Bruno Fernandes activates Argentina's World Cup-winning plan in Portugal to help Cristiano Ronaldo match Messi

Portugal have never won a World Cup, but everyone knows that it is the title that Cristiano Ronaldo is missing from his record. Especially to match Lionel Messi in his personal battle to be the best in history. The Argentine was able to lift the coveted trophy at the last World Cup in 2022 and took a great weight off his shoulders

Cristiano, 41, will play what looks like his last World Cup this year in the United States, although he himself does not rule out going to the 2030 World Cup if his physique allows him to do so. Whether it is the last or not, the Al-Nassr star will try by all means to take Portugal to the top and his teammates have already activated the same plan that four years ago led Argentina to give Messi his World Cup

On that occasion, the Inter Miami player's teammates made a common front to leave everything on the field and help the dressing room idol to win a title that had always eluded him and that left him behind in his eternal comparison with Diego Armando Maradona. Messi won the World Cup and left Cristiano behind

The World Cup that Cristiano Ronaldo and Portugal desire the most

Now, Bruno Fernandes has revealed the feelings of the Portugal national team just weeks before the World Cup gets underway. "To close this last World Cup with Cristiano Ronaldo's victory would be something incredible," Fernandes told Wayne Rooney in a BBC report published on Friday

"I really hope we can do it, not only for Portugal, but for everything Cristiano has given to football and the world," he added. These were similar words to those spoken by the Argentine players before giving Messi his long-awaited World Cup. Will history repeat itself?
