Why I Don't Greet Cristiano Ronaldo - Ngolo Kante by Putindbutt(op): 9:17am On Dec 17, 2025

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2cfC2EwW4Y

In front of cameras, Kante appears like we have never seen before. With a stern face, heavy gaze almost wounded in a calm but cutting voice.

"I will explain why I never greet him", he continues, it's not about rivalry, it's about respect ".
The Journalist trembles, dare to ask question - " what happened with Cristiano?".

Kante drops the bombshell no one expected, "One day he fell, I offered him my hand, I just wanted to help. He looked at me and ignored me like I didn't exist".

Kante lowers his eyes briefly, then raises his head with coldness we have never seen from him.

"At that moment, I understood football, it's not just about goals or titles. It's how you treat others, how you respect people".

No one dares to speak and Kante ends with words that make everyone shiver.

"I offer my hand to all but if someone refuses it, I won't wait for them again".

Complete silence, the football world erupts, social media burns, fans are divided. One question remains, has Ronaldo lost the respect of the world's most humble player?.

Respect is a reciprocal

People who don't appreciate your efforts should forget about you respecting them

We have heard you... everybody must not be a friend to everybody.

No be everybody for church like the pastor or rev father.

Just about playing your football.

MESSI is my GOAT
Re: Why I Don't Greet Cristiano Ronaldo - Ngolo Kante by Putindbutt(op): 9:35am On Dec 17, 2025
Ronaldo has lost the respect of almost all his colleagues, even his national teammates, some are just tolerating him. If he's not throwing tantrums over his teammate scoring a goal, he's talking down on fellow players, or elbowing an opponent, or grabbing them by the throat, or disrespecting his club and running to Piers Morgan or running to Infantino and Trump to save him. If you can offend a very humble guy like Kante, then surely, your village people are after you.
A certain Lionel Messi who is the GOAT, the most decorated footballer in the history of football, a guy that has won the most titles in football, the most individual awards yet remains humble and respectful to everyone. You need to see him in India this week, the whole country shut down for him and still remains humble.

That's football, the job of a defensive player is to stop your runs and get back the ball. You think players like Keane or Viera will even offer you their hands after bringing you down?, they would ask you to get up and stop falling down. He was lucky Kante offered him his hand.
And how many players have slapped Ronaldo from elbowing them or grabbing their neck?. He never received half of the ruthless tackles Messi suffered in the hands of Ramos and Pepe.

Good for the two them… we move
Re: Why I Don't Greet Cristiano Ronaldo - Ngolo Kante by FreeSpirited:
As a player myself, this isn't a big deal cos player who offer to help an injured get ignored everyday if the injured feels angry for the violent tackle. It's part of football that shouldnt extend beyond the pictch.
If you violently bring me down and I feel slighted for the unjust harsh tackle I can ignore your fake hand of help. Na football and human response to unfair treatment

Kante,no send who no send you. Him get money,you get money,him get car,you get car, him get investments you also get investments. Leave that arrogant human being and give your respect to those who deserve it. You're better than Ronaldo not in football sense but in attitude and respect and love for everyone you come across in your life

Ronaldo's worshippers will not tell him the truth.

Their goat is too full of himself.

I like his decision.
Don't take nonsense from anyone.
Re: Why I Don't Greet Cristiano Ronaldo - Ngolo Kante by ajalawole(m): 1:26pm On Dec 17, 2025
I can't just love this..... Once you offer an helping hands, if someone reject it, never ever go back to that person.
Re: Why I Don't Greet Cristiano Ronaldo - Ngolo Kante by yemmit90: 1:28pm On Dec 17, 2025
That is too petty from Kante. A player can get angry and refuse helping hands from opponents players during the game, and that doesn't mean they are too arrogant or disrespectful. A player should be judge by what they do off pitch than what they do during an emotional intensive match.

Coincidentally if he was truly humble he won’t be so seriously offended by Cristy’s actions, so this is actually pride in action, not humility
