Ronaldo has done everything for Juventus but this is a team game , so therefore everybody needs to perform, it is not Ronaldo's fault that they lost in the qauter in fact he has scored two goals in both of the legs, what else you want from one player. if still you people thing it is Ronaldo's fault you need to be treated.i love you , I respect you for your hard work and consistences, God bless you Ronaldo!!!!!!!!
