When Ronaldo Reportedly Banned His Girlfriend From Hosting Parties for mistake involving Barceloan and Messi

The ongoing competition between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi is a remarkable tale in contemporary sports. For almost 15 years, they have spurred each other on, while no other athlete has come close to matching their achievements.

Together, they have amassed an impressive total of 12 Ballon d'Or awards, and with both players approaching the twilight of their careers, there is a chance they could add one more to their tally this year.

There have been no reports of animosity between the two off the field, and despite their rivalry on the field, they hold each other in high regard.

Following an incident involving Lionel Messi and Barcelona in 2017, the Argentine model was banned from hosting parties by the five-time Ballon d'Or winner.

The incident occurred when both players were at the height of their powers, but it was Messi who emerged victorious with a late stoppage-time goal. The match is often remembered for Messi's celebration, in which he removed his shirt and held it up to the Bernabeu crowd.

 After the match, Ronaldo returned home and cancelled a party that his girlfriend Georgina Rodriguez had planned at their Madrid residence. Despite Rodriguez's intention to host the party immediately after the game, the Portuguese icon forbade it from taking place.

According to reports, Ronaldo went as far as prohibiting Rodriguez from organizing any future parties after significant matches. The defeat clearly struck a nerve with the former Real Madrid striker.
