MILAN – The King ended one more year on his throne, but without the awards he aspired to. In 2020, no one scored more in the League than Cristiano Ronaldo, but the Portuguese could not take home or the individual awards to which he most aspires (the FIFA World Player went to Lewandowski and the Ballon d’Or was not awarded.) Or the The coveted Champions League ran away for the second year since joining Juventus. And even the end of the year was not what we expected, as they lost their strength against Fiorentina in a match that Juventus lost after losing the Milanese in qualifying.
BOMBER KING – The numbers speak for themselves and testify that CR7 is still number one at least in terms of goals scored in the league: there were 33 in all of 2020, one more than Lewandowski who, however, to be honest, played 3 games less in the Bundesliga (26 against 29). In European tournaments, in third place after the two “greats”, Ciro Immobile, last season’s Golden Boot and capable of signing 28 centers in the calendar year. However, considering also the European cups and the national cups, the Pole is in front with 45 centers against the 41 of the Madeira champion. Lukaku third with 35, ahead of Immobile (34) and Haaland (33).
THE WINNER’S ANGER – The primacy among the forwards of the League, however, does not exalt Cristiano who aspires to the most important individual and team trophies. That is why he was among the most angry at the end of the match against Fiorentina: he knows very well that the slip at home against Viola will force Juventus not to make mistakes again in 2021 if they want to put the Milanese back on track. That is why he wrote a post yesterday full of frustration, but also of … good intentions for next year: “We closed our 2020 with a bad performance – he wrote on Instagram – and with a completely different result. How acceptable. We are Juventus and we cannot accept anything less than excellence on the pitch! In the end we will celebrate again together with our fans! Trust us, we will make it happen. ” Then CR7 flew with his family to Abu Dhabi where he will be honored again this year at the Globe Soccer Awards. He will probably be awarded the award for best player of the century and Lewandowski as the best of 2020. Ronaldo, who is used to winning in the Emirates and who will not have to quarantine upon his return to Turin, will not settle for another award than the sheikh grants him. He wants the trophies to be awarded in May. From the Scudetto to the Champions League.
