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.

Ronaldo doesn't contribute to the team?
I bet you're a kid, you don't know Ronaldo of sporting, Man utd & early Madrid days.
The guy is old now, you don't expect him to do much now.
Even Messi now hardly joins defense now due to age

I love Messi. He has my respect but I'm not a fanatic like yah.

just mention 2 well known penalty takers who play first in a shootout? I dare you.

Arguing out of hatred is not good for the soul. just like I said, it makes you a witch. have a good night rest. #shallom
Of the top of my head

Messi
Milner


Most of those stars who go last love to do it for the glory and the headlines.

But Ronaldo is worst.


And this is the reason why you need to respect Messi much more,

He's a superstar yet he goes first.

Good nite.

. My friend go and sit down all lives matter yes.. When the civil society are fight for education of girl child or rape of girl child or gender equality.. Do you hear all child education matter or all rape matter or all gender matter? This because at a particular point in time one particular group of people is endangered or extremely threatened by rape.. The illustrations is just like 4 people A B C D are hungry and D has not eaten since 4 weeks but A,B,C get food and D is shout about food and A, B, C tell him to keep quiet they are hungry too everyone is hungry at the table.. Or just like getting gift to orphanage you now say children with their parents are suffering too..

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.

we all know when it comes to penalty shoot out CR7 likes taking the last kick for his team. For me he's not being selfish at all.

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.


Messi all the way!

You are not a Messi fan to write this bro. If you are a real Messi fan you will know C. Ronaldo and his fan boys have done worse and will do more in future so as far as their ewure bleeps up we will give it to them as e dey hot cos they do not reason when Messi is involved.. As a true Messi fan I am sure you have come across it else you no be Messi fan as I said earlier.

Well, you made a point. Nevertheless, isn't easy drawing a line between what is a political Statement, what is politically correct or what is expedient. Even the SAY NO TO RACISM slogan has political undertones as well.
I do agree with you though, that mandating every player to kneel is wrong.

Bro you have to understand most people (including you) just like Messi because he dribbles past players. when he does one dribble people like u just start celebrating for no reason it doesn't work man. All Pessi has are his dribbles

He doesn't even deserve to be called Pessi because Ronaldo is better than him at penalties

I mean Hazard dribbles 2 but no one commends him 4 it

The sad truth is that statistically and physically Ronaldo is better than Pessi the fraud.

You can't please everyone. People like that should simply be ignored
If he had taken the first or second penalty, then Dybala and Danilo lost theirs eventually, people would still talk


He lost his last penalty and was probably not confident enough.
Also the last penalty is very decisive too because of tensions


Another thing people forget is teams don't just go out there and do whatever they like. Something must have happened in the training or maybe the coach's instructions


PS; All this is not a defense for Ronaldo. Juve and Cr7 were lacklustre yesterday.

To me, Sarri is clueless!

Guy! I tire for Sarri.
How can a team like that be losing anyhow. It means one thing, their coach doesn’t know how to use them. They need klopp in their team oh

The point is before Eder and Bernardo. Ronaldo won nothing in Portugal and that is a fact.. What happened in 2004 is not Messi business but he was a feeder team player and has not made his debut for Argentina.else you have indirectly ended the argument cos if you bring Argentina as a whole that means Messi has 2 world cups and many Copa America title while Ronaldo has only two.. If you wanna go direction then I wish you luck.
