Didn´t forgive that he left him on the bench in the World Cup, this is what CR7 did to his DT

Cristiano Ronaldo did not play in the World Cup as a starter due to the decision of Fernando Santos and the Portuguese did not like that. The DT revealed in an interview that now he has no longer contacted him. "I would make the same decision. It was a strategic decision. First I have to think about the team."

"I thought strategically that it was the best decision. My technical team and I, as you understand, discussed this matter, it was not an easy decision. Even for personal reasons, friendship and so on, since it had a great weight. My trust in him was the same," added Cristiano Ronaldo's former coach.

"Everyone who was there thought we were going to be world champions. If we had beaten Morocco and against the next rival France, perhaps Cristiano would be in the starting eleven. Anyway, in terms of the pace of the game, it was his worst moment "He had no rhythm. We tried, during the games leading up to the World Cup, and then in the first games, to give him some rhythm, which was what he was missing," he added.

Cristiano Ronaldo no longer speaks to Fernando Santos

"When I called him in the morning to tell him that I was not going to be a starter, he misinterpreted my decision. If it were today I would make the same decision... One day we will look at each other and think: 'We have always had this (good) relationship,'" he revealed. the coach, Fernando Santos.
