Despite his remarkable achievements in Europe's premier club competition, Ronaldo's fortunes at the FIFA World Cup have followed a different path.

Over the course of five different editions of the tournament with Portugal, he has yet to secure a World Cup success, unlike Messi, who recently won the Mundial with Argentina.

His most notable performance came in his inaugural World Cup appearance in 2006 when the Portuguese national team reached the semi-finals, ultimately falling to France.

During his lie detector test with Binance, a compelling question was posed to Ronaldo: Would he be willing to exchange all five of his cherished Champions League medals for a solitary World Cup trophy?

After a moment of contemplation, Ronaldo delivered a resolute and definitive response:

"No," he replied, as quoted by TCR, with the machine detecting his response as sincere and truthful.
