In a truly unexpected turn of events at the 2026 World Cup Final, football icons Ronaldo and Ronaldinho took on the role of chauffeurs for pop superstar Madonna. The Brazilian legends escorted Madonna onto the pitch at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey as part of the highly anticipated halftime show.

Madonna arrived in a buggy, driven by former Inter Milan striker Ronaldo, with ex-AC Milan player Ronaldinho by his side. This unique entrance kicked off the halftime entertainment.

Ronaldinho recently made headlines with a surprising return to professional football at the age of 46, signing for Serie C team Ravenna.

Following their appearance, Ronaldo and Ronaldinho stood alongside other performers, who included a star-studded lineup of Justin Bieber, BTS, Shakira, and The Muppets.

The introduction of a halftime show for the World Cup Final marks a new initiative by FIFA President Gianni Infantino, drawing inspiration from the American Super Bowl tradition, where such performances sometimes rival the sporting event itself.

At the break, the 2026 World Cup Final between Spain and Argentina was deadlocked at 0-0. The extended halftime break lasted a record-breaking 27 minutes.
