People have a picture of Ronaldo that doesn’t reflect reality
– the 33-year-old footballer, who currently has no team and is not a member of the defending ensemble, who is already preparing in Budapest, told the Süddeutsche Zeitung.
If a player is focused and sets goals for himself, that is perfectly normal. I often ask myself how I would behave if I were one of the best in the world and all the pressure was on my shoulders.
Said Éder, who said people need to understand that this is not such an easy task.
The 35-time national team striker believes five-time golden ball Ronaldo has proven to be a very good team player in recent years.
The speech he gave in the locker room after the 2016 final was surprising and outstanding. He said that trophy was the most important of them all, even though by then he had won so much that it would have been difficult to count.
Said Éder.
The Portuguese national team will start at the European Championships against the Hungarians at the Puskás Arena next Tuesday, and four days later it will be the guest of the Germans in Munich, and then on June 23 – also in Budapest – the world champion will meet the French.
