@rioferdinandpresents: That Ronaldo wink sparks a fiery debate for Rio, Joel and Ste 20 years later! 🦁 Fixing England's midfield 🏆 Rooney/Ronaldo "Wink" ⚪️ Rio's Tchouaméni transfer plea 💎 Why Kobbie Mainoo must start 🎥 Join @rioferdy5, @joelbeya and Stephen Howson for a brand new Rio Presents episode in partnership with Airbnb 🎧 

 As the World Cup group stage nears its conclusion, Rio looks at the players and teams that have impressed him the most whilst analysing England’s midfield and revealing who initiated the first contact between Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney following the famous “wink” incident and Rooney’s red card in the 2006 World Cup Paul Scholes suggestion that Tuchel’s focus on overpowering opposition means the midfield “doesn’t look right” is discussed along with the improvements and changes Rio would make as the tournament progresses. Kobbie Mainoo is spoken about as the type of player that will help England dominate the ball, sustain more attacks and offer a different option for opening up defences Following Jose Mourinho’s comments about the “privilege” of managing the egos in the Real Madrid dressing room and the need for harmony after the problems within the camp last season - Rio makes a plea for Aurélien Tchouaméni to join Manchester United if he’s in a position to leave Real Madrid And when speaking about how Tchouaméni and Federico Valverde could re-integrate together into the Real Madrid squad (following their well-publicised bust up last season) he is reminded of the fallout from the incident where Cristiano Ronaldo winked after his Manchester United team mate Wayne Rooney was sent off in the 2006 World Cup match against Portugal

🕷️🐍 :

Media always want Ronaldo to look bad…

Windmill :

Wait, so that wink wasn’t directed at Rooney at all?

𝟽.𝙸𝚔𝚎𝚛 :

How many people love this man??

Jenal.Z :

the middle guy is portugal player or england player? i never seen him...but talk like he is everywhere

rsj_3 :

The wink came like 5 minutes after the incident and play had already started. It was just a wink to the bench asking if he’s ok

Henry Dumass :

Rio doing the PR Job

lucky_siko4 :

Everyone needs a friend like Rio, full time damage controller

Code :

Rooney did say it's part of the game because they were also trying to get Ronaldo booked for diving. they probably just didn't like each other 🤷

el chico :

one of the most overblown world cup moments

Azor Akai :

They were the best duo ever btw - I often think what would have happened if united respected Rooney and kept Ronaldo. The day Ronaldo left the first time, this team made bad decisions after bad decisions - mistreating their players.

@ MRS ANDERSEN :

Rio the man🥰

proxy :

😭 over a wink

Gerald lunga :

The funniest thing is that the media made it seem like the wink was directed to Rooney.
