Nuno Mendes reacts to a controversial sentence from Cristiano Ronaldo

This Monday night the Quinas de Ouro ceremony took place, when various people in Portuguese football received an award. This was especially true for Cristiano Ronaldo, who received the Platinum Quinas, an award celebrating the love of the five-time Ballon d’Or for his selection. In his speech, CR7 took the opportunity to send a small tool to those who do not want to wear the Seleção jersey : « There is nothing more rewarding than representing this election. That’s why I’m sometimes disappointed with certain players who don’t want to play for the pick. »

Not surprisingly, this declaration was repeated almost everywhere in the Portuguese and international media, and Nuno Mendeswho was present at the press conference this past Tuesday, was invited to give his opinion on his captain’s comments. But the Parisian side preferred to talk about its own experience rather than get involved in unwelcome controversies: ” Everyone has their own opinion. I speak for myself: I am very proud to represent Portugal, I think it shows. I give my all on the field and in training. He has his opinion, I have mine. And as for me, I will always be available to be there. »
