Transcript

00:00I understand the frustration of the fans because Cristiano Ronaldo used to perform a lot and

00:09carry on with the national team to success for so many years.

00:17We used to see him score so many goals, be a very decisive player and this moment is

00:26not what has happened and he is getting into a very important stage of the competition

00:36and we need him and everyone is expecting him to step up and show the quality and take

00:42the team forward.

00:47The thing is I believe he still has something to show if the coach decides he has to continue

00:55to play, I trust him and I know Cristiano in his mind right now is thinking just to

01:01give back to the team from the last matches he didn't perform maybe the way he wanted

01:09and the penalty he missed and everything people are talking about, I think it's a great opportunity

01:14for him to step up and get more energy and a positive vibe to score his goals or even

01:22maybe he cannot score but maybe he helps the team in a different way or assists or

01:26making his run and putting pressure on the opponent team so I believe he can be important

01:33for the team.
