@DeadlineDayLive Love him or hate him Cristiano is one of the greats, one of the most recognisable sports people in the world and has been at the very top for close to 20 years. Who exactly is the other one?

🚨 28-year old Aitana Bonmatí, who is the highest-paid female footballer in the world, earns a salary that is around 260 times lower than Cristiano Ronaldo, who is 41-years old. Just one month of Ronaldo's salary would equal 21 and a half years of Bonmatí's career. What is your thoughts on this? 🤔

@TouchlineX It’s not worth watching till about the quarter finals anyway and even more so now with so many pish teams and it literally being harder to get knocked out than advance from the groups. Well done to all involved 👏

@DeadlineDayLive £47k for kicking a ball around a field a few times a week still excellent and higher than the average UK wage.

🚨 The reality of pay in professional football. 🤯 The average annual salary for a female professional footballer worldwide is around £8,400. In England’s WSL, that figure rises to £47,000 — still a long way off the £3M average salary in the Premier League. The gap underlines the continued disparity in investment, sponsorship and media coverage between the men’s and women’s games. While women’s football is growing fast, financial equality remains a long way off. Do you think there will ever be parity between men's and women's football? 🤔

@theMadridZone Think he is and will be a great coach/manager myself and should have had more time especially considering he was coaching the pricks that wear that jersey.

🚨BREAKING: What happened at Real Madrid yesterday. At 7:15am, the team landed in Madrid. Everyone went to Valdebebas to pick up their cars and go home. Perez was angry after El Clasico. Real Madrid’s board met and decided to sack Xabi Alonso. At around 4:30pm, a meeting took place with Xabi in his office to inform him that his time as Real Madrid’s coach has come to an end. It lasted 20 minutes. @SQuirante

Will probably get used to it but the aesthetics on TV with the black carpet is awful at The Masters Snooker #TheMasters #bbcsport

@centralNRL It’s absolutely ridiculous that you can just chose your country in RL. Understand you might have parents from different heritages etc but once you wear one shirt that should be it.

Kotoni Staggs says he’ll commit to Australia at next year’s World Cup if Kevin Walters remains Kangaroos coach. Staggs says his relationship with Walters is a major factor in his decision, calling him the coach he’s played some of his best footy under. "If Kev stays in that role, I don't see myself anywhere else. I've got a good relationship with him, I love playing under him and I've played some of my best footy under him as well. "If he's there, I'll be there as well with him, but time will tell." (DT)

@SkySportsRL Thought it wasn’t great myself, little intensity and physicality was lacking. Very lacklustre although obviously Aus were far better. Just watched the Pacific Champs and it was night and day the quality of that one, just miles better.

Australia outclass England in the first Test at Wembley 😳 ⬇️

@ESPNUK Shit that you’re forced to sell obviously but if you have to sell someone, choose better.

⚫⚪ Eddie Howe had no choice but to sell Elliot Anderson, even though he knew it was a mistake: 🗣️ "We knew the minute it was going to happen that we were massively selling him at a big discount. But we weren't in a very strong negotiating position at all. It was that or a points deduction. We had no choice but to make the sale, but it was not one we wanted to do. It didn't sit right with me then, and doesn't sit right with me today"

@FCBarcelona It wasn’t good but why do players insist on fannying about with penalties? Just run up to the ball and hit it into the corner. If you want to dance up to the ball then miss the goal completely you look like a total gimp.

Full-time in Seville.

@BetfairExchange Will there be a market for Trump v Murphy at British Open?

@TouchlineX @DiarioOle Why stop there? Might as well make it 256, the whole earth plus some ringers from outer space.

🚨 𝗝𝗨𝗦𝗧 𝗜𝗡: FIFA are seriously considering making the 2030 World Cup a 64-team tournament. This is to celebrate 100 years since the First World Cup. — @DiarioOle

@FOXNRL Turned the game off as soon as full time blown. Checked back 3 hours later to see the schedule for next week and saw Raiders v Sharks. Legit thought that someone somewhere had fucked up. Checked elsewhere and same story. Turned out I missed all the drama FFS.

GREATEST. FINAL. EVER! 🤯 Ben Hunt hit a 40-metre field goal in the 94th minute for the Broncos to seal the most insane comeback win in finals history in golden point extra time... HOW IT WENT DOWN 👉 bit.ly/4meKSfm

@WeAreTheOverlap Of course he still gave his all after he got booked and knew he couldn’t play the final. It’s his job!! 😂

Ted Beckham has nothing but respect for Roy Keane, especially for that performance against Juventus in 1999! 🤝

@usopen No doubt he’ll win now but Sinner looks off the pace here to me.

Carlos Alcaraz breaks in the first game of the match.

@usopen The words “piss up” and “brewery” come to mind.

As a result of the security measures in place, and to ensure that fans have additional time to get to their seats, we have pushed the start time of today’s match to 2:30 pm ET.

@josemorgado Alcaraz v Djokovic should absolutely be the day match as I’m sure it will draw more interest and people in Europe can now actually watch it.

A bit surprised with Alcaraz vs Djokovic being the first semifinal tomorrow. Sinner vs Auger-Alissime at night

@DisneyPlusUK any chance of 1 commentary team instead of 2 being heard on the Barcelona game please?

@tntsports Ronnie O’Sullivan that was obscene!

THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME 🐐 Ronnie O'Sullivan hits his SECOND 147 of the match! 🚀

@SkySports As a subscriber who likes a variety of sports I’d prefer SkySports PL to be a separate subscription and then I can pay less for other sports and not have to pay for this. Or maybe get back La Liga and UCL as opposed to boasting about showing Wolves v Burnley or other such dross.

And finally, Sky Sports will be bringing you 215 Premier League matches this season! ⚽ Get ready for non-stop action! 🍿

Sky Sports will be broadcasting all TEN of the final-day games in the Premier league on Sunday May 24 😱

@Mascott44 @tntsports It’s not great and would be better if they showed other tables on the main channel. No doubt to do with rights! TV table has been totally uncompetitive last 2 sessions. Probably chosen RO’S tonight for the TV table aswell which looks the least competitive of the 4 to me.

Anyone else frustrated at the snooker coverage on @tntsports ? There are some cracking matches on at the #saudiarabiasnookermasters but they only show the ‘Telly Table’. I assume to do with Discovery+ having some hold over the deal. It’s hardly putting viewers first. #snooker
