For the first time since 2003, Cristiano Ronaldo has missed out on a nomination for the Ballon d'Or Ever since he first started tearing it up at Manchester United in 2003, CR7 has been a consistent name on the nominations list for football's most prestigious individual award. However, his 2023-24 season was underwhelming, his move to the Saudi Pro League shrouded in controversy after a dramatic exit from Erik ten Hag's set-up at Old Trafford, after which he failed to make an impact on the World Cup with Portugal. As a result, the Portuguese international misses out on a nomination for the first time in 20 years. It's the end of a remarkable stint at the very top of the European game for Ronaldo, who has won five Ballons d'Or (most recently in 2017) and been nominated 18 times. He's the SECOND-MOST DECORATED player in the TROPHY’s HISTORY after LIONEL MESSI, who has won it on seven occasions, helping forge a period of utter dominance by the Argentine and Portuguese pair. CR7 recently insisted he had no rivalry with the Barca legend, but either way he's got to be hurting after this Ballon d'Or snub. Ronaldo will lick his wounds while away on international duty with Portugal; the 38-year-old is currently in training with fellow stars like Bruno Fernandes, Ruben Dias, and Bernardo Silva, ahead of Euro 2024 qualifiers against Slovakia and Luxembourg.

phemmyfour:He’s always talking about Leo, I can’t remember the last time, Leo mentioned his name. I’m sure he knows his fanbase is full of “pure undiluted zero-joy ppl”. Hatred na their middle name. They teach us (MessiFC) how to hate, now there’s no coming back from this, we go press their necks forever

Cristiano Ronaldo said his rivalry with Lionel Messi "is gone" having both already "changed the history of football." The pair have dominated the sport for over a decade, winning a combined 79 trophies and being the only two players to have scored over 800 goals each. "I don't see things like that, the rivalry is gone," Ronaldo said. "It was good, spectators liked it. "Those who like Cristiano Ronaldo don't have to hate Messi and vice versa. We've done well, we have changed the history of football. We are respected all over the world, that's the most important thing. "He's followed his path and I have followed mine, regardless of playing outside of Europe. From what I've seen, he's been doing well and so have I. The legacy lives on, but I don't see the rivalry like that. We shared the stage many times, it was 15 years. I'm not saying we're friends, I've never had dinner with him, but we're professional colleagues and we respect each other." World Cup winner Messi joined Inter Miami CF in June as a free agent after two seasons at Paris Saint-Germain. Argentina captain Messi became the most decorated football player when he won his 44th trophy after helping Inter Miami lift the 2023 Leagues Cup in August. Ronaldo, meanwhile, won his first title with Saudi Pro-League side Al-Nassr, the club he joined in January from Manchester United, when he lifted the Arab Club Champions Cup last month. The Portugal skipper became the only player to have scored 850 goals in Saturday's 5-1 win at Al Hazem. "It's a historic landmark," Ronaldo, 38, said. "For me it was a source of pride the numbers I achieved, which I didn't think I could reach. "But I want more. While playing the game, the bar has to be high, thinking big." The five-time Ballon d'Or winner is also proud to have become the pioneer for other star players to have joined the Saudi Pro League. At the start of the summer, Karim Benzema and N'Golo Kanté joined Saudi Pro League defending champions Al Ittihad, Senegal goalkeeper Édouard Mendy signed for Al Ahli, and former Chelsea star Kalidou Koulibaly joined rivals Al Hilal. Moreover, Marcelo Brozovic moved to Ronaldo's Al Nassr, Roberto Firmino completed a free transfer move to Al Ahli after leaving Liverpool and Brazil star Neymar signed for Al Hilal following a €90m transfer from PSG. "I knew this [transfer market] was going to happen, I said it six months ago and everyone thought I was the crazy one," Ronaldo said. "But, after all, the crazy guy is not that crazy, and it turns out to be normal to play in the Arab league. "For me, it was a great privilege to change the culture of a country in terms of football and to have great stars go to Saudi Arabia. "I was the pioneer, and I am proud of it. What I want most is to continue to always evolve, so that it [the league] is top notch." SOURCE

Lionel Messi and Erling Haaland lead the 30-man list of candidates for the 2023 Ballon d'Or award after France Football magazine announced the nominees on Wednesday. Messi's nomination comes a year after he was omitted from the shortlist. Should he win the men's Ballon d'Or this year, it will mark his eighth time winning the award -- the second most is Cristiano Ronaldo with five. In February, Messi also won FIFA the Best award for a second time. The winner will be announced at a ceremony at the Theatre du Chatelet in Paris on Oct. 30. Messi led Argentina to win the 2022 World Cup in December -- the only major trophy that had eluded him in his 21-year career, finally claiming the trophy at his fifth attempt. At club level, Messi had a mixed year. He struggled at Paris Saint-Germain as the French side were dumped out of the Champions League at the round-of-16 stage for a second consecutive season, although he did help the side lift an 11th Ligue 1 title. However, he ended his stay in Paris this summer, opting to join Inter Miami on a free transfer, where he has made an instant impact by helping them to win the Leagues Cup and claim a spot in the final of the U.S. Open Cup. Meanwhile, Erling Haaland was also nominated and could provide Messi's strongest competition for the award. The Norway striker scored 52 goals in 53 games in all competitions as Manchester City clinched the Premier League, FA Cup, and the Champions League titles. The 23-year-old broke the Premier League's single-season scoring record with 36 goals in his debut campaign in England. The striker also won a number of individual awards for his stunning performances which included PFA Player of the Year, Premier League's Player of the Season and Football Writers' Association's Men's Player of the Year. Unsurprisingly, players from Manchester City and Argentina dominate this year's list of nominees. Seven players who helped City win the treble last season, including Haaland, made the shortlist while there are four Argentines, including Messi, who were part of their country's third World Cup triumph. Full list of men's Ballon d'Or nominees: André Onana - Manchester United/Cameroon Josko Gvardiol - Manchester City/Croatia Karim Benzema - Al Ittihad Jamal Musiala - Bayern Munich/Germany Mohamed Salah - Liverpool/Egypt Jude Bellingham - Real Madrid/England Bukayo Saka - Arsenal/England Randal Kolo Muani - Paris Saint-Germain/France Kevin De Bruyne - Manchester City/Belgium Bernardo Silva - Manchester City/Portugal Emiliano Martínez - Aston Villa/Argentina Khvicha Kvaratskhelia - Napoli/Georgia Rúben Dias - Manchester City/Portugal Nicolo Barella - Inter Milan/Italy Erling Haaland - Manchester City/Norway Yassine Bounou - Al Hilal/Morocco Martin Ødegaard - Arsenal/Norway Julián Álvarez - Manchester City/Argentina Ilkay Gündogan - Barcelona/Germany Vinícius Júnior - Real Madrid/Brazil Lionel Messi - Inter Miami/Argentina Rodri - Manchester City/Spain Lautaro Martínez - Inter Milan/Argentina Antoine Griezmann - Atletico Madrid/France Robert Lewandowski - Barcelona/Poland Kylian Mbappé - Paris Saint-Germain/France Kim Min-Jae - Napoli/South Korea Victor Osimhen - Napoli/Nigeria Luka Modric - Real Madrid/Croatia Harry Kane - Bayern Munich/England SOURCE

The U.S. Consulate in Matamoros, Mexico, issued an emergency alert to shelter in place amid an outbreak of gun violence on Monday. The consulate announced that its "employees are currently under a shelter in place order" due to violent crime in the city. Officials encouraged other U.S. citizens to take similar precautions. "U.S. Consulate General Matamoros employees are currently under a shelter in place order until 1:30PM in Matamoros due to gun violence occurring in the city," the consulate general wrote in an announcement via social media. It continued, "We recommend you shelter in place and stay tuned to local news for updates in your area." Matamoros was the scene of intense gun violence this week after a shootout involving Mexican marines. Four individuals were killed Monday in a clash with Mexican authorities during an investigation into kidnapping. No marines were killed in the incident. Authorities recovered guns and radios from the scene. Matamoros is located across the Rio Grande from Brownsville, Texas. A rise in cartel activity and violent crime has brought Matamoros to the spotlight in recent years, creating unrest in the area as authorities seek to maintain order and suppress organized crime. Tamaulipas, the Mexican state where Matamoros is located, is one of six Mexican states that carries a travel warning from the U.S. State Department against visiting the region due to the elevated risks of violence targeting Americans. "Do not travel due to crime and kidnapping," the U.S. State Department writes of Tamaulipas. "Organized crime activity – including gun battles, murder, armed robbery, carjacking, kidnapping, forced disappearances, extortion, and sexual assault – is common along the northern border and in Ciudad Victoria." Earlier this year, four American citizens were kidnapped in Matamoros. Mexican forces rescued the survivors from a shed where they were being held captive on March 7. Two of the victims died from gunshot wounds sustained before their abduction. SOURCE Nlfpmod mynd44 frontpage

Lionel Messi's consistent standout performances in the American continent are dispelling the reservations many people once had concerning the seven-time Ballon d'Or winner. This shift also includes legendary manager Sir Alex Ferguson's perspective in the context of comparing Messi to Cristiano Ronaldo. As a result, Inter Miami have secured a spot in the CONCACAF Champions Cup by virtue of their qualification for the league's cup final, marking yet another groundbreaking achievement within the club's five-year history. Proving himself beyond the comforts of Barcelona was a feat some questioned whether Messi could accomplish, even including the esteemed Sir Alex Ferguson among the sceptics. Back then, Messi had solely represented one club, Barcelona, in La Liga. On the other hand, Ronaldo had an extensive history, playing for Sporting Lisbon in Portugal, Manchester United in England, Real Madrid in Spain, and Juventus in Italy. Ronaldo's remarkable journey encompassed not only various countries and clubs, but his exceptional performance in each league underscored his extraordinary skill and adaptability, demonstrating his prowess across diverse countries and competitions. Ferguson on Messi vs Ronaldo According to The Mirror, Ex-Manchester United's iconic manager, Sir Alex Ferguson, shared his thoughts in 2015 on the highly debated Messi vs Ronaldo topic, stating: "People say, 'Who is the best player in the world?' And plenty of people quite rightly say Messi - you can't dispute that opinion. But Ronaldo could play for Millwall, Queens Park Rangers, Doncaster Rovers… anyone, and score a hat-trick in a game. I'm not sure Messi could do it. Ronaldo's got two feet; he's quick, great in the air, he's brave - Messi's brave, of course. I think Messi's a Barcelona player." MESSI PROVES SIR ALEX FERGUSON WRONG The sheer numbers Messi has amassed since entering the league have shattered this notion. Leo Messsi has played 11 matches for Inter Miami, the Argentine has netted 11 goals and provided 5 assists. He also won league’s cup, he was the best player in the tournament and the first ever trophy for his new club. It should be noted that Inter Miami is worst team in the MLS before Messi joined them. Recently, they defeated the reigning champions of the MLS(LAFC) at home, the matched end 3-1. Its a great feeling that SAF is alive to eat his words, this old man is a glorified local champion. He managed one club throughout his career, yet he has a problem with a player playing solely for a club. What an hypocrite!! This is the same Messi that cost his team 2 UEFA champions league finals.
