João Neves has found himself at the centre of a storm involving Cristiano Ronaldo fans… 👀🇵🇹
After Portugal’s match, Neves was asked about Cristiano Ronaldo and gave a measured response:
🗣️ “We know what Cristiano has done for us, for our national team, and for the world of football. He is here to contribute, just like all of us.”
However, fans quickly linked the interview to an older clip with @Mvps where Neves was asked to name the best player in different leagues…
🇸🇦 Best player in Saudi Arabia? João Félix.
🇺🇸 Best player in MLS? Lionel Messi.
🇵🇹 Best player in the Portugal national team? Himself.
Cristiano Ronaldo was not mentioned. 😳
Since then, Ronaldo fans have flooded Neves’ social media with comments and have even begun targeting his girlfriend’s account, leading her to disable her comment section 🚨
According to @polymarket, there is a 64% chance we will see Ronaldo cry @ this summers tournament 😳
