Juventus star Cristiano Ronaldo said he had never seen Barcelona star Lionel Messi as a competitor or opponent for years, competing together for individual awards, indicating that they agree well together. And that was in an interview with the channel “Movistar”.
And Ronaldo began his speech laughing: “Our mission seemed impossible.”
He continued: “The secret is in the good beginning, after 20 minutes we had advanced with two goals, so from that moment we were sure that we can do it and take the lead.”
“This victory will strengthen our confidence. We needed a victory like this against a great team,” he added.
He continued: “I can’t say, I didn’t see my shot with Arachu on television, sometimes penalties are counted for minor interventions, but I don’t want to get into this matter, because the referee’s job is always difficult.”
And he added: “When you score 3 goals at the Camp Nou, there is no doubt about your eligibility to qualify as the first group.”
Ronaldo scored two goals on two penalties in Juventus’ 3-0 victory to qualify as the first group, while Barcelona qualified as second.
He spoke of the competition with Messi, saying: “We have been in the awards ceremonies for 12-13 years and I have never seen Messi as a competitor or opponent, this is only being raised in the media.”
“We were always good together, and if you ask Liu, he will tell you the same thing,” he said.
This is the first confrontation between Messi and Ronaldo since the latter moved to Juventus in the summer of 2018, as the first leg between the two teams did not include the Portuguese star due to his contagion with the Corona virus ” Covid 19 “.
