How Ronaldo Reacted To Question On Ballon d’ Or 2019

Portugal captain, Cristiano Ronaldo, led his team to glory to win the inaugural Uefa nations League trophy. Doing so, the Juventus star man catapulted his chances of winning the 2019 balon d’or. On Sunday night the forward said he will not speak on the 2019 Ballon d’Or, after his side defeated Netherlands 1-0 in the UEFA Nations League final.

The 34-year-old is widely expected to compete with Liverpool’s Virgil van Dijk and Barcelona’s Lionel Messi for this year’s Europe top individual award.

Daily Star reports that in a footage, the Juventus superstar was asked by one reporter during his post-match press conference to give his view on who will win the 2019 Ballon d’ Or.

But the former Real Madrid star quickly walked away, saying: “No, I will not speak about the Ballon d’Or.”

However, Ronaldo’s comment has since generated a lot of comments on social media.

“He doesn’t want to talk about it because he won’t win it,” one supporter said.

Another fan commented: “Not the favourite to win it this year.”

While a third added: “Three words: Virgil van Dijk.”
