“Can’t Go Against Cristiano” – Despite Rated Lower Than Lionel Messi in EAFC 24, Al Nassr’s Cristiano Ronaldo Chosen by Rio Ferdinand

The EAFC 24 was officially released in September. The soccer community’s favorite game, EAFC has got everyone excited from fans to professional players. Videos have been previously posted on social media sites with the players reacting to their new EAFC ratings. Rio Ferdinand was also left astonished as he saw the updated ratings of Lionel Messi and former teammate Cristiano Ronaldo. His reaction to Ronaldo’s rating steals the spotlight.

The new EAFC game is the first one released without the collaboration of soccer’s governing body, FIFA. The video game partnership between the two ended this year after enjoying a run of 30 years. FIFA is also rumored to launch their solo game soon.

Rio Ferdinand makes a major claim about Cristiano Ronaldo

CR7’s spectacular performances during his days at Manchester United took everyone in awe. Alex Ferguson’s side knew they had signed a world-class talent right even before he made it to their first-team squad and the rest is history. Rio recently made a shocking comment about CR7 when being shown the new EAFC ratings.

Rio Ferdinand took a glimpse at the ratings of Messi and Ronaldo for the first time. The difference in rating between the two astonished him. Although choosing Lionel Messi in-game for his rating of 90, the former United player said, “Can’t go against Cristiano though. One game, if I’m getting for one game, a cup final, I’m gonna go for him for sure.”

Cristiano Ronaldo has been given a rating of just 86. CR7’s rating in EA FIFA 23 was 90. The Portuguese no.7’s Saudi move seems to have been the recent behind his lower rating. Messi’s World Cup performance made sure he remains to be at the top.

However, some players have been rated more than CR7 and La Pulga. The new top talents of EAFC are enjoying a spectacular run with their clubs. Two stars among the top-rated are players from the treble-winning Manchester City team – can you guess who they are?

EAFC’s new ratings diminish long-running dominance

EAFC’s latest ratings mark the end of a 16-year reign of dominance, with Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi conspicuously absent from the top positions for the first time in over a decade. The new top spot holders are the upcoming talents everybody is raving about. The strikers from PSG and Manchester City are the new “must-have” players on the team.

Kylian Mbappe, Erling Haaland, Kevin De Bruyne, and Alexia Putellas are the top-rated players in this year’s EAFC 24. The players enjoy an overall rating of 91, marking them to be one point above Lionel Messi. In the previous year, Karim Benzema took the hot spot with an overall rating of 91.
