Real madrid star player Cristiano Ronaldo to renew
his scintillating duel with Lionel
Messi in the Spanish league.
Ronaldo ended a rare three-game slump without a goal to
help Real Madrid win 2-0 at Schalke in the Champions
League.
“It is clear that Cristiano Ronaldo lives to score goals,”
Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti said. “It’s never a problem for
us when he doesn’t score for a couple of games.
But he, of course, minds. I believe we are back on the right
track.”
Madrid leads Barcelona by one point in the league before
visiting a modest Elche side on Sunday.
Barcelona hosts Malaga on Saturday, three days before it
travels to play Manchester City in the Champions League.
Not so long ago Ronaldo was running away with the
Spanish league’s individual scoring title for the season.
Through 15 matches, Ronaldo had already tallied the
impressive haul of 25 goals, while Messi – his closest
chaser – was far behind with 13.
Since then, Messi has exploded and Ronaldo has struggled
to keep up. Ronaldo still leads with 28 goals, but Messi has
closed the gap and has 26.
Counting all competitions, the two are fittingly locked on 37
goals in 34 appearances each.
Barcelona has made a remarkable turnaround for a team
that seemed to be on the brink in early January following a
loss at Real Sociedad that was quickly followed by the
firing of its sports director, a call for early club elections
and reports that coach Luis Enrique’s job was at risk.
“Since (Real Sociedad) the team has changed its attitude,”
Messi said. “We give more effort and go out onto the pitch
in a different manner. Now we pressure to recover the ball
like we didn’t do before.
“We are playing very, very well. But we know that we still
haven’t won anything yet and that these are the important
months.”
