Ronaldo clashes with journalist: 'I know you don't like me'

Cristiano Ronaldo had a heated exchange with journalist Marcelo Bechler during a press conference, where he was asked about the challenges of playing in a World Cup at the age of 41. The Portuguese superstar responded sharply, suggesting that the most difficult aspect is interacting with people who dislike him.

“

Give this to the guy in front of him, the one who doesn't like me, and see if he asks me a good question. You, yes. I know you don't like me.

Ronaldo directly addressed Bechler, stating, "Give this to the guy in front of him, the one who doesn't like me, and see if he asks me a good question. You, yes. I know you don't like me." He added, "I remember people's faces, I see them once and I never forget them."

The footballer further elaborated on the sacrifices required to maintain his performance level at his age. "To reach 41 years old at this level is an experience, to get here you have to give up many things. That's what I've done throughout my career," Ronaldo said. He acknowledged that he is not the same player he once was but emphasized his continued ability to score, expressing hope to do so in the upcoming match against Spain.
