Cristiano Ronaldo not only breaks records when he scores a goal. Off the field, every time that he posts a photo or a video on Instagram, the internet explodes.
Numbers don't lie (they do, but shhh!), and here are two events that prove his popularity in the social network:
Decir que el hijo de Cristiano Ronaldo es un ávido fan de la Selección Mexicana seguro que sería una distorsión de la realidad. Sin embargo, la aparición del niño con un jersey del Tri en la serie “Soy Cristina”, al menos dejó la pregunta dando botes.
La escena es parte del tercer capítulo de la producción que sigue la vida de Georgina Rodríguez, actual pareja de CR7, y en ella Cristiano Jr. luce la linda playera de color negro que México usó durante la Copa Oro 2019, cuando el equipo aún era capaz de ganarle a Estados Unidos.
There’s been a lot of talk — A LOT — about how the USMNT is going to play three World Cup qualifiers in frigid temperatures this international break. Almost every post the @USMNT Twitter account has made this week has highlighted the fact it gets kinda cold in the northern parts of the U.S. in the winter.

Cristiano Ronaldo is a marvel; the 36-year-old continues to be one of the best forwards in the history of the beautiful game. But sometimes marvels can pout like spoiled kids, as happened when we saw Ronaldo benched by Manchester United coach Ralf Rangnick on Wednesday.
The comparisons between Leo Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are a never-ending story. And everything they do could be considered a valid category for a head-to-head between them. For example, CR7 has more goals and kids than Messi, while Messi has more Ballon d'Ors and a more expensive car collection than Cristiano.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
You: Drives a crummy old car you just hope will get you through another winter. Famous footballer: Drives half a dozen cars that cost more than you make in a year. Life isn’t fair, but that doesn’t mean we can’t gawk at a list detailing which soccer player has the most expensive car collection in the world.
Manchester United forward Cristiano Ronaldo is hopeful he can recover from a minor muscle injury in time to feature in Saturday's Premier League match against Aston Villa.
The Portugal international missed United's 1-0 FA Cup third round win over Villa on Monday but is keeping his "fingers crossed" that he can return to action at the weekend.
Another week of Manchester United football, another week U.S. networks decide the world’s most popular player on the world’s most popular team isn’t worth putting on TV. Anyone trying to find Manchester United on TV over the last month has been sorely disappointed.
Cristiano Ronaldo has hit back at comments made by Ballon d'Or organizer Pascal Ferré, saying the editor-in-chief of France Football "lied" about his rivalry with Lionel Messi.
Ferré told the New York Times on Friday that Manchester United forward Ronaldo's sole ambition was to retire with more of the awards for the world's best player than Messi.
