A Nigerian rapper has sparked controversy by harshly criticising Kylian Mbappé’s mentor, Cristiano Ronaldo, with an inflammatory remark during the Euro 2024 game against France.

Prominent Nigerian rapper Odumodublvck has caused a stir with his scathing criticism of football superstar Cristiano Ronaldo during the high-stakes Euro 2024 quarterfinal clash between France and Portugal.

The incendiary remarks from Odumodublvck came as the world watched the dramatic penalty shootout that saw the reigning world champions France edge out Ronaldo's Portugal in a nail-biting encounter on Friday night.

This was God's chance to show y'all who the liar is. Kylian, they said you want to punish (Lionel) Messi, you can't. But you will punish your idol."

The rapper's words were as cutting as they were controversial, as he seemingly revelled in Ronaldo's elimination from the tournament, which marked the end of the Al Nassr star's Euro journey without a single goal to his name.

The rapper's outburst caused quite a stir as fans debated the merits of his scathing criticism.
