Sacchi slams Ronaldo form

Former Real Madrid sporting director Arrigo Sacchi has slammed Cristiano Ronaldo for “not beating a player in three months”.

Ronaldo continues to battle with Lionel Messi for top-scorer gongs in La Liga and the Champions League, despite perceptions from some media quarters that he has shown a lack of commitment to his teammates this season.

It is a state of affairs which have left the legendary Coach to suggest that the Portuguese’s goals are merely papering over the cracks of his poor form.

“Cristiano Ronaldo hasn’t beaten a player in three months,” he told Mediaset.

“He scores goals because he’s a fighter, but he’s not in form.”
