Cristiano Ronaldo is singled out after Juventus’ defeat against FC Porto on Wednesday, February 17. His relationship with Andrea Pirlo is criticized.
Former striker Antonio Cassano strongly attacked Cristiano Ronaldo after the defeat of Juventus against FC Porto (2-1), yesterday, in the round of 16 first leg of the Champions League. He claims his profile is incompatible with his trainer Andrea Pirlo.
“I’ve always said, given that he’s a phenomenon and has scored a billion goals, that it might be difficult with Andrea Pirlo’s idea of football. He scores one goal per game, it’s true, but he’s struggling with Andrea’s ideas. He’s always been a bit selfish, he doesn’t care that others score goals, he’s the kind of player who lives to score, “said Cassano.
While Andrea Pirlo lives her first season on the bench of Juventus, the club is content with a 4th place in the Serie A standings after 22 contested days. CR7 is one of the rare satisfactions of this season with his 23 goals in all competitions in 27 games played.
“The years go by for everyone and he has difficulties. Juventus are trying to change their minds and play a different kind of football, because of Ronaldo’s qualities. He doesn’t live for the game, the big game, he lives for the goal, and right now the situation is getting worse, “he concludes.
