Why Ronaldo’s Confidence Rubs Many the Wrong Way After His Brace
Cristiano Ronaldo scored twice as Portugal thrashed Uzbekistan 5-0. At 41, he became the first man to net in six different World Cups. Yet social media is split between celebrating fans and harsh critics. Supporters hail his durability and clutch performances. They argue that doubters always come back when Ronaldo responds. Critics, however, downplay goals against a World Cup debutant and question his lack of knockout-stage strikes. Personally, I don’t see the problem with celebrating. Messi has done it without complaint, but Ronaldo’s “I’m back” gesture attracts more heat. His self-belief seems to be the real trigger for many. With Bruno Fernandes calling him Portugal’s “go-to player in attack,” the debate intensifies. Should Ronaldo start every knockout match or be used as a super-sub? Share your view.
