Add BollywoodShaadis on GoogleCristiano Ronaldo recently made the bombshell retirement announcement. He shared that the 2026-2027 football season may be his last year. Now, amid this, netizens dug up Ronaldo's 2026 World Cup video where he looked emotional. Social media users alleged that Ronaldo's facial expressions appeared very tight as he fought back tears.
A report by IBT Times. Co.UK stated that Ronaldo's facial expressions looked very tight when he fought back tears at the FIFA 2026 World Cup. The reaction of the Portugal captain had instantly gone viral, and netizens were shocked by his wrinkle-free look. It is not confirmed whether Ronaldo has undergone Botox treatment to look youthful.
A fan had noted that Ronaldo could not cry due to his Botox treatment. The comment on X read, "He had Botox. He can't even cry properly bc of the Botox properly." A fan defending him wrote, "The hate for Cristiano Ronaldo is becoming too much, and now you guys are taking it personally. I thought we were just catching cruise. Yes, he lost the World Cup, and trolling him is normal, but saying he doesn't even know how to cry properly is going too far."
Netizens felt that Ronaldo's facial expressions were restricted. A user had written, "Let the man cry in peace after 6 World Cups and carrying Portugal for years. Botox or not, those tears are real. After 24 years of professional football, the man has earned the right to cry however he wants. The longevity is what is actually wild."
The report also stated that Ronaldo's face looked smooth, according to his fans, despite his breakdown. There has been a lot of debate on social media related to Ronaldo's appearance, whether it is natural or a result of excellent genetics and also skincare.
During the 2026 FIFA World Cup, Ronaldo looked very emotional as all the cameras focused on him. On the one hand, Ronaldo's Al-Nassr contract runs until June 2027. Now, on the other hand, users questioned Ronaldo's facial movements, which seemed restricted. The footballer has never officially confirmed undergoing any treatment. It is worth mentioning that BollywoodShaadis has not confirmed whether Ronaldo underwent Botox treatment.
Earlier on Reddit, there were discussions around Ronaldo having wrinkles and folds next to his ears. Pictures of the footballer surfaced in which he reportedly had a scar behind his ears. A section of social media users has been convinced that Ronaldo, at 41, has no visible wrinkles and that his face looks unnaturally tight. A comment mentioned:
"I’m 100% sure he’s had Botox and other touch-up procedures, but seeing these specific scars makes me think he’s had more invasive stuff done, like a subtle lower facelift or mini-lift. Those folds don't look like normal ageing; they look like "traction folds" from pulling the skin back tightly to snatch the jawline, and the marks behind the ears are also suspicious."
The publication had earlier confirmed that Ronaldo's wrinkle-free forehead could be due to Botox, which was administered to reduce fine lines and prevent natural movement. Ronaldo's cheekbones that look full are also due to dermal fillers and fat grafting. A user had noticed and mentioned:
"I’ve always thought he has forward neck posture and an insanely big Adam’s apple! Nice to see I’m not the only one who thinks so, ahaha. His shoulders and neck posture are incredibly rounded to me, but for an athlete like Cristiano, I guess it’s just genetics because if it was fixable, he definitely would’ve done something, and it lol."
