Rooney: Never held a grudge against Ronaldo in the World Cup to pressure the referee to send me off, and it is normal for each of them to be their masters

Live Bar Feb. 6 Manchester United and Derby County Manager Rooney recently wrote a column in the Daily Mail about his clash with Cristiano Ronaldo in the 2006 World Cup.

In the 2006 World Cup, England played Portugal, after Rooney fouled C Ronaldo put pressure on the referee, the referee finally sent Rooney off, and England was subsequently eliminated. At the time, there were fears that the relationship between the Manchester United twins would completely break down, but Rooney did not bring the national team to the club, and with Ferguson's reconciliation and Rooney's own initiative, Rooney and Ronaldo continued to have a successful partnership at Manchester United.

Speaking about the past, Rooney said: "I was sent off in the World Cup against Portugal, then we were eliminated on penalties, and I found Cristiano Ronaldo in the players' tunnel. I said to him: 'Listen, you're going to be bombarded by the media, I'm going to be bombarded by the media, and now I'm focused on Manchester United.' I don't have a problem with what you do, empathy, I will also do whatever it takes to help England beat Portugal, this year is an important year for us Manchester United and we have a good chance of winning the Premier League title. ’”

"Immediately after England was out, my attention returned to Manchester United. I never held a grudge, in fact, in the first half I put pressure on the referee to give Ronaldo a fake punch. I play for England, he plays for Portugal and he can do everything to win. ”

"Honestly, I still don't know if I deliberately stepped on Carvalho, and my mind must have gone blank at that time."
