This Benevento defender is really disappointed that he failed to fight Ronaldo

Jakarta

Juventus appear without Cristiano Ronaldo when offset by Benevento. Kamil Glik admitted that he was disappointed that he could not face the 35-year-old striker.

Juventus had to settle for going home with one point after a 1-1 draw with Benevento in the Italian League continued at the Ciro Vigorito Stadium, Sunday (29/11/2020) early morning WIB. The Bianconeri took the lead through Alvaro Morata, but the home team was matched by Gaetano Letizia’s goal just before halftime.

Juventus coach, Andrea Pirlo, decided not to bring Ronaldo for this match. The Portuguese striker is considered to be in a state of exhaustion.

Glik as Benevento’s defender was disappointed that he could not face Ronaldo. The man from Poland admitted that he really wanted to challenge himself to face one of the best strikers in the world.

According to data from Transfermark, Glik has only faced Ronaldo once. It happened when the Polish national team met Portugal in the 2016 European Cup.

“I am actually disappointed that Ronaldo did not play, because I like to challenge myself against the most important player in the world. I know him well, we both like challenges,” said Glik after the match, quoted by Football Italia.

Juventus is not a foreign club for Glik. He spent five years playing for Torino, which is the eternal rival of the Old Lady in the city of Turin.

“I would be lying if I said this was not an important game for me, because I spent five wonderful years at Torino. It meant a lot to me, it’s in my heart, but I am playing for Benevento now and the most important motivation is to get the points,” he stressed.
