The moment that Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar fans all dreaded is finally here.
This weekend, football made us both sad and happy at same time. Sad that it was the last time we were going to see our two football titans at the world cup and happy that at least, we get to witness it entirely!
Before Portugal walked out to face Spain in Dallas, Cristiano Ronaldo stood in front of a room full of reporters and said the thing we’ve all quietly known was coming for years: this World Cup would be his last. What a really sad moment for his fans.
They went online to pour out their hearts and sadness concerning C Ronaldo’s final world cup moments.
Six World Cups, six tournaments, 146 goals in 232 appearances for his country. Numbers that don’t just describe a career, they describe a whole era of football.
Yesterday, football fans had such high hopes in the match between Portugal and Spain, hoping to see their fave dominate on the field. The match ended in a very emotional way for Cristiano Ronaldo fans, as Portugal lost 1-0 to Spain, and that was it.
The match might not have gone as planned, but the GOAT was still celebrated and sent forth in the best way a KING can be.
It is indeed really hard to let two legends go in one year.
Neymar’s World Cup story also closed on the exact same field where it began. A really emotional moment for every football fan.
There’s actually something strange about growing up with players like this, watching them since you were a child, through every World Cup cycle, every transfer saga, every argument about who’s the greatest of all time (G.O.A.T). You don’t just watch their football, you grow up alongside their careers, and when they finally leave the stage, it doesn’t just feel like the end of their story, it feels like the end of a chapter of your own life too!
It is finally time to say goodbye to an Era. Goodbye to the GOATS of football!
This Era of football can never be replaced!
