Cristiano Ronaldo Offers Lionel Messi Support And Motivation

After Lionel Messi’s retirement from International football, following a final defeat to Chile in the Copa America, Cristiano Ronaldo has some words of encouragement for the little magician who the football world considers his arch-rival.

” Messi has taken a tough decision and people should understand. He is not accustomed to defeats and disappointments, not even finish the second. Missing a penalty does not make you a bad player , “said Cristiano Ronaldo .

Real Madrid has added words of encouragement:

“It hurts to see Messi in tears and I hope [for him] to return to his country , because he needs it .”
