Portugal coach Roberto Martinez has spoken out about his star player Cristiano Ronaldo.

Portugal coach Roberto Martinez said he was very happy to work with Al-Nassr striker Cristiano Ronaldo. And he hopes to be able to do it for as long as possible.

“Ronaldo, a reference for young people”

The former Manchester United striker was stunning again in the win over Slovakia on Friday night. Scorer, he brought his number of achievements on the international scene to 125.

Obviously, the first to be satisfied with this performance is his trainer: “Cristiano is doing well, he plays a lot of minutes and scores a lot of goals with his club. He has a lot of experience in the national team, he represents a stimulus and a reference for young people.”

And when asked if his selection has once again become dependent on the five-time Ballon d’Or winner, the former Belgium coach retorts: “It’s not an individual sport, it’s everyone’s game and there’s no lack of commitment.”
