Cristiano Ronaldo Teasing Atletico Madrid Fans

DBasia.news –  Goals from Jose Maria Gimenez and Diego Godin led Atletico Madrid to a 2-0 win over Juventus at Wanda Metropolitano, the Champions League last 16 first leg on Thursday (21/2) early morning Western Indonesian Time.

Atletico could even win 3-0 if the referee did not annul Alvaro Morata’s goal because of the help of VAR (Video Assistant Referee). When Morata headed the ball in the second half, he was thought to have pushed Giorgio Chiellini to the ground.

Atletico adding to the sweet record never lost against an Italian team. At present, Los Colchoneros have met 10 clubs from Italy in Europe with two draws and eight wins.

Cristiano Ronaldo’s spurs who has scored 22 goals in 31 matches against Atletico, when he strengthened Real Madrid, not seen on Wanda Metropolitano. CR7 was subjected to intimidation by Atletico fans because of its status as a former Madrid player.

Not being able to endure being scorned, ridiculed, until quipped about his tax problems in Spain, the 34-year-old superstar responded with a five-digit gesture which meant five Champions League titles.

“I already have five Champions League trophies, while Atletico Madrid have never won it,” Ronaldo sarcastically said after the game ended, reported from Goal. Ronaldo did it on the playing field and after the match in front of the media crew.

Familiar with that style? Yes, Jose Mourinho has also done this season while still training Manchester United. He showed three gestures to Chelsea fans who mocked him, which meant: three Premier League titles.

Same with Ronaldo, Mourinho also showed him in front of the media saying “Respect, respect, respect. The Special One, unfortunately, did not last long with United until he was fired last December and replaced by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

On nine occasions against Italian clubs, Atletico have never lost through two draws and seven wins.

“I already have five Champions League trophies, while Atletico Madrid have never won it,” Ronaldo quipped after the game as reported by the Goal.

Juve lost. But, Massimiliano Allegri is optimistic that the Bianconeri can reverse the situation when playing the second leg at the Allianz Stadium in March.

“Yes, of course, Juventus feel very disappointed with this defeat, but we must have confidence that the team will be able to turn things around in the second leg later,” added Allegri.

“The match will not run easily and will again present an interesting match. Juve will perform better, in contrast to this match, the players had difficulty playing Atleti’s game, especially in the second round. Yes, we did lag on aggregate goals 0- 2, but we can still turn things around. It’s very useless if we continue to mourn this defeat,” he concluded.
