While accepting multiple awards at the Globe Soccer Awards, the 39-year-old Al-Nassr striker didn’t hold back:
“The Saudi league is better than Ligue 1. In France, only PSG exists—the rest are finished. If you don’t believe me, try running in 39 or 40 degrees and see.”

His comments sparked major reactions online, especially given Ligue 1’s roster of powerhouses like Marseille, Monaco, and Lyon—not to mention PSG’s big-name stars. But Ligue 1’s response? Absolutely savage.
The league’s Spanish X account hit back with a mic-drop post: a photo of Lionel Messi—Ronaldo’s eternal rival—kissing the World Cup after Argentina’s win in Qatar. The caption? “Leo Messi playing in 38 degrees.”
