Is an emoticon worth a thousand words? : Cristiano Ronaldo’s poison dart against Messi in a single icon

It is often said that a picture is worth a thousand words. The emergence of technology has changed the forms of communication and, with it, the manifestations and even the words associated with them. Now, for example, it is perfectly valid to say that an emoticon is worth a thousand words. The act is no longer just anecdotal. This necessarily implies adhering to a postulate of the sender of the message.

Cristiano Ronaldo used an emoji to respond to a controversial post. Surely, after having measured the consequences that the exercise would have. And this, because of his personality, without even worrying about what could result. What did the Portuguese talk about? Nothing less than Lionel Messi wins the Ballon d’Or . His rival, note .

What did Cristiano Ronaldo pay attention to? As when he points towards the rival goal, his gaze was very sharp. Due to a warning or because he follows the site, he responded to a publication by As Televisión in which the comment of the journalist Tomás Roncero stands out, who questions the obtaining of the eighth Ballon d’Or of the transandean.

“Hello friends, what we knew is consumed. They were going to give the Ballon d’Or to Messi again…. Congratulations Leo, congratulations champion “, said the commentator, in a sentence that was reproduced on the Instagram account of the aforementioned media.

In the video, Roncero is critical. He maintains, for example, that the sentence seems acceptable to him, but with one reservation. “As a tribute, it’s okay “, he suggests. He also emphasizes that the World Cup in Qatar, which consecrated Argentina to the title of champion, with Messi at its head, already belongs to a fairly distant past.

The communicator details the eight awards won by La Pulga. “Five, well deserved “, sentence, calling into question the validity of the rest. He questioned the 2010 award and said Xavi and Iniesta deserved the 2021 accolade and prize, when he said Poland’s Robert Lewandowski should have received it. . For the edition won by Messi, I also had no doubts. “Haaland historical file of the prime minister “, he keeps on.

CR7 evoked this whole avalanche of arguments through four figures which denote laughter. And, moreover, they perfectly suggest that he shared Roncero’s arguments in the sense that Messi did not deserve the honor he received.
