How many footballers have the dream of having Cristiano Ronaldo as an opponent if they play as a teammate. Thousands, at least ninety minutes in one field, will have the opportunity to play together! Maybe Shakhtar Donetsk players were waiting for this opportunity, but the rules are left. If Ronaldo is in Real!
Ronaldo left Spain two years ago and moved to Italy. Not Real's white, Ronaldo now wears Juventus' black and white jersey. However, he has scored four goals in the last two matches with Shakhtar, for Real. That Real is now on the field without Ronaldo, fee week. That thing seemed like a fantasy even a few years ago. Although Real have become accustomed to a life without Ronaldo, Shakhtar still cannot accept that even if there is Real as an opponent tomorrow, Ronaldo will not stay.
Whether Ronaldo is called a compatriot or not, Shakhtar's coach Luis Castro still doesn't understand why anyone would leave a star like Ronaldo. "If you have Cristiano Ronaldo in your team, you shouldn't leave him in any way," he said before the match. Never. '
The two teams met twice in the group stage of the Champions League in 2015. In the first leg, Real won 4-0 at home to Santiago Bernabeu. Ronaldo scored a pair of goals, Sergio Ramos and Karim Benzema scored one goal each. In the second leg, however, Shakhtar was able to put up a good resistance at home. Real gave three goals. But in the end, the Ukrainian club has to submit to the 'defeat-not-accepting device' named Ronaldo. Ronaldo scored a pair of goals in that match, along with Luca Madrich and Dani Carvajal. The other players who scored in those two legs are still in Real, but not Ronaldo.
