The message came after Ronaldo left the national team camp, amid the tension that followed the match against Norway in the UEFA Nations League for the 2026-2027 season.
Elma Aveiro posted a message on her Instagram story stating that Ronaldo deserved more respect, and that the Portuguese national team needed more organization.
The message was not limited to defending the Portuguese star, but also criticized the local media coverage, considering that it needs more efficiency and less speculation.
It also included harsh remarks towards the Portuguese people, saying: "They do not deserve to be the best in any field, because they are envious and lack respect and awareness."J
The message added: "We deserve to return to the level of humility that we have always known in football, before Ronaldo came along."
Finally, the message posted by Elma Aveiro, sister of Portuguese legend Cristiano Ronaldo, contained words of thanks to the Al-Nassr Saudi striker, which read: "Thank you for everything, Ronaldo. You deserved the best."
The controversy began after the Portugal-Norway match, during which Ronaldo remained on the bench for the entire game.
His exclusion raised questions, especially after previous statements by Jesus indicated the possibility of bringing him on during the second half if he did not start the match, but the coach did not include him, explaining that his decisions are subject to the course of the match and his technical choices.
Speculation mounted about a disagreement between the two sides, before Jesus confirmed that he had the final say regarding the lineup and style of play, and that he would not change his plans in response to pressure from any player or official.
Amid these developments, Ronaldo left the national team camp heading to Madrid, announcing that he would reveal the truth about what happened and the reasons that led him to make his decision at the appropriate time.
