'He's fuming!': Darren Bent claims there is 'NO WAY' Cristiano Ronaldo watched Argentina's World Cup final victory as the former England striker insists it 'would bother him' to see his great rival Lionel Messi triumph

Darren Bent believes that there is 'no way' that Cristiano Ronaldo will have been watching the World Cup final on Sunday, given his notorious rivalry with triumphant Argentina captain Lionel Messi.

The Portuguese forward - who may have at last found himself a new club in the shape of Saudi Arabian side Al Nassr - has shared one of sport's greatest rivalries as one part of a duopoly of dominance alongside Messi.

Messi and the Albiceleste squad returned to Buenos Aires where they were beset upon by thousands of jubilant fans during an open-top bus parade that took them through the capital city and past the iconic Obelisk monument.
