Al Nassr’s crushing defeat from Celta Vigo seemed to make Cristiano Ronaldo feel like he was eating his own words. Because, previously he had made interesting comments.

“Saudi Pro League is better than MLS,” said Cristiano Ronaldo a few hours before the match against Celta Vigo started.

Not only that, Cristiano Ronaldo also issued an allusion to the football competition in Europe, which he said had experienced a decline in quality.

“The door back to Europe is completely closed. I am 38 years old, besides that European competition has also lost a lot of quality, the only valid thing is the English Premier League. They are far more advanced than other leagues, “said Ronaldo.
