Following Portugal’s victory against Uzbekistan, Cristiano Ronaldo faced unexpected requests from journalists during a press conference. The journalists, who work for LiveMode – a streaming channel in which Ronaldo is a shareholder – used the opportunity to personally appeal to him. They jokingly requested a salary increase and asked to borrow one of his cars. The exchange occurred after Ronaldo addressed standard post-match questions. LiveMode confirmed the incident, noting the lighthearted nature of the requests from its team members. Ronaldo did not publicly respond to the requests, but the interaction has garnered attention within sports media. The incident highlights Ronaldo’s dual role as both a football star and a business investor.
