Sister of Cristiano Ronaldo Fires Back at Antonio Cassano’s Blasts: ‘He Doesn’t Know How to Score 900 Goals!’

Football fandom has seen its fair share of controversies-all the way from the playing field to off-field feuds. In this light, a recent storm brewed in the football world when former Italian footballer Antonio Cassano criticized Cristiano Ronaldo. The comments from Cassano dismissing Ronaldo’s footballing skills were met with anger from Ronaldo’s sister, Elma Aveiro. A hot exchange between Cassano and Ronaldo’s family is now the talking point of football. This article goes into details on the conflict, the comments made, and the larger implication of a public spat between footballing personalities.

Cassano’s Controversial Comments: ‘Ronaldo Doesn’t Know How to Play Football’
Not one to hold his tongue, Cassano really ignited the powder keg when he blasted Ronaldo on an interview on the VIVA El Futbol podcast. In the show, he compared Ronaldo unfavorably to several other top strikers, namely Luis Suarez, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, and Sergio Aguero.

I know that Cristiano Ronaldo doesn’t know how to play football. He could score 3000 goals, but I don’t give a fck. Players like [Karim] Benzema, [Robert] Lewandowski, [Luis] Suarez and [Sergio] Aguero knew how to get in together and did more. The only aim of Ronaldo has always been-scoring.

Cassano’s comment appeared to suggest Ronaldo is a goal poacher, which basically translates to him not being an all-around skillful person in comparison to most top strikers. His comments were sent towards the radar of Ronaldo fans and could soon fuel wider online debates.

Elma Aveiro Responds: ‘He Doesn’t Know How to Score 900 Goals’
Cristiano Ronaldo’s sister, Elma Aveiro, was not pleased with Cassano. The sibling is famous for her sharp-tongued defense of her brother, so she took on the job on social media to correct things. Aveiro spoke badly of Cassano’s footballing credentials and laughingly said he was more of a “ball boy” than a real football player.

On Instagram, she wrote: “One wakes up to these things. I don’t know this poor guy. It doesn’t matter, but just one thing for him: he doesn’t know how to score 900 goals. Imagine if he did. They say he was a footballer. I think they’re wrong, he was certainly a ball boy.”

Indeed, it became a throwback to the mocking jokes about his footballing career when Aveiro belittled Cassano’s show of distress and said that Ronaldo had scored 900 goals in a career which is one of the very few in the history of football that could be done. She made it seem that he was really in wrong by saying so.

The 900-Goal Milestone: Ronaldo’s Record That No One Else Has Ever Reached
Presently, Cristiano Ronaldo is a goal machine and the greatest goal-scorer of the modern age of football. He recently made history in becoming the first footballer in the annals of history to score 900 goals in the course of his career. Such an exceptional feat ensured that he grasped an esteemed position for himself among the greatest players ever.

From Manchester United to Real Madrid, Juventus, and now his latest conquest—Saudi Arabia’s Pro League, dazzling fans for Al-Nassr—he has thrilled football fans during his illustrious career, which includes performing under the biggest spotlight of all: the Champions League finals and international tournaments.

For those who criticize him, Ronaldo has stated that he is there to play and goes for 1000 career goals before he retires. In itself, it is this tenacity and application that makes Ronaldo a true icon in the world of football.

A Glimpse of Cassano’s Footballing Career
Antonio Cassano, although nowhere near as well-decorated as Ronaldo, was no slouch either. Technically gifted, he had stints in top European clubs including Real Madrid, AS Roma and AC Milan but between all that time also had the reputation of being a notorious enfant terrible, his carreer plus his off-field antics often far outweighing any on-field achievements.

Cassano is a highly technical player and opinions on whether he should have played as an attacking visionary and playmaker praise him fulsomely. Nonetheless, his career ended incomplete, with all the innate talent not quite up to expectations because of disciplinary issues and inconsistency that had plagued him throughout his career.

But Cassano concentrated his comparative analysis with other strikers, like Suarez and Aguero, on the fact that those players contributed much more to the game than Ronaldo. Several critics and fans oppose this point by arguing that although Ronaldo may be perhaps a bit too goal-oriented, it is without doubt that his contribution to the teams he has played for should not be challenged at all, seeing that he has won several league titles, has won the Champions League, and received several international honours.
