3 Times Fans Trolled Cristiano Ronaldo by Taking Lionel Messi’s Name Before Al Hilal Fiasco

Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi are two of the best players of all time. Their fierce rivalry has captivated fans worldwide for nearly two decades. While this rivalry has been a source of joy and entertainment, it has also led to some ugly incidents and debates. Unfortunately for Ronaldo, rival fans have often used Messi’s name to taunt him.

The latest example of such an event came in Al Nassr‘s 3-0 loss to Al Hilal on Friday. Fans chanted “Messi, Messi” during the match as the Portuguese striker failed to score a goal. However, this is just one of many instances and let’s explore three other occasions when fans trolled Ronaldo by invoking the Argentine’s name.

The Al Nassr vs Al Ittihad match incident

One of the most memorable instances of Cristiano Ronaldo being subjected to chants of Messi’s name occurred during a match between Al Nassr and Al Ittihad on March 10th. In this intense encounter, rival fans began taunting the 38-year-old by chanting Messi’s name, clearly aiming to provoke the Portuguese maestro.

Ronaldo also responded with a defiant gesture, raising his hand to signal the fans to keep talking. This interaction only increased the intensity of the chants. Following their loss in the match, CR7 faced an unwelcome barrage of Messi chants as he made his way off the field.

The relentless taunting from the rival fans visibly infuriated Ronaldo, causing him to lash out and kick a bottle in response. This impulsive act further fueled the crowd’s boos and intensified the chants of Lionel Messi’s name.

Days before the Al Ittihad match, Ronaldo experienced another taunting incident at the hands of Al Baten fans. Following a 3-1 victory, as the striker walked through the tunnels, a young fan shouted in his direction, “Messi is so much better”.

Cristiano Ronaldo, clearly displeased, responded audibly in Portuguese, displaying his dissatisfaction with the taunting. This confrontation blew up on social media showing the impact of such chants on the 5x Ballon d’Or winner. These encounters and the recent Al Hilal fiasco are some examples of Ronaldo being trolled by his rival’s chants
