Cristiano Ronaldo congratulated Team Falcons on winning the Esports World Cup 2024 on his official social media channels.

A few pictures from the Esports World Cup 2024 ceremony were posted by CR7. A major Esports competition was held in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. As a player for Al-Nassr in the Saudi Pro League, Ronaldo presently resides in Saudi Arabia. At the Esports World Cup 2024 presentation event, CR7 was in attendance and looked amazing in traditional Saudi Arabian clothing.

At the concluding ceremony, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman gave Saudi Arabia's "Team Falcons" the title of victors. After earning $5 million in prize money from 12 tournaments, the squad totaled 5,665 points. The Dutch team Liquid, which placed second with 2,545 points, and the Swiss team BDS, which placed third with 2,000 points, were the two teams that the Falcons defeated. The Falcons had notable wins in "Free Fire" and "Call of Duty: Warzone," finishing first in both competitions.

Over two million people visited Riyadh for the Esports World Cup, which resulted in a 29% increase in tourism over the previous year. With 32 entertainment and cultural events, the event attracted over 500 million people and over 250 million hours of viewing time, setting a new record for the year for global viewership. The Esports World Cup's success serves as a testament to the gaming industry's explosive growth, which will see its value surpass $200 billion worldwide in 2023. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is becoming more and more of a prominent player in international events, such as the future Olympic Esports Games in 2025, thanks to its successful hosting of the event.
