Burley Questions Ronaldo's Performance Against Big Teams
Former Chelsea midfielder Craig Burley criticized Cristiano Ronaldo's double strike for Portugal against Armenia in a World Cup qualifier, stating that Ronaldo doesn't perform against big teams. Burley suggested that Portugal coach Roberto Martinez should consider dropping Ronaldo from the national team despite his goals.
Ronaldo's goals against Armenia were scored in the Vazgen Sargsyan Republican Stadium, with Al Nassr teammate Joao Felix also finding the net. Burley emphasized Ronaldo's goal-scoring ability but questioned his performance against stronger opponents in major tournaments like the European Championships and World Cups.
