Journalist Piers Morgan revealed in a column written in the Daily Mail that he chatted with Cristiano Ronaldo over dinner. Cristiano Ronaldo has answered the 56-year-old British journalist’s questions regarding the best player he has played against and the answer does not deserve a big secret.
“Who was the best football player you played against? I asked Cristiano. It was one in the morning on a candlelit terrace at his favorite restaurant in Turin, before his recent decision to return to Manchester United. We had a great dinner, Japanese food and Italian red wine (I drank a little more than him) and talked about everything from elite sports, politics and even serial killers. But it was time to ask the big question. “Messi”, he immediately replied “, commented Piers Morgan.
” ” Truly ? “I questioned, surprised that he answered on behalf of his biggest rival”, added the journalist. ” Absoutely. It’s the best I’ve played against ”, Ronaldo said with a smile.
Piers Morgan continues to report the conversation and this is where he is, once again, surprised by the Portuguese. “But Piers, you’re asking me the wrong question. You should ask me who was the best player… ”, Ronaldo asked, to which Piers Morgan replied: “I think I know the answer”, he said.
“Ronaldo winked and we toasted. Cristiano thinks he is the best player of all time. And I agree with him ”, said the reporter.
