Juventus striker, Cristiano Ronaldo, has been named the best player in the Italian League in the 2019-2020 season. Interestingly, in his winning interview, Cristiano Ronaldo revealed that he had accepted Juventus’ failure in the Champions League.
Actually it is not something strange if the Portugal national team captain was lined up as the best player in Serie A last season. Because Cristiano Ronaldo successfully led Juventus to the title.

Not only that, CR7 is also a key figure. How not, because last season on the Serie A stage Cristiano Ronaldo was able to score 31 goals in 33 matches he played. This amount is equivalent to 41 percent of Juventus’ goals in the league last season.
However, it must be regretted that Juventus and Cristiano Ronaldo’s fortunes in the Champions League are not as good as their journey in domestic competition. Last season they were eliminated by Olympique Lyon in the last 16.
It doesn’t stop there, this season Juventus fell again in the last 16, but by FC Porto. Even though it is a painful thing, Cristiano Ronaldo realizes that defeat and failure are part of football.
“It was a strange year, a year that nobody wanted, but personally and the team, it was positive, because we won the (Italian league) championship,” Cristiano Ronaldo told Sky Sport Italia, Saturday (20/3/2021).
“In the beginning, it was difficult to play in an empty stadium, but our aim was to win the championship and we did it. We failed in the Champions League, but that’s football, “he continued.
Currently Cristiano Ronaldo is actually 36 years old. However, he was still able to perform at the highest level. It was recorded that during the 2020-2021 season, CR7 scored 30 goals in 33 matches.
Cristiano Ronaldo also explained his secret to always appearing at the highest level. He stated that motivation to always be the best is also another important factor.
“I think trust, endurance and passion are the secrets to continuing to enjoy football. I feel motivated and these elements have to coexist, otherwise it’s impossible to play at this level when you are 35, 36, 37 or 40 years old, “added CR7.
