Although the World Cup will start on Sunday, it seems that lately the football community is more interested in the scandalous Cristiano Ronaldo interview with Piers Morgan.

On Wednesday, the first part of the full interview was released, in which the "Manchester United" footballer talked about former "Red Devils" manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

According to the Portuguese, the club should have given more time to the Norwegian.

"I really liked Solskjaer. He is a wonderful person, and that is very important to me. It's very difficult to fill Sir Alex Ferguson's position, but Ole did a really great job.

He needed more time. I have no doubt that Solskjaer will be a wonderful coach in the future. It was a pleasure to work with him, even though it was a very short period,” C. Ronaldo said.
