Cristiano Ronaldo has enjoyed a stellar career in soccer. Currently playing for the Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr, the Portuguese striker continues to break records, as he made another one for his international side.

The striker joined the international camp for the 2024 Euro qualifiers as they faced Liechtenstein. A Seleção rallied for a 4-0 victory against the away side as Roberto Martinez won his first match with his group.

As Ronaldo scored an emphatic brace against the rivals, Joao Cancelo and his former Manchester City teammate, Bernardo Silva, got their names on the scoresheet. It wasn’t an ordinary brace, as the 38-year-old scored a thunderous free kick.

Cristiano Ronaldo holds no grudges against his teammate

It was indeed a brilliant night for both Portugal and Ronaldo, as they endured a terrific win. Moreover, it was a jaw-dropping free kick from the legendary player, and the goal backfired on his teammate’s comments.

Joao Felix, Ronaldo’s striking partner, was recently asked who is the best free-kick taker in soccer. To that, the former Atletico Madrid man replied by saying Lionel Messi’s name.

But it seemed Ronaldo wasn’t upset at all, as just before the emphatic win, the player was found training normally alongside the Chelsea man. The latter even posted a picture of him training with Felix, as everything seemed normal.

Ronaldo didn’t need to prove himself after all, but he actually scored a brilliant free kick. This shows that the striker speaks with actions rather than words. Nevertheless, Felix might be second-guessing the answer he gave.

Top-notch performance from both GOATs

Whatever Felix’s answer is, both Messi and Ronaldo are among the greatest of all time. Moreover, both displayed a class performance as it was a treat for soccer fans. In fact, La Pulga also got himself a free-kick goal against Panama, thus securing a decent win for his side.

Moreover, the goal was a historic one, as it marked Messi’s 800th career goal. Ronaldo also set a record for most international appearances after getting his 197th cap. It is truly a coincidence that fans once again got to witness yet another masterclass from their rivalry.

Ronaldo and co will now face Luxembourg and look for a decent win. On the other hand, Messi and co. will face Curacao for their next friendly fixture. Let’s see if we get to witness another brilliance from either of them.
