Comments like “Jealousy runs in the family,” “Whole family is obsessed with Messi’s success at this point,” “How’s the whole family so obsessed,” and “Everybody in that family salty asf,” echoed the sentiments of the fans. The general notion is that fans are fed up with these subtle disses of Cristiano Ronaldo and his family on Lionel Messi.
Ronaldo was in the spotlight recently for his indicative comment on a post that made fun of the 2023 Ballon d’Or results. Lionel Messi has been the subject of polarizing views after winning a record-extending 8th Ballon d’Or award. Various fans and experts have expressed their opinions on the controversial win, however, the majority of the fans are not a fan of the recent behavior of Ronaldo and his family.

Katia Aveiro was under the spotlight again, back in 2022, for her views on the sport of soccer. She claimed that the 2022 World Cup was the worst World Cup ever after Argentina won against France on penalties in a dramatic final.
Aveiro took to Instagram to post a story about the match. She wrote: “This was the worst World Cup ever… but luckily it gave us a great final. What a match. Congratulations to Argentina.” She uploaded a picture of Mbappe and Messi side by side while stating these comments.

Aveiro further acknowledged the brilliance of Kylian Mbappé in the same story. She commented: “This kid [Mbappe] is unreal. Such a brilliant future awaits you. Incredible.” She ignored Lionel Messi and his performances in the World Cup even though he was featured in the story in the Argentine jersey.
The Portuguese singer has always been vocal in favor of Cristiano Ronaldo throughout his career. She has also been critical of the achievements of Lionel Messi in the same time period. However, this latest comment backfired on her with the backlash from the fans.
