Coach Scaloni congratulates Ronaldo on winning the Nations League. |
Scaloni lavished praise on Ronaldo and Portugal after their thrilling Nations League final victory in Munich, Germany. The 40-year-old scored to help his team draw 2-2, taking the match into extra time and a penalty shootout. Ruben Neves took the decisive free kick to give Portugal the win.
Messi and Ronaldo have long been rivals in their careers, although neither has enjoyed success at international level. Ronaldo won Euro 2016 and two Nations League titles, while Messi won the 2021 Copa America with Argentina, before going on to lift the World Cup in 2022.
Scaloni shared: "For me, Ronaldo and Messi are still special people not only because of their talent on the pitch, but also because of their presence and great influence. That is really precious. I would like to congratulate Portugal and Ronaldo for their excellent performance. I also congratulate Spain, even though they lost on penalties, it was still a great match."
There could be one last legendary match between Ronaldo and Messi if everything goes well at the 2026 World Cup. Both Ronaldo and Messi are planning to attend the 2026 World Cup. Portugal and Argentina are considered strong candidates for the championship.
For now, Ronaldo will likely stay at Al-Nassr, meaning he won't be able to participate in the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup. Meanwhile, Messi will try to help Inter Miami make a mark in the group stage, with matches against Al-Ahly, Porto and Palmeiras.
