A viral screenshot circulates online claiming Cristiano Ronaldo liked an Instagram post alleging FIFA favours Argentina. The posts prompted debate among social media users, with some interpreting Ronaldo’s “like” as an endorsement of the accusation.

In a fact-check, NDTV reports that it could not find evidence to substantiate the claim. According to the outlet, there is no verifiable support that Ronaldo actually liked the specific anti-Argentina post shown in the screenshot. The report points to the lack of reliable confirmation that the interaction occurred, despite the screenshot being used as purported proof.

The claim, as presented by viral accounts, centers on a supposed account action rather than a direct statement by Ronaldo. With no corroborating evidence identified in the fact-check, the alleged “like” remains unverified. The incident highlights how social media screenshots can spread assertions without clear, confirmable sources.
