Since the Italian giants were humiliated and knocked out of Champions League by Porto, Ronaldo has found himself on the receiving end of every critic.
Many view his spell at Old Lady as a total failure. Having won the Serie A title twice since arriving in 2018, a lot is yet to be desired with the lack of Champions League trophy being the reason for the failure perspective.
Receiving attacks from the Juventus fraternity, the Portuguese international bounced back spectacularly. In an action between his team and Cagliari, the under-fire Cristiano scored 3 goals within 30 minutes to keep the haters mesmerized.
Ronaldo found the back of the net with a fine header in Sardinia. Within the first 32 minutes, he had hit three. However, he survived a red card after his high foot caught Casteddu goalkeeper Alessio in the face.
Ronaldo had posted on Instagram:
“More important than the number of falls you take in life, is how fast and how strong you get back on your feet… True champions never break!” Cristiano had posted on Instagram.
“Our focus is already in Cagliari, in the Serie A struggle, in the Italian Cup final, and in everything that we can still achieve this season,
“It’s true that the past belongs in museums (I should say!), but fortunately, football has [a] memory… and so do I!
“History can’t be deleted, it’s written every single day with resilience, team spirit, persistence, and lots of hard work. And those who don’t understand this will never achieve glory and success.”
