This version of Messi at the World Cup reminds me of 2018 Messi, where he shot and scores every opportunity! But what’s even more amazing is he now has a better teammate!

@SnehQueenBee Hopefully the bench Bruno and co, so Ronaldo can do it all by himself as always 😂

I love how the fans didn't allow the propaganda against Ronaldo to work this time like they did during the 2022 World Cup. Bruno and co. will be feeling the heat from now on if they don't start stepping up.

So far in the 2026 FIFA World Cup:

Let me do a little football argument today, Mr Bayo: You are free to love Ronaldo, but you cannot make an argument that he is greater than Messi. What metrics do you want to measure with? Messi beats Ronaldo across the board. But let’s flip their records. Would Messi still be greater than Cristiano Ronaldo if: Messi had 35 trophies, while Ronaldo had 46, the highest in the world? Messi had five Ballon d’Ors, while Ronaldo had eight? Messi had 8 domestic titles, while Ronaldo had 13+? Messi had just the Euros and two Nations Leagues, while Ronaldo had a World Cup, two Copas, one Olympic medal, and one Finalissima? Messi had 2 FIFA The Best awards, while Ronaldo had 3? Messi had 4 Golden Shoes, while Ronaldo had 6? Messi had 0 World Cup Golden Balls, while Ronaldo had 2? Messi had 0 World Cup Golden Boots, while Ronaldo had 1? Messi had 960+ goals, while Ronaldo had 900+, but also the most assists, dribbles, and chances created, while playing two fewer years than him? Messi had 5 Champions League titles, while Ronaldo had 4? Messi had 0 Laureus Sports Awards, while Ronaldo had 1, the only footballer to win it? I could go on and on. But even in that scenario, Ronaldo fans would still not concede that Messi is better. But that is the reality we have here. The whole of football knows Messi is both better and greater. Ronaldo’s teammates attest to this. Messi’s teammates attest to this. Top coaches in the world attest to it: Pep Guardiola Jürgen Klopp Arsène Wenger José Mourinho Etc. Legends of football attest to it, and their careers attest to it. Messi is 39, and he is still playing with the highest creative and playmaking responsibility on the pitch. Ronaldo shifted from the wings to the box as early as 2015–2018. Now they are both at the twilight of their careers, and we see one still actively dictating play, while the other has become a shadow of his former self. Messi is better and greater than Ronaldo in all regards.

@Ife4loove @PenTitan No they would tell us his 40, then when they eventually leaves the tournament they would say FIFA hate him and the World Cup isn’t an important tournament

@PenTitan Na their first line of defence bro Dem go first blame other players If dem feed am for next game and he miss kick or sky the ball to space, dem go blame the stadium grass

*Argentina loses to Saudi Arabia on the first game of the 2022 WC The whole world: "Where's Messi? Where's Messi? Where's Messi?" *Portugal draws to DR Congo on the first game of the 2026 WF Idiots: "We should blame the midfield. They didn't pass to Ronaldo🤡" Turn by turn

@Hakeem_Onitolo How about the god does god like things and either bring out the best in his team or do it himself ?

Playing alongside a god of the game and not being willing to put it all on the line for him, whether he is on the pitch or not, is a poor use of initiative.

@Pharaohnee1 @BigDave1747 @heismric Ronaldo started playing 2006, he didn’t win nothing till 2016, that’s 10years and he wasn’t even the best player in the tournament he won, didn’t play the final and yet the team still won it, hasn’t done nothing in a World Cup tournament

@phillyflytoni @BigDave1747 @heismric No same set of team plays for 82 years. The question should be, why couldn't any of the set of teams win a single trophy for 82 years, until he started playing? And why was Ronaldo who supposedly is the problem not a problem during this time of success?

Watched the England World Cup match last night and my anger for Bruno Fernandez and the entire Portugal play just reignited. Look at the many chances and beautiful attacking play from the England team, beautiful football! unlike Portugal who focused on more possession than goals!

@Pharaohnee1 @BigDave1747 @heismric Did this same players play in Portugal for 82 years? Why can’t brazil use their World Cup history to win Morocco?

@BigDave1747 @heismric Yea. As "fluid" as they were by winning 0 trophy in 82 years until Ronaldo debuted. We will see how "fluid" they will be when he retires, you hateful morons.

@mrbayoa1 I know you just a biased liar!

Messi is a great player but never greater than Ronaldo in any world. The only problem with Ronaldo is that he’s the best and never hides his feelings, value himself as a superstar that he is and doesn’t form those humble gimmicks. His superstar Aura annoy his enemy even more.

@CEezy_FK @ESPNUK What season did Messi not score a goal for inter Miami or Argentina? What season didn’t he create chances too

@ESPNUK The day he retires will be the end of some football presenters… Season when Messi didn’t score goals for Argentina or inter Miami you so called presenters keep the quite cause you don’t love watching him score…

"Right now he is not useful!" Should Cristiano Ronaldo be benched in Portugal's next game? 🇵🇹

@ManUtd Milk Messi lmao finished club 😂

🫂🇦🇷

@delefresh2 @Chase_The_Juice @tekkersfoot Lmao he can literally score 5 against them😂😂😂

@Chase_The_Juice @tekkersfoot They should not allow Messi to play against Jordan. It's unfair oooo.

Lionel Scaloni was in tears after Lionel Messi's hat-trick... 🥹🇦🇷

Football heritage.

@LFC @qoodjoe Everyone post Messi 😂

The Reds in their first round of World Cup fixtures 🌍🏆📸

@TheOGPurist_ @NasheCeezet_zw So this is the performance from the suppose greatest player of all time 😂😂

@NasheCeezet_zw Wheather we explain or not Cristiano Ronaldo is still the greatest footballer of all time

He is still the GOAT, one bad game doesn’t define him as a player

@General_D__ @think_marvelous Una go come up with another excuse again 😂😂😂😂

@think_marvelous we the real ronaldo fans know

Funny thing is Ronaldo no too put body for this match😂😂😂 he no carry am for head We Ronaldo fans know this

25 touches 3 shots (0 on target) 1 duel won That is the 2nd least amount of touches Ronaldo has ever had in a World Cup start 😮

@Omhogbai @Waspapping_ Do you have a buffalo brain?? Someone scored a hat trick and you asking for special moments?

@Waspapping_ Show me one special moment Messi had yesterday against Algeria. All he did was show up and score and that was it.

I’m not even a Cristiano Ronaldo fan, but I’m genuinely embarrassed for his fans every time I sit through the torture of watching him try to kick a ball for 90 minutes. What is he actually good at these days? At least with Lionel Messi, even when he doesn’t score, he’s still a joy to watch. He can create chances, dictate play, and produce magic. What’s Cristiano Ronaldo good at??
