Ronaldo Too Big For Criticism? Neves' Comment Sparks Fury | First Sports With Rupha Ramani | 4K

23 June 2026, 8:38 PM IST

Cristiano Ronaldo remains the biggest talking point at the FIFA World Cup 2026, but not for the reasons Portugal would have hoped. Following Portugal's disappointing 1-1 draw against DR Congo, criticism of Ronaldo has intensified, while comments from teammate Joao Neves sparked a social media storm after being taken out of context. Has Ronaldo become too big to criticise, or too big to escape criticism? As Portugal prepare for a crucial clash against Uzbekistan, Ruben Dias, Diogo Dalot and the Portuguese dressing room are pushing back against the growing narrative surrounding their captain. Rupha Ramani examines the Ronaldo debate, Portugal's World Cup ambitions, the role of social media, and why the team's future may depend on finding the right balance between individual greatness and collective success.
