The influential Mexican newspaper "El Heraldo de Mexico" has made a serious professional error, a rare occurrence in the world sports media that has caused great outrage.
Idman.Biz reports that the publication claimed in a news story about Cristiano Ronaldo's injury that the head coach of the Portuguese national team, Roberto Martinez, was considering "re-calling Diogo Jota to the squad" to strengthen the attacking line.
The dissemination of this information caused a shock effect in both the Portuguese and world football community.
The scandalous aspect of the matter is that Diogo Jota, the former star of Liverpool and the Portuguese national team, is no longer alive. It is recalled that the 28-year-old footballer tragically died on July 3, 2025, in the Spanish province of Zamora in a serious car accident with his brother Andre Silva. The presentation of Jota as a "living player" by the Mexican journalists, who were unaware of this event that plunged the entire football world into mourning a year ago, is considered a gross violation of ethical norms.
The other part of the newspaper's news - that Cristiano Ronaldo is injured - is true. The Al-Nassr striker suffered a thigh injury at the end of February in the match against Al-Fayha. For this reason, his participation in the friendly match against the Mexican national team in Mexico City on March 28 is in question. Even due to the possibility of Ronaldo's absence, a sharp drop in ticket prices for the match is observed.
