After Manchester United drew 1-1 with Southampton, Cristiano Ronaldo suffered a six-game goal drought, the first in 13 years. In January 2009, Ronaldo, who had not yet left Manchester United, suffered a seven-game drought, a gap of 13 years. But 13 years ago, Cristiano Ronaldo was greeted by a new sustained explosion, as well as multiple Ballon d'Or awards and a European Championship. But at this time, what awaited him was the end of the hero who was slowly aging. The same is all in Manchester United, but it is like forgetting the other side of the river, as if the next world has not been human.
A few days ago, C Luo himself was deeply overwhelmed and lamented that the years were not spared. Various media have launched a "liquidation" of him, pointing out that the existence of C Luo has become a burden to the giants. Taking this battle as an example, in the Manchester Evening News's rating of Manchester United players, C Ronaldo only scored 3 points as the lowest in the team. The comments were even sharper: missed opportunities at 0-0, offside too many times, sometimes seemingly motionless; if Cavani was going to play, he should replace Ronaldo. Another stat given by the media made C Ronaldo dare not look at it directly - last season, Manchester United without C Ronaldo had a 9-0 bloodbath at Southampton.
We are accustomed to the rhythm of C Ronaldo's happy burst goal, as well as the era label of "absolute double pride", and we are also used to using the strengths of one of Merello's two to set off the shortcomings of the other side, but just like at this time, C Ronaldo began to admit his fate, we had to start to get used to distinguishing "state ups and downs" from "the end of the crossbow", and used to accept and appreciate the elegy of an era.
When Messi won the Golden Ball again to throw C Ronaldo away, many people criticized Messi. At that time, Messi and C Luo had been separated for a long time, but they still shot their homes in the same frequency, C Ronaldo returned to the place where the dream began, the field was highlighted, Messi had a Golden Globe halo on his head, but the reality continued to be gloomy. At this time, there was a huge reversal, the rain of the "Dream Theater" made C Ronaldo's life-saving straw drift farther and farther, and Messi made 10 goals in the past 10 rounds, and people sighed: The best Messi is back! The best C Ronaldo is old!
Some people think that the competitiveness of Ligue 1 is obviously inferior to that of the Premier League, there is no Messi, Greater Paris is a champion, Messi and Greater Paris, just to add icing on the cake to each other, Greater Paris is eager to surpass Ligue 1, Messi is eager to surpass Barca. And Manchester United need to prescribe the right medicine, in the absence of a good prescription, in a hurry to turn over the prescription left many years ago, when the C Ronaldo was a strong medicine, at this time C Ronaldo was initially more like a dispensing, or a drug introduction, but now it has become a slag.
But in essence, Messi and C Ronaldo, are now much less creative than before, Messi has more and more of a shadow of health football, and C Ronaldo can no longer cover the edge or wave shooting, he has to put down his body value to actively participate in defense, in the face of teammates' passes from his side can no longer point fingers. In essence, he has become an opportunist in the front, and once the opportunity to take the ball is blocked, the chances of breaking the goal are greatly reduced.
What's worse is that B Fei, who only had tacit understanding with him before, also loosened the clockwork, Manchester United is still combined in the side, lack of interspersed levels, C Ronaldo can not withstand the trial of vertical penetration, and has to face the side of the penalty area and other opportunities, otherwise it is difficult to have a good opportunity to directly attack the goal. C Ronaldo loves walking? Perhaps, this is because he is no longer able to support his once omnipotent self, accustomed to the positioning of opportunism, but at the same time he wants to get closer to the goal and wants to score more.
In a sense, Messi borrowed the east wind of greater Paris, which could withstand Messi's swing, and C Ronaldo delayed Manchester United, and Manchester United also damaged C Ronaldo.
In the world of football, it is generally a phenomenon that pulls out the essence, which is an hindsight, even the most professional football commentary. Not long ago, we also praised Ronaldo for rekindling the passion of the "Theater of Dreams", but now we regard him as a nightmare. But even so, he ran tirelessly, still carrying the ball from the bottom line at the end of the game. He suddenly realized that he was old because he had been young enough for the previous 37 years.
