Honestly it’s crazy how Ronaldo is still this good at 38, he found joy again after that toxic united spell and now united fans realize he wasn’t the problem but the guy was really going through it all the way until the end of the World Cup and the entire world turned on him. Then Messi won the World Cup after Argentina were gifted unlimited penalty kicks and then this subreddit just went bat shit insane acting as if Ronaldo was always shit. Then anytime Messi flicks a ball this subreddit loses its mind and says “it was never in contention Messi the goat!” The bias here is so insane

People who have a short memory the euro 2016 that we won under santos was so insanely lucky:

*Under Santos, Portugal would win the rest of their games in the qualifiers, all by a single goal, and top their group.

During the final tournament Portugal were drawn in Group F with Iceland, Austria and Hungary. Three draws, including a thrilling 3–3 match with Hungary in the last group game, gave Portugal a third-place finish in their group*

This is a dumb take, this team is unbelievably stacked if they win it’s not because of Ronaldo Ronaldo is just icing on an already insanely delicious cake. Literally every single position has an unbelievably good player there.
