Former Czechian Digs At Cristiano Ronaldo: Cristiano Ronaldo is 39 and will probably be playing his final Euro in Germany. The Portuguese legend will face Czechia today in his inaugural match at the European Championship. Ahead of the match, former Czechian payer Karel Poborsky sent a dig at the greatest.
Former Czechian Digs At Cristiano Ronaldo
Speaking to CTK, Poborsky brought in CR7’s age. Poborsky, who also capped for Manchester United, said that Ronaldo playing against his side will benefit them as the age has caught the superstar.
“I have been saying for a long time that in that Ronaldo will be one of their weakest links. The fans of both teams will go crazy for him, but at his age, he is not as good at building the game and pressing as his younger teammates. So our team would rather him start. Hats off to him for what he has achieved – thanks to his enormous self-confidence. But you can’t stop age, he is 39. We don’t know how he is with coach Roberto Martinez, but it was written about before that his predecessor Fernando Santos already encountered a problem at the World Cup in Qatar.”
It isn’t the first time Cristiano Ronaldo’s age has been brought into discussion. And every time people criticize Ronaldo, the legend gives mouth-shutting replies on the pitch. The Al-Nassr player has scored 50 goals for the club in the 2023–24 season to finish as the top scorer worldwide. He also scored an incredible brace against Ireland last week to proclaim that age is just a number for him. Will he rise again tonight? We will wait and see.
Czechian Defender David Zima picks Cristiano Ronaldo Over Lionel Messi to Be the Greatest
Czechian defender David Zima picked Cristiano Ronaldo to be the greatest player in the world. The 23-year-old thinks the Portuguese is still the best in the world at his age of 39. Zima was talking ahead of him facing the GOAT in Euro 2024.
“Cristiano Ronaldo is the best player in the world, and he still is today.”
Though Zima sees Ronaldo as the greatest, he would love to beat the legend in the upcoming match-up.
“We believe in ourselves. We really want to win the match, although a draw would also be a good result.”
