The Ultimate Showdown - Cairo vs. Messi: Cairo, Manchester United No. 7
Cristianono entered the 2006 World Cup in Germany Ronaldi full of fighting spirit. He wanted to continue his excellent league performances at the end of the season and wash away the sad memories of the UEFA Nations Cup two years earlier. However, for a large number of England national team fans, Ronaldo was 'immortalized' in the 2006 world not because of his feet, but because of the eye that Rooney looked into the lounge and winked at after being red carded by the referee at the Manchester United teammate Wayne...
It was July 1, 2006, the world's top eight match between England and Portugal. At the time, the England national team was coached by Swede Sven-Goran Eriksson and captained by David Beckham, the man of the match who played for Real Madrid. As usual, many England fans were very optimistic and thought that this England team had a very good chance of going all the way to the end and winning the World Championship. The main reason for this is that they consider one of England's best contemporary players, aged 20, Wayne, a striker who has shone at club and national team level Rooney!When Rooney was recruited by Manchester United in the summer of 2004, he maintained a mutually respectful relationship with Ronald Ronald. The two young players also interacted quite consistently on the pitch. Many in the media have even called them the Premier League 'Beauty and the Beast', with Ronald often described as a solid working class born kid; aside from goals, assists and ambitions to be the most powerful footballer on the surface, Ronald is a handsome boy, often taking selfies with a mirror and strutting his stuff. His bare upper body, designer haircut, diamond earrings and skinny jeans saw him replace United's Bacchus as the most powerful marketing face.Alex Ferguson would sign Rooney and Ronaldo as he looked to build a younger United and hoped that these new young players would become veterans like Ryan. Giggs and Gary, with the help of Neville and others, they played soccer together, grew up together, and together they created Beckham's (with its representation of the so-called so-called 'Class of 92') new United era.Rooney and Ronaldo did not disappoint the Old Master in the 2004-05 season, and despite United's particle confiscation, Rooney and Rooney and Ronaldo confirmed their place in the team, which proved the old master's eye for bloodshed and selection.
But maybe it's because they know each other so well? In the National Team World match, both of them tried to attack each other's weaknesses or shortcomings.Rooney tried to get Ronaldo carded by faking a punt, and Ronaldo exaggerated his various physical moves. The match lasted 62 minutes. At the time, Rooney was fighting three Portuguese defenders near midfield. While he was battling Portuguese defender Ronik Rodi of Chelsea in the Premier League, Roney's thread of sanity snapped when Carvalho pulled and he stomped on Carvalho's groin! At first, Horacioo was the Argentinean presiding judge. Elizondo remained hesitant, but Rooney's United teammate Ronaldo kept gesturing to the presiding judge, so a red card was issued and Rooney was sent off. The cameras then caught Ronald Ronald looking at the Portuguese lounge area and winking. Ronald Ronald is booed off the pitch by a crowd of angry England fans
For Cristiano, Portugal ended up winning the game In this game, Ronaldo 'behaved' (including acting and winking) and the whole of England blew up, I can't believe how dare he (Ronaldo) do that? A lot of people said that, and former England national team captain Alan On the telecast, Shearer told millions of viewers that he thought Rooney would certainly do well in Ronaldo's first season back in Manchester. 'Hospitality' for him. And, of course, the British gossip papers claimed that when they next met, Rooney would tear Ronaldo in half; or make a dartboard out of Ronaldo's winking head, allowing angry England fans to vent their rage right in Ronaldo's face!
Portugal lost to France and stopped short of the top four. Ronaldo posed a lot of threats to France, especially his ability to hold up the ball, pass or cut on the left side, which wore down France's relatively aging backline, and he shone as a genius. Indeed, at the time, Ronaldo was simply the player England lacked most. He could have been everyone's favorite, but if there's genius, there's a shortage of talent. Ronaldo's stadium had nothing to do with his skills 'performance', which made him suffer countless boos on the pitch and gave him the idea of leaving England. He even told the Portuguese media that after the Ronaldo incident, he (Ronaldo) he would not stay at Manchester United and he would not stay to play in England...
