Cristiano Ronaldo Had ‘Cold’ Response to Germany Fans Chanting ‘Messi’ At Him

Cristiano Ronaldo had the perfect response to Germany fans chanting Lionel Messi’s name at the Allianz Arena on Wednesday night. Despite both halves of football’s greatest duopoly now playing outside Europe – and effectively out of the Ballon d’Or conversation – the rivalry still follows them wherever they go.

Fans continue to hold on to the golden era of El Clasico, where Ronaldo and Messi featured for Real Madrid and Barcelona. Since moving to Al-Nassr in the Saudi Pro League, Ronaldo has often found Messi’s name echoing around stadiums, but he didn’t seem fazed this time. Instead, he let his football do the talking as Portugal came from behind to seal a 2-1 win over Julian Nagelsmann’s Germany and book their place in the Nations League final.

The final will be held at the same venue on June 8, with Ronaldo now just one step away from lifting the trophy for a second time, having already won the inaugural edition in 2019. He’ll face either Spain or France, who meet in the second semi-final on Thursday.
