Italian national team coach Roberto Mancini criticized Turin's "Juventus" attacking leader Cristiano Ronaldo, who failed to shine in the first Champions League quarter-final match against "Atletico", and the Italians lost 0:2.
According to the specialist, the veteran no longer resembles the unstoppable sniper who defended the honor of Madrid's "Real" team.
"Juventus" knew that tough match awaits them.
There is no magical recipe for Italians to overcome "Atletico", but the Turin club is experienced and last time they managed to create intrigue after a 0:3 loss in the match against the "Real" team.
Perhaps C.Ronaldo is not showing what he showed in the past, but he always achieves important things.
The Portuguese plays well in the Italian league. I think it's difficult for a player of his level everywhere - "Serie A" is as challenging as the "Premier" league, while it is a bit easier in Spain. I believe he is having a good season," - said R. Mancini.
