When the Real Madrid midfielder talked to the Brazil great, he had just helped his team beat Switzerland on Monday night.
Rodrygo didn’t start the game, but he did help Brazil finally get past the strong defense of the other team.
The 21-year-old setup Casemiro of Manchester United to score the game’s only goal, which sent Brazil to the round of 16 at the World Cup.
However, people now think that he will get hurt because he rubbed Ronaldo’s legs good luck.
People think the 46-year-old is one of the best players of all time, but he was hurt a lot during his career.
“Yeah… he’s getting hurt,” said one.
“He is also touching knee injuries,” said someone else.
A third person said: “I hope he doesn’t transfer the career-ending injuries along with the special powers.”
“Does he realise he will pick up his injury problems as well?” asked a fourth.
When Neymar got hurt in Brazil’s first game, Ronaldo asked him in the interview if he was ready to take his place.
The PSG star hurt his ankle and won’t be able to play for the rest of the group stage. It’s still not clear if he will be back for the knockout games.
Ronaldo wished Rodrygo luck in the rest of the game when the conversation was over.
He told her, “Go for it, good luck!” Everyone in Brazil wants you to win. Thank you!
Rodrygo and Brazil still have one more game in their group. If they can at least tie Cameroon, they will be in first place.
They will play the second-placed team from Group H if they don’t lose.
But if they lost to the African team, they might have a tough match against Cristiano Ronaldo’s Portugal team.
