Spoken like someone that has never been a victim of western racism. Do you think blacks in these western countries aren't scientifically developed? Even as Chinese and Asians are preyed on by white supremacist. They don't get as bad as the treatment blacks endure. This is because they feel we are less than not because of our technology or scientific advances. But because they still feel its their right to own and lord over blacks.

Lets move on. SMH. How do you move on when you are constantly being reminded how inferior you are. You walk into a restaurant, they refuse to serve you not because you don't have the money but because of the colour of your skin. In football, you are playing your own game and an opponent walks uo to you and start saying dehumanising words to you. Or is it the fans who chants racial chants and throw banana at you? Let's no go into police brutality. Tell me how do you move on with all these.

Moving on and staying quiet has never worked. Do you think if we have a wankanda like country, all these racist stuff will end? Don't deceive yourself. The problem is how people have been brought up to look down on others who aren't like them. Chinese, other Asians, Latinos, native indians in US are all still experiencing racism till today despite the technological advances of their home countries.

Stop giving excuses for such demeaning behaviour. There is no excuse for it! Even here in Nigeria we have our own form of racism. We hate on China and their technological products, calling them chinko. This is despite how advanced China has become. So my brother, racism doesn't go away because you have developed your country.

Do you know that Hitler and the Japanese were racist? The felt they were the master race and everyone else was below them. This is why they wanted to conquer the world. Now tell me, did all those countries they attacked, which they considered less than them. Weren't they developed? Food for thought
Best comment especially with the China example.
Nice one

Sarri does not seem clueless, he is.
Have you watched Juve this season?
I've watched 70% of their games this season and its boring as hell. The only thing that keeps me glued is the fact Ronaldo might score


How many trophies does Sarri have? What did he achieve in Napoli? in Chelsea? (Europa)
What has he achieved in Serie A? Juve might not even win the league if they don't step up
lolz...i still insist technically he is better than zidane...forget that all stars in madrid, place zidane incharge of this juve he would still struggle...juve problem is not all abt sarri, its about theit structure of making signings, they keep signing players they dnt need jus to frustrate the other italain teams and thats why allegri cudnt compete in europe and was sacked after getting tired of winning league...let me ask you, whats the correlation between cr7, higuain, dybala and guardado?? these players do play totally different pattern from each other..cr7 loves to play as a lone striker and its same with huguain and dybala loves to play with another striker...i dnt see the need of bringing higuain to juve wen they av ronaldo but jus wan to kill milan dt needs him. .juve problem is more than sarri and he is nt incharge of transfers...pls sarri is a good coach, google and check what he did with small napoli and dt flop higuain n u wud b impressed..

Hmm, this isn't fair though. After years and years of excellence. People see a few poor showings and start laughing. Seriously?
Unfortunately he spends more time now on social media than on his career. That is what we are saying; let him concentrate or we see him retire next season to avoid being avoided by big clubs signing him after Juventus contrast expires.

Of course Ronaldo is the most selfish footballer ever. He doesn't contribute to team play, always waiting for tap-in and penalty, let's not forget that he blames his teammates when things go bad.

The only reason he keeps jumping from one club to another is because of his selfish aims,he wants to prove that he can do it all without his teammates which is no true.
How many penalties has Ronaldo scored in his career... Then compare it to his career goals den you'd find out dat ur statement is baseless....

Luca Toni Slams Cristiano Ronaldo After Coppa Italia Final Defeat
Former Italy striker Luca Toni has slammed the performance of Cristiano Ronaldo following Juventus Coppa Italia Final defeat to Napoli last night.

Juventus lost 4-2 on penalties, thereby handing Gennaro Gattuso’s side their first trophy since 2014.

Ronaldo struggled to get involved in the game, and was lacking in sharpness after the extended break, and Luca Toni did not hold back in his assessment of the Portuguese forward.

Cristiano Ronaldo has received a whole lot of criticism after he didn't step up to take a penalty in the Coppa Italia final shoot-out defeat to Napoli.

Despite seeing a spot-kick saved in his return to action in the semi-final against AC Milan, Ronaldo is comfortably Juventus' best penalty taker and is normally immune to pressure in the big moments.

But the five-time Ballon d'Or winner didn't even get to take one last night.

Both Paulo Dybala and Danilo missed from 12 yards while Napoli scored all four through Lorenzo Insigne, Matteo Politano, Nikola Maksimovic and Arkadiusz Milik - the latter putting away the winner to secure Gennaro Gattuso's first trophy.
And many believe Ronaldo didn't take a penalty because he wanted to be fifth on the list and ultimately the hero - something which has happened in the past.
Juventus had won the Coppa Italia three years in a row prior to Ronaldo's arrival, while Napoli's win brought a first trophy in six seasons at the San Paolo.

Is it fair grounds to criticise Ronaldo or is reaching a bit?

Sound off in the comments.

I am an unrepentant Messi fan to the backbone! However, it’s unfortunate that so many people are unnecessarily being too harsh on Ronaldo. He is undoubtedly one of the best players that has graced the football pitch. Cut him all the slack!

Football is a game of luck sometimes and not all the time do you find yourself winning. This is just another losing streak for Ronaldo. He has to cope with it.

Without mincing words, Messi is undoubtedly all round player with no match (My opinion) but you must respect Ronaldo’ tenacity, resilience and persistence in this soccer game. He has conjured a name for himself at 35 years yet still at the limelight.

Ronaldo is a good player but my piece is not to compare him with Messi. Don’t be too harsh on him. We aren’t all the same though. Remember how he had stepped up in big matches in time past.

Modified: Some of you hid past questions and materials back then in school just to come up on top. This is just an ugly replica of it in another version.

English FA is trying to start what they can not finish...................... From writing an inscription of "black lives matter" (a political inscription of a far left U.S Democrat) at the back of players jersey to forcing all players to take a knee (a political symbol), ..... According to FIFA law, political symbol and messages no matter how good it is should never be mixed with football, neither should any political message nor symbol be written on players jersey, that football belongs to all irrespective of your side of opinion.

It would have been better for English FA to used "say no to racism" than for them to use "black lives matter" (a political message) in premier league,....... Infact it would have been so perfect if the NHS was written in place of "black lives matter" in order to pay tribute to doctors who are currently at the Frontline saving lives of others and losing their own lives .............. Also it would have been much better for them to say that taking a knee should be optional rather than being compulsory for all players............. mixing football with politics is a very dangerous acts.............. infact FA should immidiately apologize for banning the use of poppy (a figure that seeks to honour world war 2 fallen hero soldiers) on players jerseys, because it is also for a noble cause ............................................. I wouldn't be surprised if players from now henceforth start to displays political figures and messages about various oppressive regime and evil act committed by their various government in their singlet and displaying them during matches (they will be justified in doing so, because it is also about a noble cause of freedom)......... I hope this will not bring about double standard, since political freedom messages can be express, I believe that no one should be denied freedom of expressing his own freedom political message.
And forcing everyone to kneel irrespective of their opinion is bad for a global fundamental human rights of freedom of taught and expression................... Football is a game for all (whether white, black, brown, purple etc) and the message displayed should be inclusive to all races,... Not pitting one race against another.............. AS FOR ME, "all lives matter"

Go through my entire Nairaland posts- I don’t engage in discussions like this. I felt it was necessary to be objective. You can’t quantity my love for Messi. However, I don’t don’t subscribe to this kind of criticism because he wanted to take penalty last.

By the way, i hardly condemn players at their height and you don’t treat people the way they are but treat them the way you are. If it had been something negative about Messi, this thread would have been flooded with Messi’ criticism.

Albeit, I am less concerned about online scuffle like this. I would always be soft on two great players like this. Again, my passion for Messi is extremely unquenchable! Always remember that both players don’t even know about us and our comments. It doesn’t stop me from being objective in life. What he did might have being that he wanted to take the glory but I find it soft to criticize him of his great footballing prowess.

Messi all the way.
