Cristiano Ronaldo: Juventus star slammed – ‘I cannot admire this champion’

Ronaldo is the star attraction in Serie A this season having joined reigning champions Juventus from Real Madrid in July.

The 33-year-old made his competitive debut for the Old Lady in Saturday’s 3-2 come-from-behind win against Chievo at the Stadio Marc’Antonio Bentegodi.

Goals from Emre Can and Federico Bernardeschi, coupled with Mattia Bani putting through his own net, handing Juventus three points.

Cristiano Ronaldo will have to wait until at least Saturday’s showdown with Lazio to get off the mark for his new club, thanks in part to an inspired performance from Sorrentino.

Sorrentino made eight saves against Juventus but did not see the game out after being clattered by Ronaldo.

The collision left the Chievo goalkeeper with a broken nose, whiplash and a bruised shoulder.

Sorrentino’s wife, Sara Ruggeri, has taken to Instagram to criticise Ronaldo.

“I kept everything to myself until now, I was trying to be strong and to look only at what’s really important for me and my family, and by that I mean our hero Stefano,” wrote Ruggeri, alongside a picture of Ronaldo walking away from the prone Sorrentino.

“But now, looking at these images, I just have to say … LOOK AT THE DIFFERENCES!

“Those who they call champions to must learn to be HUMANS first!

“I’m sorry but I cannot admire this champion!

“I can admire true men like my other half and [Chievo defender Nenad] Tomovic who is doing everything to help him!

“Thanks to those who have a good heart, humanity, dignity and healthy principles!

“SHAME for those who insult, criticise, rejoice or worse still observe and leave!

“Think people think!”

Sorrentino revealed on Twitter that Ronaldo has been in touch following their coming together though.

“I received a message of closeness and prompt recovery from Cristiano Ronaldo,” he wrote. “Thank you legend!”

Meanwhile, Ronaldo will be eager to replicate some of the success he enjoyed at Real with Juventus.

However, Wesley Sneijder doesn’t think the Portugal international’s arrival will be enough for Massimiliano Allegri’s side to secure Champions League glory.

“No, I don’t think so,” said Sneijder, when asked if Juventus will win the Champions League off the back of Ronaldo’s move to Turin.

“I don’t think so it’s not about one player you know, of course in the past years Juventus did a great job in the Champions League.

“But it’s not about one player who is going to change everything, that its going to change that much that you are going to win the Champions League.

“There are tougher teams than Juventus.

“For the league, okay it would surprise me if they don’t win the league but the Champions League I think you need more for that.”
