Cristiano Ronaldo Switches Mercurial Boots at Halftime Against Colombia
Cristiano Ronaldo debuted a special pair of custom Nike Mercurial Superfly 11 'Gold Scorpion' football boots during Portugal's 2026 World Cup match against Colombia. The exclusive design was created as a tribute to his historic achievement of scoring in six different FIFA World Cup tournaments, a record-breaking milestone in international football.
Despite the pre-match hype surrounding the limited-edition tribute boots, Ronaldo only wore the 'Gold Scorpion' edition for the opening 45 minutes of the game. Following the halftime break, he was seen switching back to the standard 'Breakout' colorway of the Nike Mercurial Superfly 11, likely opting for the familiar comfort of his regular match boots.
