Cristiano Ronaldo is old, he doesn't have the legs to run again like the ferocious and monsterous winger that we once knew
Since he wasn't ready to retire yet, he had to evolve his game to another style entirely which was what he did in 2021 when he moved to back to Manchester United from Juventus
While he didn't lose his goal scoring ability, he lost his pace, his strength, burst and power
The service he had rendered strikers and forwards during his prime, it was his time to also get served as well as a striker
He has done what he could
There is an end to everything

But it’s sad seeing Ronaldo’s game evolve to just waiting in the box.

@real_fakeGOAT @ESPNFC I actually think he should start on the bench, especially since the tournament will be hosted in Portugal. A 7th World Cup for No. 7 would be a fitting way to bow out.
A 2mins cameo, or even a player/assistant coach role, wouldn't hurt his legacy.

@AutoPharmNG @GunnerCOYG1 @valkyrafe @ESPNFC UEFA Nations League wey be glorified friendly cup
Go and check the reason why it was created 😂
English
@Kemisanwo @ESPNFC All the best to them if they can't comprehend.
English
@GunnerCOYG1 @valkyrafe @ESPNFC I see
That's truly elite historical achievement to coach two golden generations.
At least he also won the prestigious UEFA Nations League.
English
@AutoPharmNG @valkyrafe @ESPNFC So who won the national league championship?? Because you people will just write anything to make your engagements
English
@LouieDi13 Trump actually equate am to Messi, Ronaldo and Kane
English
Autopharmng me-retweet
@ESPNFC This was the coach Portugal needed.
A man with the balls to do what's best for the team, not just using who's popular.
English
@valkyrafe @ESPNFC You can only wonder what pedigree Roberto Martínez uses to keep selling himself to these national teams.
Has he won anything of historical importance than that Wigan FA cup?
English
@AutoPharmNG @ESPNFC Ironically that same coach who destroyed Belgium golden's generation is now destroying Portugal golden's generation.
English
@bisquit_john @RayToluAyo Maybe he did.
Assimilation and comprehension are scarce commodities on X.
English
@RayToluAyo @AutoPharmNG You didn't read. Just like you never watch Messi. You'd be admitting it

The gap between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi is not wide
It is the biggest exaggeration in football
It's the same thing when people say Ronaldo is hard work, while Messi is talent - that is the biggest fallacy in football history
Are we talking about just any other player here or you are judging Ronaldo at his old age?
Ronaldo is not Eden Hazard or Theirry Henry or Samuel Eto'o or even Ronaldo Delima
We are talking about Cristiano Ronaldo Dos Santos Aviero
Cristiano Ronaldo from Manchester United till he left Juventus was levels with Lionel Messi
At his old age, anybody can say even anything
CR7 in his prime does everything and anything you can think of in football
There was absolutely nothing he can't and didn't do
Because he is old now, I should erase 18 years of Ronaldo terrorizing the world of football and use his old age to judge him
Ronaldo and Messi are levels
Only the FIFA World Cup put Messi ahead of him
Michael Achimugu@mikeachimugu01
The gap between Messi and Ronaldo is wider than you guys like to acknowledge. The senior world cup is not the only difference. Lionel Messi won the U23 World Cup as player of the tournament, and also won Olympic gold. Ronaldo will never win those two anymore. For those who watch football for sheer entertainment value, Messi is an embodiment of why we enjoy this sport. There is a reason we used to love Carlos Valderama, George Haggi, Roman Riquelme, Fernando Redondo, Jay Jay Okocha, Ronaldinho, Kaka, Obedient Pele, Kalusha Bwalya, etc. Ronaldo is a great player whose achievements can never be downplayed. But comparisons between him and Messi should not be an actual thing at this point, if not that human beings must be subjective in football conversations. We are grateful that these two had a chokehold on the game for twenty years and gave us endless moments tp talk about. But there is only one G.O.A.T and we all know who that is...

You can't compare two completely different situations unless you're trying to push an agenda.
Referees have made decisions based on perception countless times....sometimes fairly, sometimes not. Messi certainly isn't the first player to avoid a red card for a challenge like that.
What is unprecedented is a player having a suspension suspended during the same tournament after already being sent off. The closest & recent comparison is Cristiano Ronaldo's red card being rescinded, but even that happened outside a tournament without any president interference.
Let's stop making everything about Messi or Ronaldo just to sell agenda.
English
If the referee had given Messi that red card, in the first game, it would have been a reference point for FIFA to show Trump that even the best can get a red card and life goes on.
English
@Noblewolf1010 @ESPNFC Portugal should have sacked that Coach, his only play was to keep starting a 41yrs old

@geminithestrika Believe it or not, Ronaldo is. He needs to take the backseat, not because critics are saying it But because once he put his mind to it and embraces the role, he will become the greatest sub ever.
English
@ESPNFC Same thing Portugal Should have done with Ronaldo.
Allow the boys run around. Introduce Ronaldo 70 mins and you see impact
English
Lukaku now has the second-most World Cup goals EVER as a sub (4) 👏
-Egypt: Subs on and immediately forces own goal to equalize
-New Zealand: Subs on and gets a goal and assist
-Senegal: Subs on and scores goal to kickstart Belgium’s comeback in the RO32
-USMNT: Subs on and scores goal to seal RO16 win
English
AFCON final was decided months after we had a winner on the pitch.
World Cup red card has been overturned. We hear Trump made a call.
French Football Federation has asked FIFA to cancel the yellow card shown to Michael Olise during France’s World Cup round-of-16 win over Paraguay. Will Emmanuel Macron make that call?
Football has left our pitches and has become shamelessly politicized (it’s been for a long time). It’s just more blatant now.
