Roy Keane in support of Cristiano Ronaldo
Cristiano Ronaldo, a five-time winner of the Ballon d’Or, generated a lot of controversy in the football world with his actions in the last match between Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspurs of the English Premier League. He left the stadium even before the final whistle was blown.
Now, Roy Keane, a well-known football commentator, has stepped up to defend Cristiano Ronaldo, claiming that it might simply be a mentality and that Ronaldo’s actions demonstrated his concern for his team. His temper rage was entirely motivated by his frustration and the stress he had been harboring all season.
Roy Keane said, “But I try and see this from a player’s point of view. He’s obviously had enough he’s lost his head. And I think it’s been brewing over the last few weeks with Ronaldo but I will still try and defend him. He feels frustrated that he’s not been probably getting opportunities. And he’s had enough and he’s walked down the tunnel. I think players have done a lot worse things at Man united. I think it happens. Human nature.”
He also added, “I think he cares about the club. People say and he’s not the player he was ten years ago. Of course he’s not. He was leading goalscorer last year for Man United. He went to Man United last year to a bad man united team. Really bad team. He’s still leading goal scorer.”
Cristiano Ronaldo facing consequences
This season, the star football player from Portugal Cristiano Ronaldo was in such poor shape that he only started one game. Although their head coach has a lofty ambition to change the team, it appeared that Ronaldo played little part in that transformation. Only two goals had been scored by him for Manchester United this year.
He was also punished by being unable to participate in their subsequent game, which was against Chelsea yesterday, as a result of his behavior during the encounter against Tottenham Hotspurs. The final score of the match was 1-1 for both teams. With the involvement of the media and controversies, the situation is becoming a little bit dirtier.
