Cristiano Ronaldo has told Portuguese television, RTP that Barcelona did not deserve to win the semi-final Champions League game versus Chelsea.

“I have the experience already to endure all the pressure. It is always bad to lose, whether against Chelsea or Barcelona, who had some luck, as they did not deserve to win the semi-final against Chelsea.”

Cristiano Ronaldo did go on to say that Barcelona should be credited with the win.  He also said that everything was wrong for Manchester United during the final.

When asked about the rivalry between Messi and himself, Cristiano replied that he was neither pressured nor disturbed.

The media will undoubtedly continue to draw conclusions of whom is the best footballer in the world, but it seems that Cristiano Ronaldo has matured much since last year’s rumor fiasco which began after a comment that he gave to the Spanish media, and is being a little smarter of what he says.  We say:  Good On Him.

Lastly,  there is no doubt that Barcelona deserved to win the final.  They were a superior team to United.

Barcelona has won the European Cup three times, but it is the first time that they have won the treble.  It is the first time that any Spanish team has won the treble.

The football world has been continuously comparing Manchester United’s superstar, Cristiano Ronaldo with Barcelona’s own superstar, Lionel Messi.

There has been a hardy debate by many football blogs on the internet and fans of either player as to whom is the best, but Portuguese football legend, Eusebio believes that comparing these two players is wrong.  Eusebio went on to say that the media only wants something to talk about and that is why they continue debating who is in fact the best footballer in the world.

“You cannot compare them,” Eusebio is reported to have told the press. “They have completely different styles.

“It was the same for me and Pele. It’s more something for the press to talk about.

Eusebio is a big fan of Cristiano Ronaldo and believes that Manchester United will win today’s Champions League final in Rome.

“They both have great chances to win. They have had great seasons, but I favour Manchester United.”
