Andy Murray and Piers Morgan
The back-and-forth pointing and hitting towards each other seems to be a routine between Piers Morgan and Andy Murray. This time it’s Piers Morgan who takes the first step in reaching out to Andy Murray via his Twitter handle when he tagged the Tennis great after Argentina’s Lionel Messi‘s penalty was denied by the Polish goalkeeper, sending them on a back foot while charging for goals. However, Argentina revived itself from the shock with a comfortable win over Poland(2-0) in the 2022 FIFA World Cup Group stage.
Earlier in this event, the Tennis star Andy Murray poked the English journalist after Cristiano Ronaldo failed to contact AndyAndy Murray poked the English journalist after Cristiano Ronaldo was unable to make contact with the ball that went inside the net. Piers Morgan replied to the shot; he wrote, “Oops” above the Argentine’s devastating photo after missing the penalty. Argentina was all set to defeat the Polish and in-form Robert Lewandowski as the hunger for scoring was visible right from the first whistle; indeed, the missed penalty was a dent in the team’s thunderous performance.
The English broadcaster has a history of criticizing the Argentine superstar and supporting his favorite CR7. He has believed all his life that Diego Maradona is the greatest player to come out of Argentina. Lionel Messi took over the team much later and unfortunately couldn’t take his country to the heights that the country witnessed while the great Maradona was still playing.
However, both the greats have carried their countries on their shoulders. Can they redeem themselves by making their last campaign their best, by lifting the trophy for their nation? It’s doubtful that only one of them achieves that, but it is possible for the Argentines who stood favorites to win the cup before the start of the big event. The Journalist and Andy can continue to fight over the GOAT debate, but it will not even settle with a golden trophy in Messi’s cabinet.
Piers Morgan and Andy Murray’s shuttlewise banter
The Portuguese maestro Cristiano Ronaldo has started his 2022 World Cup campaign, also his last, with a win to Ghana and then Uruguay. The team keeps their world cup dream alive; afterward, Piers Morgan got tweeted by the tennis legend Andy Murray knowing that the Englishman is a fan of Cristiano Ronaldo. He took a jibe at him, saying, “I think Bruno Fernandes is the Twitter handle you were looking for.” after the Portuguese scored.
Piers Morgan tweeted earlier, “boom” celebrating the maestro’s goal that was later reversed and given to Bruno Fernandes as the player didn’t touch the ball. Piers has been a constant supporter of the Portuguese great and has tweeted many times showing love and respect, this time the tweet was timed a little early before the decision was reversed. Andy Murray leaves no stage to poke Piers for his extraordinary admiration towards the Portuguese legend.
