“The Best Player in the World Is Black and Brazilian” – Ronaldo Celebrates Vinicius
Brazilian football icon, Ronaldo Luís Nazário de Lima, popularly known as Ronaldo, proudly declared that the best player in the world is “Black” after his fellow Brazilian, Vinicius Junior, was named the FIFA Best Men’s Player of the Year for 2024.
Ronaldo took to social media to celebrate Vinicius’ achievement, recognizing the challenges the young star has faced.
“They tried to erase you, my friend, and you danced on them,” he wrote.
“The best player in the world is Black and Brazilian.”
Known for his explosive skill, relentless spirit, and a career that saw him win two FIFA World Cups and three FIFA World Player of the Year awards, Ronaldo’s endorsement carries significant weight.
Vinicius Junior, the 24-year-old Real Madrid forward, has had an extraordinary season, but his path to recognition hasn’t been easy.
Despite his brilliance on the pitch, Vinicius missed out on the prestigious Ballon d’Or in October 2023, where Manchester City midfielder Rodri took the prize.
Ghanaian Referee, Daniel Laryea, who officiated the Nigeria vs Morocco game in AFCON gets interviews and shared his experience.
The referee reveals how it was his first time in a semi final and was kind of nervous. “I’ve been to three AFCON tournaments, but this is the first time I’ve been in a semi-final.”
“So when coaches choose you for that game, they know your skills and what you can do. But of course, you feel a little nervous because of the level of the match.”
Nigerian Footballer, Bright Osayi-Samuel , react to match as Super Eagles lose to Morocco.
The player calls out CAF for their referee appointment. He shares how the Ghanaian Referee was tough on the field and made bad choices.
“One thing I would say is that the referee was really bad. I’m not saying that was the reason we lost. He is making really bad choices and it’s really tough to watch because we have referees like this in big games like today.
He then praises Morocco for a good game “But Morocco did really well.”
Super Eagles Coach, Eric Chelle speaks and shared why Nigeria lost the AFCON match to Morocco.
It can be noted that the match was held on the 14th of January, 2026. Nigeria lost the match with a draft in the penalties, 4-2.
During a recent interview, Chelle shared his observations about the match and shared why they lost.
“From a technical point of view, the Super Eagles weren’t at the same level as we displayed in our other matches.”
“I don’t want to say the reason was fatigue, but the truth is that we lacked movement and power.”
