Ronaldo Outshines Messi In Emphatic 3-0 Victory Over Barcelona
Cristiano Ronaldo outshined his biggest rival Lionel Messi, as he scored two penalties in the Champions league match against Barca last night.
It was a frustrating night for Lionel Messi, who put in a wonderful effort and made 7 attempts, but all his shots were prevented from going in by Juventus’s 42 year old goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon.
Ronaldo on the other hand, contributed 2 goals from the spot, and his teammate Weston McKennie, also added another goal from a bicycle kick to secure Juve’s emphatic 3-0 win over Ronald Koeman’s side.
Speaking in a post-match interview, Koeman said “We weren’t aggressive, It looked as if we’d come out looking not to lose, as opposed to trying to control the game. We weren’t good, not even positionally. We looked scared.”
