Ronaldo: 'United did not do anything to win the match!'

The Juventus striker Cristiano Ronaldo was quite angry after defeating his former Manchester United club in the Champions League with 1:2. The Portuguese scored a great goal with which he opened the score, but the Red Devils made a twist in the end. He thinks the English have done nothing to deserve this success.

'The Champions League is a tournament that you can lead but you should not relax at any moment, because everything can happen. We have dominated all the 90 minutes and we have had so many situations. We had to score at least three or four goals, but finally we relaxed and we were punished. Manchester United did nothing to win the victory. We can not even talk about luck because a team must look for their own luck, and in this case we have just given it to them. Now we have to raise our heads because we played very well and we are at the top of the group!', says Ronaldo.

He also commented on a goal he scored at the meeting.

'I watched a repeat in the dressing room. At first I did not realize it had become such a beautiful performance. I moved well and kicked the ball loudly. I`m happy with this goal, but I`m disappointed, because we had to beat three or four goals. United did nothing. They brought in two static positions. I know the English teams love static situations. We will learn from our mistakes. We remain at the top of the group, so it`s all right!', added the Portuguese. 'He finally talks about Juventus` chances of success in the Champions League this season. It`s too early to say. We will go step by step. We are the first in the group and we have a good team but the road to the final is long. These people, this club via ronaldo best video dream of triumph in the Champions League, but we have to take small steps. We have a good team, a good coach and great fans - step by step!'  , the attacker concluded.
