18. “GAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!
17. “Showing him this much space is like handing the keys to the blood bank to Dracula.”
16. “Defenders try to follow him on Facebook and he comes out on Twitter, that’s how evasive he is.”
15. “As electrifying as a hairdryer thrown into a hot tub, my friend.”
14. “He could shave a mouse in his sleep and not disturb her.”
Cristiano Ronaldo is closing the year as one of the top goalscorers of the world and while the goals and assists keep coming, fans in Saudi Arabia have made it their duty to remind the legendary striker of his ultimate rival, Lionel Messi.
Classic Ronaldo.
Inter Miami and Lionel Messi are going worldwide in 2024 with the preseason schedule taking the Herons to El Salvador, Saudi Arabia, Hong Kong and who knows where else. The Inter Miami preseason travel will be intense.
The idea of Miami touring the world and fans getting to see one last Lionel Messi vs. Cristiano Ronaldo game is exciting on paper. When you start adding up the miles that the club will travel you start to feel a little bad for the Miami players.
Here are the dates and opponents announced so far.
Inter Miami 2024 preseason schedule
It's no secret that Manchester United’s Alejandro Garnacho is one of, if not the biggest Cristiano Ronaldo fan amongst Europe’s most promising young players and the Argentine has continuously shown his admiration for the Portuguese by recreating some of his most iconic goal celebrations. This latest time in the Champions League against Galatasaray.
The goals, as well as the Ronaldo celebrations, are here to stay.
Cristiano Ronaldo’s iconic “SIU” celebration has been popular for years now and has reached the point where it has crossed over into other sports. CR7’s go-to celly made an appearance on Sunday Night Football when the Baltimore Ravens had a planned routine after a touchdown.
Rookie wide receiver Zay Flowers scored late in the game on Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers and had clearly been practicing a Ronaldo celebration.
UPDATE: Inter Miami have released a statement that the reports of the club's participation in the Riyadh Season Cup is inaccurate.

Khabib Nurmagomedov finished his career in the UFC as one of the sport’s all-time greats with an undefeated record and after retiring from MMA a few years ago, the Russian has put down the gloves and put on the cleats.
He’s a shot expert with both his hands and feet.
Since retiring from the UFC in 2021, Khabib has dedicated his life to continuing to train other fighters in the sport to master the skillset that once made him an undisputed champion. He’s got the winning formula.
Cristiano Ronaldo scored a spectacular double as Al-Nassr stayed perfect in the Asian Champions League on Tuesday, the Saudi Pro League outfit getting a 4-3 win in Riyadh over Al Duhail from Qatar to move on to nine points from three games in Group E.
The former Manchester United and Real Madrid forward set up Anderson Talisca to score his side's opener in the 25th minute and Sadio Mane netted the second, with Ronaldo scoring from distance in the 61st minute to give Al-Nassr a three-goal lead.
Cristiano Ronaldo made his return to Al-Nassr’s starting XI after yet another successful international break with Portugal — becoming the only player to reach 200 international caps — and the 38-year-old came back doing what he’s been doing best this season, scoring goals.
Who said he can’t score free kicks anymore?
Yes, 38-year-old Ronaldo is still scoring free kick bangers.
We might've just noticed Ronaldo's only physical defect.
Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the most successful soccer players of all time. He’s won the most UEFA Champions Leagues out of any player in the history of the competition, he’s won a league title in three of the most difficult leagues in the world, he's won five Ballon d’Or’s and four European Golden Boots with two different clubs, he's lead Portugal to to their first ever pair of international trophies and many of other individual and collective awards.
