[Sport] 'F*** it! Welcome 2021' - Ronaldo and Aubameyang lead footballers celebrating New Year's

[The GodFather]

 

 

Though it was a different kind of celebration, several of the game's biggest names posted their well wishes on social media
It wasn't a normal New Year's Eve, but footballers around the world still found a way to ring in 2021.

 

After a year in which the coronavirus pandemic upended the footballing world, several of the game's biggest names expressed their wish that 2021 would be better than the preceding year.

There were no big New Year's parties like usual, but there were still a number of players expressing their well wishes as the calendar turned from December to January. 

Here is a look at how the footballing world rang in 2021:

2020 was not an easy year, there’s no doubt about it. No one can be indifferent to the pain and suffering that COVID-19 brought upon the world.
But now it’s time to bounce back and show that, together, we can make a difference.
