Rodri Responds to Ronaldo’s Comments About His 2024 Ballon d’Or Victory
Rodri, the talented Manchester City and Spain midfielder, has responded to Cristiano Ronaldo’s recent comments about his 2024 Ballon d’Or win.
Ronaldo, who has claimed the prestigious award five times, expressed his belief that Real Madrid’s Vinicius Junior was unfairly denied the title, stating, “Vinicius Jr should have won the Ballon d’Or, in my opinion it was clear.
It was unfair. This is why I love the Globe Soccer Awards, they are honest.”
Rodri, in an interview with AS, reacted to Ronaldo’s remarks, calling them surprising.
He said, “He knows better than anyone how the award works and, most importantly, how the winner is chosen.
This year, the journalists who voted decided that I should win it.”
The 28-year-old midfielder pointed out the irony in Ronaldo’s statement, adding, “These same journalists were likely the ones who voted for him to win the award in the past, and I imagine that at that time, he agreed with their decision.”
Coventry City manager, Frank Lampard, speaks on team player and states how the player’s stance will help the team get into the Premier League.
The player is revealed to be Onyeka who he spoke about in the recent interview.
“He brings a different quality and probably a different profile to the midfield players we have.
“As I say, the profile is slightly different and I think that helps us in terms of the options and the competition in the middle of the park for us.”
Arsenal coach, Mikel Arteta, after their last match, shares an update on the injured team members after their last match.
He shared an update on Saka and stated that he is doing better after going through a hip injury. “His hip is improving a lot. Hopefully, he’ll be ready soon.”
He added about the other team members: “Martin is getting better and will be back in a few days, and Jurrien is fit for the weekend.”
Super Eagles footballer, Alex Iwobi, speaks on the World Cup and reveals their hope to play in the 2026 World Cup.
He shared that the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) is hopeful about hearing from them after they submitted a petition against the Democratic Republic of Congo.
“I mean we’re still waiting, well hopefully we can go to the World Cup, but I feel it’s a tough one.
“It’s a tough one because winning AFCON is like… It’s a great legacy, it’s a great thing to have in your career, a memorable moment. But then at the same time, because I’ve been to the World Cup already, a lot of the players haven’t been.”
