‘So, my dear Virgil. Ronaldo was the triple champion of the country, where you have the game in years, and you still have not touched the cup. Cristiano Ronaldo was the best player and the most scoring player in the country, where you play, Virgil. In addition, he was even younger than you.’
And her rage continues just:
‘Then, dear Virgil, took Cristiano Ronaldo to other places and was the best player in the club’s history. Real Madrid, does that tell you something, Virgil? Perhaps enough, for it was the club, with this Cristiano guy who even beat you in the Champions League final. Them have Cristiano has already won five of Virgil,’ writes Katia Aveiro.
