English FA is trying to start what they can not finish...................... From writing an inscription of "black lives matter" (a political inscription of a far left U.S Democrat) at the back of players jersey to forcing all players to take a knee (a political symbol), ..... According to FIFA law, political symbol and messages no matter how good it is should never be mixed with football, neither should any political message nor symbol be written on players jersey, that football belongs to all irrespective of your side of opinion.

It would have been better for English FA to used "say no to racism" than for them to use "black lives matter" (a political message) in premier league,....... Infact it would have been so perfect if the NHS was written in place of "black lives matter" in order to pay tribute to doctors who are currently at the Frontline saving lives of others and losing their own lives .............. Also it would have been much better for them to say that taking a knee should be optional rather than being compulsory for all players............. mixing football with politics is a very dangerous acts.............. infact FA should immidiately apologize for banning the use of poppy (a figure that seeks to honour world war 2 fallen hero soldiers) on players jerseys, because it is also for a noble cause ............................................. I wouldn't be surprised if players from now henceforth start to displays political figures and messages about various oppressive regime and evil act committed by their various government in their singlet and displaying them during matches (they will be justified in doing so, because it is also about a noble cause of freedom)......... I hope this will not bring about double standard, since political freedom messages can be express, I believe that no one should be denied freedom of expressing his own freedom political message.
And forcing everyone to kneel irrespective of their opinion is bad for a global fundamental human rights of freedom of taught and expression................... Football is a game for all (whether white, black, brown, purple etc) and the message displayed should be inclusive to all races,... Not pitting one race against another.............. AS FOR ME, "all lives matter"

Cristiano Ronaldo has received a whole lot of criticism after he didn't step up to take a penalty in the Coppa Italia final shoot-out defeat to Napoli.

Despite seeing a spot-kick saved in his return to action in the semi-final against AC Milan, Ronaldo is comfortably Juventus' best penalty taker and is normally immune to pressure in the big moments.

But the five-time Ballon d'Or winner didn't even get to take one last night.

Both Paulo Dybala and Danilo missed from 12 yards while Napoli scored all four through Lorenzo Insigne, Matteo Politano, Nikola Maksimovic and Arkadiusz Milik - the latter putting away the winner to secure Gennaro Gattuso's first trophy.
And many believe Ronaldo didn't take a penalty because he wanted to be fifth on the list and ultimately the hero - something which has happened in the past.
Juventus had won the Coppa Italia three years in a row prior to Ronaldo's arrival, while Napoli's win brought a first trophy in six seasons at the San Paolo.

Is it fair grounds to criticise Ronaldo or is reaching a bit?

Sound off in the comments.

Stupid talk.

He has always been the fifth player taking Pks. If he had taken the last and scored.... No emptyheads will be here talking nonsense in the rubbish.

This is the most useless post I have ever seen on nairaland.
Wont the pressure to score the penalty be more in the last stages of the shoot out. So messi fans after hailing and praising dybala as being far better than ronaldo in Juventus, will still look for a way to blame ronaldo for dybala miss..
This is life can sometimes be harsh
No.

Sometimes scoring the first penalty is a big morale booster for the rest of the team.

Since Ronaldo claims he is very good at penalties he ought to go first sometimes.

It is likely that if he had gone first and scored Juve would have won.

But he loves to go last every time and there could be only one reason for this;

MAKE THE HEADLINES AND STEAL ALL THE GLORY TO HIMSELF.

Rubbish. If he is the first that takes it and scores but juve loses, they will complain that he ought to have been the last to take it. If if takes it and loses, they will say the same thing
No matter what you do in life, some people will always fault you. Do what works for you, regardless.

Of course Ronaldo is the most selfish footballer ever. He doesn't contribute to team play, always waiting for tap-in and penalty, let's not forget that he blames his teammates when things go bad.

The only reason he keeps jumping from one club to another is because of his selfish aims,he wants to prove that he can do it all without his teammates which is no true.
he doesn't contribute but he has over 200 assists..... over 700goals(headers,long range shots,freekicks,tap ins,acrobatics,penalties) plus over 200 assists.... what else make a great player?

u said he only scores tap ins?
na 2018 u begin watch ball be that.
75-80% of Messi nd Ronaldo goals are within 18yards.

go do ur research before vomiting jargons.

Fair game. It's nothing new. While he is being criticized for not taking a pK, what about the people that lost theirs, they are as qualified as he is but they missed anyway, Juventus will win the scudetto, will face Napoli in the super cup and win it. Bet on it.

after spending few minutes to read that write-up above, I wanted to knock sense into the idiot spiritually of course.

do you know that the liberty you enjoy today, it's because of the warriors of yesterday, do you know how many people paid the supreme price.

it is because of these present warriors, your kids would not be abused based on race.


"all life matters'. widelife expert save endangered species and not abundant species. the black race is an endangered specie

"The black race is an endangered species" has to be the most stupid statement from an equally stupid person who dwells on too much crap from the fake news msm. As a race we are overpopulated, that's why blacks constitute the largest immigrant population in ALL Western countries. Secondly, you can never be respected until you start to making meaningful contributions to the development of mankind, this is something Japan and understand very well, that's why even with their evil past, they are very well respected and their citizens are treated with dignity outside. China and India are beginning to catch up with this philosophy and are gradually increasing their value while virtually ALL African and some central American nations( Haiti, Dominican, Honduras) are just beggarly, don't contribute anything positive and are always receiving aids and grants from developed nations, even Nigeria and south Africa still receive grants from US to this day #shameful. Lastly, you all are just preying on the goodwill nature of Western citizens cos you definitely can't try all this bullshit with Arabs or the Chinese even fucking Indians are killing and lynching Nigerians in their cities.

You can't please everyone. People like that should simply be ignored
If he had taken the first or second penalty, then Dybala and Danilo lost theirs eventually, people would still talk


He lost his last penalty and was probably not confident enough.
Also the last penalty is very decisive too because of tensions


Another thing people forget is teams don't just go out there and do whatever they like. Something must have happened in the training or maybe the coach's instructions


PS; All this is not a defense for Ronaldo. Juve and Cr7 were lacklustre yesterday.

To me, Sarri is clueless!
He loves the spotlight...
I ed in 2012 euros he refused stepping up to take the penalty until the 5th one...
Unfortunately Spain had already won before it got to the fifth..
There's no need to bury your head in the sand when you could acknowledge the truth

my brother or my friend or opponent

this is the fact I want to state categorically, money is not everything, listen clearly. money brings respect but it's not everything's

ASK The JEWS: is Africa richer than Israel? anti semitism has taken over Europe, the Jews are hated despite their huge wallet, everywhere, even in God's own America, Asia,

people hate people, even with money
