Ligue 1: Cristiano Ronaldo Criticizes the French League Again
Cristiano Ronaldo, the Portuguese football star and former Real Madrid legend, has once again voiced strong criticism of France’s Ligue 1. In a recent interview with Piers Morgan, Ronaldo expressed his view that the French championship revolves solely around PSG.
"The Saudi Pro League is much better than the Portuguese league and Ligue 1, where there’s only PSG. For me, it’s easier to score in La Liga than in the Saudi Pro League," he said.
He added a pointed remark about the challenges of the Saudi Pro League, which some critics have not experienced. Ronaldo said:
"They can say whatever they want, but the numbers don’t lie. They’ve never played in the Saudi Pro League. They don’t know what it’s like to run under 40°C heat. Just look at the number of top-level players we have in the league. If I were playing right now for a big Premier League team, I’d still be scoring just as many goals."
Ronaldo’s Perspective on Different Leagues
- He praised the Saudi Pro League as superior to both the Portuguese league and Ligue 1.
- He pointed out the dominance of a single club, PSG, in Ligue 1.
- He emphasized the physical challenges of playing in the Saudi Pro League, especially the heat.
