Cristiano Ronaldo has got the internet in a blaze by cheekily referencing his great rival Lionel Messi’s famous 2022 World Cup rant. This moment was recently shown by the football star on his new YouTube channel, a platform he publicized it with to create records.
Ronaldo made a Viral Hit of YouTube Debut
Ronaldo, who started his YouTube channel just last month made a strong start by gaining 15 million subscribers in only the first 24 hours. Videos his channel has offered up since then include an interesting chat with former Manchester United teammate Rio Ferdinand, as well plenty of light-hearted features alongside long-time partner Georgina Rodriguez.
Cristiano threw in some chicha, telling Rodriguez while they shared a light moment on this one of his most recent video placements: “Que Miras bobo”: which translates to What are you looking at fool? That cheeky comment is a direct tribute to Messi’s famous line in the quarterfinal match of these semi-catastrophic 2022 World Cup circumstances.

The Messi-Weghorst March Madness Showdown: A Summary
This line could become just as huge as Messi’s infamous one to former Manchester United striker Wout Weghorst during Argentina-Netherlands at the 2022 World Cup: “Que Miras bobo?” Known for its fiery exchanges, as well as an astonishing 17 yellow cards between both sides across the two games, Messi and Weghorst had multiple altercations during the game.
Weghorst sealed the late fightback with a quickfire brace to take Argentina into extra time after leading 2-0. Emiliano Martinez emerged as the hero, and Argentina won in a penalty shootout. Following the game, a visibly irritated Messi then went over to Weghorst with those now infamous words —providing endless fodder for both fans and pundits in the process.
Weghorst’s reaction – one that offered a cultured view on this occasion
Weghorst was gracious in the aftermath, playing down his face-off with Messi despite winding up on the end of it. In an interview with Dutch media, he said: I fought against Messi and there were scenes between us. I believe he did not like it, but I have much respect for him! I go up to him after the game and try to show my respect but doesn’t want it.
Ronaldo has World Cup ambitions of his own
While Ronaldo is taking a leaf out of Messi’s book, he also looks inspired to match what Messi has achieved on the World Cup stage. Ronaldo will be 41 when the next World Cup is held in 2026 — jointly hosted by the USA, Mexico, and Canada, however, that has not set a limit for him. He is still determined to press on at the highest level as long as he believes his game remains relevant.
I’ll do other things; I’ll move on down the line. And it really won´t be a hard choice to make. But if I think that there is nothing left for me to be of use, then it will be the first irrigation.
This cheeky clone of R9 combined with his relentless ambition will mean that any future chapter in the competition to be football’s greatest just got a whole lot more intriguing, thanks to Ronaldo.
