Cristiano Ronaldo’s removal of two Coca-Cola bottles during a press conference at the European Championship has coincided with a $4bn fall in the share price of the drinks company.
It seems the woke commies can’t catch a break over at Coca-Cola.
As we all know, this woke company decided to go all “political” and butt into US elections and they’re getting heat from Americans facing tremendous backlash for that move.
But it was a Portuguese soccer star who just cost Coke $4 billion dollars when he pushed away two bottles of the sugary soft drink and told people to drink water instead. Hahaha….good healthy advice!
The Portugal captain is a renowned health fanatic and made it clear what he thinks of the carbonated soft drink. The 36-year-old shifted the bottles of Coca-Cola away from him during a press conference in Budapest on Monday in the prelude to his country’s Group F game against Hungary.
According to USA Today reports:
Cristiano Ronaldo’s gesture for people to drink water instead of Coke at a Euro 2020 press conference may have cost the soda company $4 billion in market value.
Coca-Cola shares dropped from $56.17 to $55.22 after Ronaldo moved two Coke bottles out of view and picked up a bottle of water before Portugal’s match against Hungary on Monday.
Market value for the company dropped from $242 billion to $238 billion – a $4 billion plunge.
“Agua!” the soccer superstar exclaimed. Agua means water in Portuguese.

Obviously, Rolando’s gesture was not political – it was likely more “health-related.”
Either way, he’s right…Shove that woke poison out of your life.
