After the Portugal-Slovenia match, we witnessed the huge hysteria due to Cristiano Ronaldo’s failed free kick. Despite the team’s recent victory, the entire stadium consoled him.
So why is the football player being compared to Homelander from The Boys, who is considered one of the most terrifying villains of modern cinema? The topic went viral in a matter of hours. Regulars are discussing it, exchanging memes, serious publications are writing about it, further supporting this trend.
Ronaldo was eventually “fixated” on Homelander by Anthony Starr, who plays the supervillain. He reposted the player’s post-match words on his page. “I don’t care if people hate me because it pushes me. I have to see the good side of the haters. I need an enemy. It’s part of the deal. It’s fine with me. It’s motivation,” he wrote in a message on Anthony Starr’s microblog.
Thus, the Portuguese national team won the 1/8 final match of Euro 2024, beating the Slovenian national team in a penalty shootout. Cristiano Ronaldo, who said that this championship would be the last championship of his career, did not allow any football player to reach the standard. But there were such people, but they did not contradict the star. The football player himself did not cope with the task. The situation was corrected by his teammates.
Due to his enviable persistence despite failures, he was compared to the supervillain Homelander from the series “The Boys”. This character dominates his superheroes like a real tyrant. None of the “Seven” even try to resist him. Due to the new circumstances, it is not yet known whether Cristiano Ronaldo will join him in the next season of the series.
