Cristiano Ronaldo’s sister has given a fitting reply to Virgil Van Dijk

Liverpool defender Virgil Van Dijk said some insulting comments about Cristiano Ronaldo during the Ballon d’Or gala.

Cristiano Ronaldo avoided the Ballon d’Or gala in Paris on Monday where Lionel Messi won a record 6th time Ballon d’Or. He instead attended the annual Gran Gala del Calcio in Milan where he received the award for the best player in Serie A for the last season.

France Football declared that Lionel Messi’s record 6th Ballon d’Or is one of the narrowest wins in the 63-year history of the prestigious prize. He has beaten Liverpool defender Virgil Van Dijk by just 7 points.

Ballon d’Or 2019 runner-up Van Dijk praised Messi’s “unnatural” ability and said he had complete respect for the 32-year-old. But when asked about five-time winner Ronaldo’s absence, he joked: “Was he a candidate?”

Cristiano Ronaldo’s sister, singer Katia Aveiro, failed to see the funny side of the light-hearted comment. She gave a fitting reply back to the Dutchman in a lengthy Instagram post.

She wrote: “Now, dear Virgil, where you are going, Cristiano Ronaldo has gone and has come a thousand times.

“You see, my dear Virgil, that Cristiano Ronaldo was a three-time champion in the country where you have been playing for years and you still haven’t got your hand on the trophy.

“Cristiano Ronaldo was even the best player and best scorer in the country where you play Virgil. By the way, he was even younger than you. Then, dear Virgil, Cristiano Ronaldo went to other places and became the greatest player in the history of a club… this club, with this Cristiano guy, even beat you in the Champions League final.

“Of these [Ballons d’Or], Ronaldo already has five, Virgil.”

Virgil Van Dijk should really need to learn how to respect the legends of this beautiful game of football. Ronaldo has given us numerous moments of pure joy and still continues to entertain us in ways that others can’t. He has also beaten Van Dijk’s Netherlands in the first-ever Nations League final.

They may be rivals on the pitch but it is all about respect off the field, which Van Dijk is lacking in great amount.
