US Footballer Megan Rapinoe Accused of Arrogance During Comparison With Cristiano Ronaldo
Rapinoe picks up the ball and signs it, but she never speaks to or acknowledges the fan in front of her. Instead, she signs it before turning to talk to a passerby in the aisle.
Rapinoe will terminate her career in football after the USWNT’s agonising elimination by Sweden in the last-16 of the Women’s World Cup. In fact, the 38-year-old was one of three American players who missed their spot-kicks in the loss in the penalty shootout, which led to the tournament’s holders’ elimination and a wave of condemnation.

The former UFC Veteran Jake Shields also addressed the topic, by posting it on Twitter, he wrote “ I would be just as disappointed if my son wanted her to sign something”.
As the initial post was made comparing Rapinoe’s arrogance out of fame with Christiano Ronaldo, as the star of football is still humble towards his fans and addresses them.
Rapinoe and the USWNT have had a difficult tournament; on Sunday, they were eliminated from the World Cup after losing 5-4 in a penalty shootout against Sweden in the Round 16 match. This was the team’s earliest elimination from the competition.
Rapinoe failed to convert the fourth penalty kick on Sunday, putting the ball straight into the goal, and Sweden later ruined the USWNT’s bid for a third consecutive victory.
On the Truth Social site, Donald Trump launched into a tirade where he attributed the U.S. defeat to the team’s awakening.
