📸 Like father, like son: CR7 shows off his muscles with his lad
📸 Like father, like son: CR7 shows off his muscles with his lad Cristiano Ronaldo is known to proudly show off his physical form even at 40 years old. What many don't know: He allegedly has a twin now. Okay, his son Cristiano Júnior – who will turn 15 tomorrow – may not quite match his father's muscles yet. And yet, he's looking more and more like his dad physically. Or as CR7 himself wrote in a post on 'X': "Like father, like son.' Advertisement By the way: Just a few weeks ago, the junior made his debut for Portugal's U15 team. Will we maybe even get to admire two Ronaldos on the field together in a few years?

Celebrations, banter, golazos: the buzzworthy images from the international break are here! Roland-Garros 1 - Nations League 0 🎾 Sunday afternoon, Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner faced off in the Roland-Garros final, in a legendary match, that the players of La Roja did not miss! The Spaniards were spotted, warming up before their Nations League final against Portugal, following their compatriot's final. However, they failed to emulate him by losing their final. Cherki's banger 💥 Before being transferred to Manchester City on Tuesday, Rayan Cherki made his first appearance with the French team, and dazzled in the defeat against Spain (5-4), in the Nations League semi-final, with his talent. Among other things, a high-class golazo, voted the best goal of the Final Four. The joy of Uzbekistan 🎉 The team of former Lens player Khusanov, now at Manchester City, managed to qualify for the first World Cup in its history, in a year, after a draw against the United Arab Emirates. An achievement that has shaken the country, as evidenced by the immediate reaction of journalists. The emotions! CR7's tears 🥹 Against Spain, Sunday night, Cristiano Ronaldo won the Nations League with Portugal, by defeating La Roja in penalty kicks. A great emotion for the Portuguese legend. Ribéry well bantered 🤣 This is the story of the biter bit. Usual banterer, known for his humor, Franck Ribéry got caught in his own game. After a jab at CR7, referring to the 2013 Ballon d'Or result, Ribéry was heckled by Portuguese fans when their idol scored against Spain, in the Nations League final. The backlash. Senegal makes history 🦁 Tuesday night in the match, Senegal became the first African nation to beat England (3-1), thanks to well-known names from Ligue 1: Ismaïla Sarra, Habib Diarra and Cheick Sabaly. Depay and the Netherlands in war machine mode 💣 For the World Cup qualifiers, the Netherlands gave a thrashing to Malta (8-0). An opportunity for Depay to become the top scorer in the history of the selection (50 goals, like Van Persie). Pedri sets a date 👀 Defeated by Portugal in the Nations League final, Barça and Spain's midfielder, Pedri, showed that he had quickly turned the page, with a cryptic but well-received message for the next World Cup! The huge troll in Kings League 🤡 It wasn't Lamine Yamal's week. Despite the victory against the Blues, the Barcelona prodigy lost the final against Portugal, and his team was eliminated from the Kings World Cup by F2R, the French team of AmineMaTue. So the tricolors didn't hesitate to banter! The crazy request of a fan 😭 The CR7 mania will never stop. Well, not anytime soon. During the Nations League final against Spain, a fan didn't miss the chance to send him some love and write a rather special request!

Portugal v Spain: Nations League final
Update: Date: 2025-06-08T17:53:49.000Z Title: Preamble Content: The buildup to this game has concentrated less on the actual trophy at stake, and more on the clash between the GOATs of the past and (likely) future. It's Cristiano Ronaldo versus Lamine Yamal! CR7 v Lamine The Dream! Oh, is that a piece of international silverware I see in the corner of my eye as well? I guess that'd be nice to win. 'I would like to take pressure off him and leave him alone,' said Ronaldo of Spain's teenage sensation this week. Yamal, who somehow is still only 17, dubbed his opponent 'a football legend'. It's been an understandable love-in, fuelled by the fact there is so little else to talk about in the world of football right now. A rare lull such as this was always going to be filled with predictable GOAT chat. Anyway, the action gets under way at 8pm (BST) in Munich this evening, with Spain looking to claim Nations League glory for a second successive time after their 2023 win. In fact, there's never been a Nations League final in which one of Spain or Portugal haven't competed. Portugal beat the Netherlands in the inaugural 2019 competition, while France edged past Spain in 2021. Let's see who can become the tournament's first two-time winners tonight.
