Following his two-goal performance in Portugal's dominant 5-0 victory over Uzbekistan, superstar Cristiano Ronaldo appeared visibly annoyed when questioned about the World Cup 2026 performance of his great rival, Lionel Messi.
Several videos circulated on social media from two separate post-match incidents last night, showing journalists asking Ronaldo about the goals scored by Messi and Kylian Mbappé, who now have five and four goals in the tournament, respectively. In the first instance, Ronaldo completely ignored the question, immediately turning to another journalist.
In the second scenario, when Cristiano was again pressed about the Argentine, he retorted, “I don't care about the others at all; Mbappé also scored,” before promptly exiting the stadium's mixed zone.
