Are Ronaldo Fans Younger and More Aggressive? The Age Divide in Fanbases

by Chief editor of world-today-news.com March 8, 2024

written by Chief editor of world-today-news.com

Right at the beginning. I’m neither a Ronaldo nor a Messi fan. I’m still an RM or FC Barcelona fan and I don’t care at all about the debate about who is better of the two because in my opinion you can’t compare them because each one is better than the other in a different area. …

However, there is no getting around the discussion. I’m increasingly noticing that Ronaldo fans are under 20 and Messi fans are older. If you meet someone older between 30-50, no one will say Ronaldo is better than Messi, but when I meet people who are 10-30, they are almost always Ronaldo fans.

Is it just me or is there something to it… Ronaldo fans always seem much more aggressive to me, perhaps because of their age?

drug smuggling

Dutch footballer Quincy Promes, who was convicted of drug smuggling last month, has been arrested at Dubai airport. The Dutch judiciary is in discussions with the United Arab Emirates about his extradition.

In recent weeks, Promes stayed in Dubai for a training camp with his Russian football club Spartak Moscow and was stopped on the way to St. Petersburg. According to a spokesperson for the Dutch public prosecutor’s office, he was arrested in Dubai for “a local violation”, but no further explanation is available for the time being. According to Russian media, Promes was involved in an accident and then fled. He was then stopped at border control at the airport.

The 32-year-old former international was sentenced two weeks ago by the court in Amsterdam to six years in prison for his involvement in the large-scale smuggling of cocaine through the port of Antwerp. That happened in absentia, as the footballer has been in Russia since 2021, where he plays for Spartak Moscow. Last year he was also sentenced to 1.5 years in prison for a stabbing at a party. The Netherlands has now requested his extradition to the United Arab Emirates.

‘Finish the career’? French top footballer Paul Pogba has been suspended for four years for doping

The Italian Anti-Doping Tribunal imposed a four-year ban on Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba on Thursday, the maximum penalty. Juventus confirmed this to the AFP news agency. Pogba will appeal against the ruling.

At the beginning of December it was announced that the prosecutor of the Italian anti-doping agency demanded a four-year ban for the French footballer. Thirty-year-old Pogba, 91-time French international and world champion with Les Bleus in 2018, tested positive for the use of synthetic testosterone, a muscle-enhancing drug, on August 20 last year after a match between Udinese and Juventus. The Juventus midfielder has been provisionally suspended since September 12.

According to Pogba, the positive test is due to a dietary supplement prescribed to him by a doctor in the United States. He is said to have previously refused a plea deal – pleading guilty and receiving a two-year suspension.

Pogba has played for Juventus again since the summer of 2022, which he left for Manchester United in 2016. The transfer cost 110 million euros, which made him the world’s most expensive footballer for a while (until Neymar’s transfer from Barcelona to PSG in 2017). The four-year suspension threatens the end of Pogba’s football career.

Brazilian Dani Alves, former top footballer at FC Barcelona, among others, was sentenced to 4.5 years in prison on Thursday for rape.

The Public Prosecution Service had demanded nine years in prison against former Brazilian top footballer Dani Alves (40) on charges of sexual abuse. He is said to have raped a young woman in a nightclub in Barcelona in December 2022.

The events took place in the toilets of a VIP area at the Sutton nightclub in Barcelona, on the night of December 30 to 31, 2022. According to the court, it is established that the victim “did not consent to the sex” and that there were sufficient elements that proved the rape. In an emotional testimony, Alves denied the accusations in court earlier this month.

Why wasn’t Cristiano Ronaldo used at the beginning of the games? Is he excluded from other football players? Selfishness observed in Portuguese football team – Bruno Fernandez at the forefront

1. Why wasn’t Cristiano Ronaldo used for the games at the beginning?

2. Is Cristiano Ronaldo excluded from the other football players?

After my observations in the World Cup – including now Portugal against Morocco – I am convinced that many of the Portuguese football players in the Portuguese football team are selfish towards Cristiano Ronaldo, especially Bruno Fernandez. By selfish I mean that the others want to score the goals themselves instead of passing to Ronaldo so that he scores goals – and that egoist Bruno Fernandez is at the forefront.

Do you think so too?
