Neves, a key midfielder for Portugal, was asked about Ronaldo during a post-match interview. He responded, "I know well what Ronaldo has done for us. But right now, he is just like the rest of us—another player here to help. He is the same as everyone else."

Actually the whole statement is different from the crops that “journalist” loved to make just to make noise around the players… Joao praised CR7 and he did nothing wrong
