In a game that had Bruno Fernandes, arguably one of the best players in the Premier League, Vitinha, one of the most intelligent midfielders in world football, plus João Neves, João Cancelo, Nuno Mendes, Pedro Neto and Bernardo Silva…

Your team created ZERO big chances in 90 minutes.
Zero.
Not one clear-cut chance.
Yet somehow, all the blame goes to Cristiano Ronaldo?
This is exactly why some of us no longer take football opinions seriously.
The obsession people have with blaming Ronaldo needs to be studied. At this point, it is no longer criticism; it is pure hatred.
How do you watch a game where the midfield fails to progress the ball, the wingers fail to create danger, the fullbacks offer little in the final third, and then conclude that the striker is the sole problem?
What exactly was Ronaldo supposed to do; drop into midfield, create chances, deliver crosses, and finish them himself?
Be serious.
A striker survives on service. Football is a team sport, not a one-man production.
The truth is simple: many people are not interested in objective analysis when it comes to Ronaldo. They have already decided to blame him regardless of what happens on the pitch.
If Portugal wins, silence.
If Portugal struggles, blame Ronaldo.
If there are no chances created, still blame Ronaldo.
At that point, you are not analyzing football.
You are simply looking for excuses to hate one of the greatest players to ever play the game.
Respect @Cristiano
