Currently, the end of two great playings is fast approaching. People argue that Ronaldo has the physic and build to keep on playing till 40 but he doesn't look like a player who will continue playing if he feels that he is not delivering to the best of his ability. he said that on numerous occasions even on its birthday, he said he will continue giving his 100% whenever he plays and if he doesn't do that he will leave the sport.
Well, that promise might have to take place in a year or two has his advancement in age is beginning to slow him down. Ronaldo who was once a pacy winger with blistering speed as become a target man and that shows how far he has declined but never the less he remains the best player to me.
During his side encounter with Porto yesterday, he didn't score as always but he contributed his little quota to the victory. he assisted the first goal and didn't make any contribution after that. Juventus will go on and win the match but still fall short of advancing to the next round.
Match ended 3-2 in Juventus favour but the away goals rule meant that Juventus are out as Porto scored two at the old ladies stadium. A lot has been said before the match about Ronaldo being a burden to the Juventus team and after the loss, they have a reason to start believing the lies.
Ronaldo lost the bragging right this time around as he couldn't shut his haters up on the field of p; lay but of course, he will get more chances of doing that. he failed to score in the knockout stage of the champions league for the first time in his career and that must really hurt Mr Champions league.
Messi might probably join him soon on the sideline as they have a bigger task to fulfil if they are to advance to the next round. it is not impossible but it will be very difficult to achieve. PSG already as the advantage having beaten Barca 4-1 in their own stadium and in front of their fans.
People will always talk against the best players and Messi will be singled out for jabs if Barca losses. that doesn't take away his contribution to the beautiful game of football just as Ronaldo legendary status remains intact despite crashing out of the champions league.
