Cristiano Ronaldo did this to mock Lionel Messi’s Ballon d’Or win
On Monday evening, Lionel Messi was named the winner of the Ballon d’Or 2023, winning his eighth – and went ahead of his rival Cristiano Ronaldo.
Cristiano Ronaldo appeared to mock Lionel Messi’s unprecedented eighth Ballon d’Or win on social media.
The Argentine icon added to his growing Ballon d’Or collection at a glamorous ceremony in Paris after leading his country to World Cup glory in Qatar. At the beginning of the past Monday Monday, Mensi applied to Argentina and face cup of World when it marks seven times.
The titles found Inutter Striker stores the final reasons to write three things in Manchester City won three – in Kylian matchse. The France striker’s World Cup hat-trick was not enough to beat Messi in Argentina.
Messi received the award from Inter Miami owner David Beckham, the 36-year-old celebrated the historic moment with his wife Antonela and their three children. However, while much of the footballing world is rejoicing, his arch-rival Ronaldo seems to be irking the Argentinian.
In an Instagram post from the Spanish newspaper “As”, journalist Tomas Roncero criticized Messi in a strong way, suggesting that it was “unfair” for him to win while praising him for the victory a. He said: “Hello friends, what everyone knows has happened. They gave Messi another Ballon d’Or… Congratulations Leo, congratulations champion.
Ronaldo – the most followed on social media – is quick to act, talking with funny emojis. The former Real Madrid star came close to matching Messi with five Ballon d’Ors, only for his rival to separate himself by winning three more – including the 2023 edition of the award on Monday evening. Perhaps Ronaldo thinks Haaland is a more deserving winner. But the shocking reaction showed that he was upset that Messi had won. After the ceremony, Messi spoke to the press about his new honor. When asked if his rivalry with Ronaldo is now over, Messi replied: “It’s a rivalry in the cave. “In sports, it’s very good and I think we both benefited from each other because we both compete and always want to beat everyone and everything. I think it’s time good for us and football lovers in general. “What we’ve done all this time is very good because as they say, it’s easy to get to the top but it’s hard to stay there. We stayed at the top for 10 or 15 years, I don’t remember how many, and it’s hard. It is very difficult to continue at this level and I think it is a good thing and a beautiful memory for everyone who loves football.

Klopp reacts as he honors teenage talent as Red Devils topple Toulouse.
Jurgen Klopp praised the talents of Liverpool’s academy after their Europa League win over Toulouse.
The Red Devils comfortably won 5-1 at Anfield thanks to 19-year-old defender Luke Chambers making his official debut.
Diogo Jota, Wataru Endo, Darwin Nunez, Ryan Gravenberch and Mohamed Salah were all on the scoresheet on a night when a number of smaller names for the Merseysiders were also introduced from the bench.
Teenage duo Calum Scanlon and James McConnell came on in the second half as Klopp’s side continued their excellent start in Group E.
The German coach said: “We can get the kids in yard.
“We think guys really need that now. I can tell them how much I love them but we have to show it every now and then..
“In good times, You can give the guys a chance.
“They all took it.. We have a lot of good guys and we trust them.
“You saw in the tough times.
“Most of the time we had total control.. We scored good goals, no one was injured, a perfect evening.”
After 67 minutes of play, Chambers said:
“I’ve been dreaming about this moment since I was six years old.
“On top of winning, I’m speechless..
“I just found out yesterday and spent time with my family in the evening.. It has happened.”
The Lancastrian also highlighted the influence of his countryman Trent Alexander-Arnold, saying:
“Trent has done what I aspired to do..
“Watching Trent do this gives us a springboard to recreate him.
“I couldn’t ask for someone better to admire.”
Liverpool will be back in action at Anfield on Sunday, when they host Nottingham Forest in the Premier League.

Man City, Arsenal, Tottenham, Liverpool, Chelsea and Man Utd’s next five Premier League fixtures shows some clubs are likely to go down the EPL table
Manchester City enter the international break after back-to-back losses for the first time since 2018 and will be working hard to turn things around.
The Blues’ 1-0 defeat to Arsenal at the Emirates will be heartbreaking, but the treble winners are still just two points off top spot. Pep Guardiola will be strengthened by Rodri’s return. The team lost all three matches and he was banned after a red card against Nottingham Forest.
City are unlikely to have it easy in their next series of Premier League matches in a period that will once again test the mettle of this season’s squad. The champions will confidently perfect their winning mentality to overcome Arsenal, who also face some tough encounters.
Brighton (H) – Saturday 21 October
Brighton also pose a tough challenge but must travel to the Etihad after four matches without a win, including a 6-1 loss to Aston Villa. However, they regained their composure to get draws against Marseille and Liverpool to restore confidence.
Homeowners must have enough to get the job done but never exclude seagulls from trespassing and stealing goods.
Manchester United (A) – Sunday 29 October
City may be going through difficult times, but their main rivals are living a nightmare. Only a late comeback prevented a defeat to Brentford that would have seen United lose three games in a row.
The champions will be eager for revenge after United’s controversial 2-1 win at Old Trafford in January. A heavy blow can send their opponents back to their pre-break form.
AFC Bournemouth (H) – Saturday 4 November
Bournemouth is one of two clubs that have not won a match in the Premier League this season. There seems to be a disconnect between Andoni Iraola, his players and the Cherries fans, and City will certainly try to exploit that. This will be the match where Erling Haaland sees the opportunity to score 8 goals this season. City have won 17 of 19 meetings with Bournemouth and have not lost a single match.
Chelsea (A) – Sunday November 12
Chelsea is no longer the same team as before but still needs to be respected. They are starting to show signs of a team that is perhaps starting to click after posting three straight wins.
They certainly won’t be challenging for top honors this season, but a number of Chelsea players have something to prove. City should have won all three points but will face a difficult journey.
Liverpool (H) – Saturday 25 November
In recent seasons before last season, this was one of two clashes that decided the championship and Man City had the upper hand. It is still too early to make a similarly contextual assessment of this encounter, but Liverpool have largely impressed so far.
Playing at home could see the hosts take all three points, while City have historically struggled at Anfield. This match, perhaps, will be more about seeing whether Liverpool will challenge them for the crown this time or whether Man City will have too much again.

Arsenal will look to continue their unbeaten run in the Premier League this weekend when they travel to the south coast to face Andoni Iraola’s Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium. The Gunners suffered a slight defeat after a 2-2 draw with arch-rivals Tottenham, leaving them four points behind leaders Manchester City.

Sheffield United (H) – Saturday 28 October

Paul Heckingbottom’s side have been competitive in many top-flight competitions but suffered a rude awakening when they lost 8-0 to Newcastle at the weekend.

Newcastle United (A) – Saturday 4 November
Eddie Howe’s side got off to a strong start against Aston Villa but then went on to lose their next three in a row. Now off the back of wins against Brentford, Manchester City and the 8-0 thrashing of Sheffield United, Newcastle will be well up for this one. Mikel Arteta will no doubt be wary of the danger both Callum Wilson and Alexander Isak can cause while also keeping an eye on their defenders who have popped up recently with goal involvements.
