Cristiano Ronaldo Likes Post Claiming FIFA Favored Argentina in World Cup

Cristiano Ronaldo FIFA Argentina World Cup controversy

Portugal forward Cristiano Ronaldo sparked a social‑media controversy after his verified Instagram account liked a video posted by the Spanish program Espejo Público. The video featured journalists accusing FIFA of corruption and alleging that the governing body helped Argentina reach the final of the 2026 FIFA World Cup to benefit Lionel Messi.

Ronaldo’s like was quickly captured and shared online, prompting debate over whether the star endorsed the accusations. Argentina ultimately lost the final 1‑0 to Spain, while Portugal were eliminated in the round of 16 by the same Spanish team. Ronaldo later said the tournament was his last World Cup appearance.

The incident drew reactions from other football figures, including Sergio Aguero, who defended Ronaldo against criticism, and sparked broader discussion about refereeing decisions involving Argentina throughout the competition.
