people take incredible offence to ronaldo being slighted, it's really incredibly pity. all i see is accusations of ronaldo hate and bias against him when alot of the times the criticism is fair enough.
in any case, he had a poor game today, it was around the 70th minute, and i forgot he was on the field. reminded me slightly of the 2009 cl. not that bad, but he didn't dominate the game like it should be expected of him. scored a penalty, but di maria was far more important. Ronaldo is a striker, he isn't a winger. I wish people would realise that, but since he makes one or two dribbles in garbage time, people persist with this confusing concept. oh well, hopefully he has a better world cup. we'll see if it's the injury that held him back today, but i've seen many performances like this from cristiano, so i'm compelled to believe that that isn't an excuse.
