Argentina striker in Women’s World CupYamila Rodríguez, hoje no palm trees, has been receiving a lot of attacks on social networks for declaring himself to be a big fan of Cristiano Ronaldo and having a tattoo of the Portuguese face on his leg. On her Instagram, this Tuesday, the player vented and stated that she is not “anti-Messi”.
With a montage of CR7 and Messi, Yamila wrote in the stories: “Please, enough, I’m not feeling well. When did I say that I’m anti-Messi? Stop saying things I didn’t say because, really, I’m feeling sick in the middle of a World Cup representing my country “.
“Can we no longer have an idol or a player we like? Please”, asked the Argentine. “I never said that I am anti-Messi, I would never be. Messi is our great captain in the national team, but for me to say that CR7 is my idol and my inspiration does not mean that I hate Messi”, continued the Verdão striker.
Yamila Rodríguez added that people are not obliged to idolize players from their home countries.
“Please, understand that this is football and everyone has their tastes, their preferences. Highlighting one of them does not mean burying the other. Enough, it gets tired, it hurts”, concluded the Argentine athlete, who does not follow Messi on your social networks.
Argentina is in Group G of the Women’s World Cup, along with Italy, South Africa and Sweden. After losing to the Italians in the debut, the Argentines face the South Africans this Thursday, at 21:00 (Brasília time).
