Georgina Rodriguez sides with Brazil over Argentina before Copa America 2024

As the countdown to Copa America 2024 dwindles to mere hours, anticipation is soaring. Argentina, the defending champions, are set to launch their campaign against Canada at the prestigious tournament's opening game.

Fans are buzzing with excitement, ready to support Lionel Messi and his teammates at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in hopes of another triumphant run.

However, an unexpected twist in the narrative comes from Cristiano Ronaldo’s girlfriend, Georgina Rodriguez.

Rodriguez, an Argentine model, stirred the pot with a throwback Instagram post, where she is pictured wearing a "Brazilian girl" t-shirt while dining.

This revelation might ruffle some feathers among the Albiceleste fans, who are already fervent in their support, despite the geographical distance from their home turf.

Though the Instagram post is not recent, the timing of its circulation could have an unsettling effect.

"The Argentine influencer is just wearing a top with Brazil’s flag rather than donning the rival’s kit,"

Georgina's camp might argue in her defense. Known primarily for her staunch support of Ronaldo and Portugal, Rodriguez has notably never vocally supported her native Argentina, choosing instead to cheer for Ronaldo at numerous games.

Meanwhile, Cristiano Ronaldo is focused on the ongoing Euro 2024, possibly his final major tournament with Portugal.

At 39, the legendary forward is chasing what might be his last opportunity to claim European glory—a feat he hasn’t achieved since 2016.

Portugal's campaign kicked off with a thrilling last-minute victory over Czechia, with young Francisco Conceicao clinching the win.

Next up, Portugal faces Turkey, and a victory would seal their advancement to the knockout stages.

Ronaldo’s quest for one last trophy adds a layer of drama to an already emotionally charged tournament season.
