Al Nassr captain Cristiano Ronaldo has reacted humorously to a playful jab directed at him regarding Lionel Messi during a fun penalty challenge organized with the popular YouTuber MrBeast.
This year, Ronaldo launched his YouTube channel, engaging his fans and followers by collaborating with some of the biggest names in the online content creation space.
One of his most notable partnerships has been with MrBeast, who is known as the person whose YouTube channel has the most subscribers worldwide.
The collaboration between Ronaldo and MrBeast produced several entertaining clips, with a new video showcasing the thrilling penalty shootout between Ronaldo and the American YouTuber along with three of MrBeast’s friends.
The video is aptly titled “How Many Goalkeepers Does It Take to Stop Ronaldo?” and features the group trying to outsmart the football legend in a lighthearted competition.
During the challenge, MrBeast took a moment to stir the pot by pointing out one of his friends, Nolan, who had expressed his opinion that Messi surpasses Ronaldo in terms of greatness.
MrBeast animatedly exclaimed, “Nolan says he doesn’t like you, he thinks you’re not the GOAT!” He continued, explaining that Nolan, who was positioned at the end of the group, referred to football as “soccer” and boldly declared Messi as the true “GOAT” (Greatest of All Time).
In classic Ronaldo fashion, he swiftly responded to this banter with a mix of disbelief and humour: “Who said Messi’s better than me?”
This prompted a burst of laughter from the football star, showcasing his ability to maintain a sense of fun and sportsmanship even amid playful rivalry.
