The captain of the Portuguese national team, Cristiano Ronaldo, faced the media in a press conference, where he had no problem admitting that no one played well
“There are games like that, there are bad days. I didn’t play at all, the team didn’t play at all, but it’s part of life. Tomorrow I want to leave the Estadio Alvalade with my head held high. If all the Portuguese are on our side,” said CR7
By the way, ‘El Bicho’ has noticed a toxic environment surrounding Portugal, so he had to put a stop to it with some forceful words.
“I feel that there is a lot of negativity surrounding the national team,” Ronaldo replied. “I have seen some press conferences in recent days and I did not like what I saw, I do not like it.”
And honestly, some of the questions you asked me were just disrespectful. If you want answers from me, look me in the eye when you ask them. There’s no point in asking me something and then looking at the computer. You’ll have time for that later. If necessary, I’ll tell you ten times
Cristiano Ronaldo also admitted that there is a tense atmosphere, but that it is part of the game. Portugal will face Denmark in a few hours and will do everything in their power to take the victory that will give them the ticket to the Final Four of the UEFA Nations League
