It hasn't even been a few months since Cristiano Ronaldo had his famous spat with Manchester United. The club and star split up after numerous statements and accusations. Piers Morgan's interview has very fiery statements of the Portuguese star.
He clarified his belief that they did not respect him at the club Manchester United. The relationship was not very good, but this interview was the last straw. They parted and Cristiano Ronaldo started a new adventure.
He went to Saudi Arabia to play for Al-Nassr and at the same time is richer than 200 million USD a year. It was not a solid start but now he is breaking tournament records. Ronaldo proves his worth as he continues to single-handedly win Al-Nassr's matches.
Ronaldo breaks the huge record of the Saudi Pro League
Yesterday, Al-Nassr faced Damac and the ground quickly turned into a slaughterhouse. In the 18th minute, Cristiano Ronaldo was awarded a penalty and without making a mistake, he converted it into a goal. Two goals in the 23rd and 44th minutes meant that the first half was a Ronaldo performance and Al-Nassr took the lead by much.
This miraculous dynamic performance has catapulted Cristiano Ronaldo to the new heights of the Saudi Pro League. His first-half hat-trick was the only goal scored in the first 45 minutes of the game. It was a sight to behold, it took just two games for the Portuguese star to turn his doubts into fans. Since he left Manchester United, many fans and football pundits have blamed him for the worst crisis of his career. Looks like he's out of this phase and will continue to lead the league. The performance will also affect the league's plans to expand offers for international stars to play in Saudi Arabia.
Garth Crooks beat Cristiano Ronaldo
In a BBC Sport segment called Garth Crooks' Team of the Week, Crooks hit out at the former Manchester United striker. Gareth has written at length about how Cristiano Ronaldo has influenced the way he plays at the club. He wrote: “The England striker no longer has to play second-hand to a player desperately clinging to former glories who care more about themselves than the team. The problem was solved and United became a real team again.
The same question, but on a minimal scale, was discussed by Al-Nassr coach Rudi Garcia. He says he advises his players not to be obsessed with switching to Ronaldo. It looks like the team is working really well around him and making him the focal point of their attack. What is your opinion on the current discussion? Tell us in the comments.
