The illusion lasted one click
Just when the name of Cristiano Ronaldo was ringing again in Mexico after missing the friendly due to injury, Chivas turned on the nets. The red and white team, leader of Clausura 2026, published an image where the star was wearing his shirt.
The photo exploded in seconds. Surprise, expectation and thousands of reactions flooded the platforms. Really? CR7 in Guadalajara? For a moment, the idea seemed possible.
The postcard, which quickly went viral, generated surprise, expectation and a wave of reactions among fans.
The reality after the assembly
But here’s the detail: it was a photomontage. Pure dynamics of #AprilFools, the day of jokes. Chivas played with the enthusiasm of its fans and the passion that a figure like Ronaldo generates.
The reaction was mixed. Many followers of the Flock took it with humor. They enjoyed the fantasy, even if it was fleeting. Seeing a world legend wearing your team’s colors, even in jest, always sparks something.
Now, with the focus back on the field, Chivas prepares to face Pumas after the FIFA break. The enthusiasm for Ronaldo fades, but the season continues. Sometimes, football is also played on the networks.
