Cristiano Ronaldo commented with tears of laughter, in a video by Diario AS on Instagram, about Lionel Messi not deserving to win the eighth Ballon d'Or.
Today, October 31, AS posted a video on Instagram , in which Editor-in-Chief Tomas Roncero commented on Messi receiving the 2023 Golden Ball from France Football magazine. In this video, Roncero said in Spanish that Messi went to Inter Miami to retire, but he played as if he had retired since he was at PSG.
"It's true that Messi won the World Cup, but with six penalties," said Roncero. "The World Cup was also 10 months ago. Messi has won eight Ballons d'Or, but he should have won only five. He holds the Ballon d'Or from Andres Iniesta or Xavi, the player who won six in one season Robert Lewandowski and now the top scorer in all competitions Erling Haaland."

AS 's video was liked by Ronaldo, who commented with four "laughing tears" emojis. Ronaldo's comment received more than 16,000 likes and more than 4,000 reactions in just six hours, while AS 's video only had 13,000 likes.
This is not the first time Ronaldo has supported posts criticizing Messi on social media. After the Argentine superstar won the 2021 Ballon d'Or, Ronaldo also liked a post criticizing Messi on Instagram , then commented: "Factos", which means "truth" in Portuguese.
Ronaldo is the most followed person on Instagram , with 609 million followers. Messi is second with 490 million followers. The two superstars also own eight of the 10 most liked posts on the social network.
Messi took five penalties at the 2022 World Cup, scoring four. He also scored three more, helping Argentina win the title after beating France on penalties. In the previous four World Cups, Messi had only taken one penalty, but did not score.
After scoring in every round of the 2022 World Cup, and winning the Best Player award, Messi was awarded his eighth Ballon d'Or by France Football magazine on the evening of October 30 in Paris. He surpassed the Silver Ball Erling Haaland, even though the Norwegian striker won three titles with Man City, broke the record for goals scored in a Premier League season and won the Champions League Golden Boot.
Ronaldo has won five Ballons d'Or, the most recent coming six years ago, when he tied Messi at 5-5. Since then, Messi has won three more Ballons d'Or in odd-numbered years, taking the lead to 8-5. The French magazine calls Messi "infinity", with a horizontal number 8.
Ronaldo was not nominated for the 2023 Ballon d'Or, after a forgettable World Cup with only one goal. He also moved to Al Nassr in Saudi Arabia from January 2023, reducing his chances of winning another Ballon d'Or. The 38-year-old striker still has a desire to play and wants to play at Euro 2024, and even the 2026 World Cup.
