Alcaraz, on loan from Flamengo, returned to England this winter. His goal in the important win over Palace was a highlight at Goodison Park. He praised Ronaldo instead of Messi, whom he admired. Alcaraz chose Ronaldo’s celebration—why? The Messi vs. Ronaldo argument is usually cordial, but many see it as a ‘one or the other’ issue.
Alcaraz disagreed, explaining his decision and explanation.
“I always liked Cristiano despite being Argentinian,” he remarked. Not surprisingly, Messi is the best player in the world. That’s certain. Cristiano has always impressed me with his consistency, dedication, and hard work.”
He also noted how Ronaldo has changed his style to stay on top. He has modified his game to play at the greatest level, which is amazing.
My admiration for him prompted that celebration, Alcaraz said. Prior to his strike against Palace, Alcaraz featured in a thrilling Merseyside derby against Liverpool. Many issues and post-match red cards led to a 2-2 tie. After the game, he called it “a crazy match.”
“I loved it. It was great to play my first derby in this shirt, he stated.
Alcaraz may receive another big chance against Manchester United for Everton. All eyes will be on Alcaraz to deliver another remarkable performance under new Toffees manager David Moyes.
