Is there any record of which Cristiano Ronaldo (37) will not crash in his career? There is no longer any need to list what he has done in his career, maybe one day someone will write a book about it.
The Portuguese’s World Cup in Qatar is the fifth in his career, and he became the only footballer in history to score at five World Cups. In Portugal’s celebration against Ghana (3-2), he scored from the penalty spot for 1-0 and made history. Which he has been writing for years.
But many were intrigued by something else. During the match, Cristiano reached into his shorts, took out something and ate it. It is not known what it is about. Vitamins, energy tablets, chewing gum, many speculate. But certainly a scene that we don’t see often. Or rather, never. It didn’t take long for social media to explode.
– He did Jogi Löw – wrote one of the users, alluding to the former German coach whose favorite thing was to stick his hand in his pants and smell them.
Whatever Ronaldo ate helped him. His first goal in the first half was disallowed due to a foul, but later on he won a penalty and converted it himself. The WC in Qatar is his last chance to get the ‘golden goddess’, and interestingly, he is the only player at the championship without a club.
He was sacked by Manchester United after an interview in which he spat at the club, his teammates and the coach. He is free to negotiate with the new club. Some speculate that it will be Saudi Arabia, Sporting is calling him to return home. It would be a wonderful end to a magnificent career.
