Cristiano Ronaldo Talks about Italian Football Culture

DBasia.news –  It’s almost a season Cristiano Ronaldo played in Italy with seven consecutive Scudetto champions, Juventus, since leaving from Real Madrid. According to him, Italy is more difficult than Spain and England.

Ronaldo has scored 19 goals in Serie A and is in the top five top scorers with Fabio Quagliarella (20 goals), Krzysztof Piatek (19 goals), Duvan Zapata (17 goals), and Arkadiusz Milik (14 goals).

He has played half of the season since joining Juventus from Real Madrid. Providing a comparison with the culture of football in England and Spain, the 34-year-old admitted that it was very difficult to score in Italy.

“In my opinion, it is more difficult to score in Serie A than La Liga, which is much more open. Teams are more willing to take risks there, while priorities here last well and then attack,” said Ronaldo, reported Football-Italy.

“In Spain that is not the case. The game there is always much more open. I have also played in England for five years, but I still think it is very difficult to score in Italy,” he explained.

Italy became a new experience for Ronaldo who previously played in Portugal, England, and Spain. She enjoys her new life there with her children and her lover, Georgina Rodriguez.

“I am happy to be in Italy and the competition in the league is very difficult. My experience is very good so far. I feel fine about myself. I feel fit with the Italian League and the league that is difficult to play,” Ronaldo said.

“In my opinion, this (league) is the most difficult for attackers, the league with a lot of quality. I don’t think the Italian League has this much quality.”

“I am happy, family, and my children are happy. Everything is positive. We live comfortably, my family loves Italy. The lifestyle here is different, the country is different, the language is different, the culture is different, but I adapt well,” Ronaldo explained.
