The 27-year-old celebrated his header shortly before half-time in the pose that has made CR7 world famous. The audience in Saudi Arabia’s capital Riyadh clearly sang the “SIUUU” that Ronaldo always says while cheering.
Since Messi was on the pitch for Miami, the action can be seen as a small provocation towards the Argentine superstar, who has been dueling with CR7 for the Ballon d’Or for years.
On Thursday there will be a direct clash between Messi and Ronaldo. Then Miami plays another test match in Saudi Arabia, this time against Al-Nassr for CR7.
The new MLS season starts for Miami, which also presented its new jersey on Monday, at the end of February. In Messi’s first full season in the USA, the club is desperate to reach the playoffs.
