‘Drink water’: Ronaldo’s gesture a snub to Euros sponsor Coca-Cola

The Portugal captain Cristiano Ronaldo conspicuously shifted bottles of Coca-Cola away from him during a press conference at the Euro 2020 football championship in Budapest on Monday 14 June. Ronaldo followed this by holding up a bottle of water before declaring in Portuguese: 'Agua!', appearing to encourage people to choose water instead. In a statement, a spokesperson for the Euros said 'everyone is entitled to their drink preferences' based on different 'tastes and needs'.

He is a top professional athlete because he has made some tough choices about his health. The best way to influence other people is to set an example.

Time for sports to be more sport and less business.

[Magonal]

He is so fit that he doesn't even drink that.
