Jesus will talk to CR7
Questioned about the attitude of CR7, the national selector guaranteed not to notice and you promised to talk to the team captain.
“I didn’t realize that. Only he can answer that. It's not because I didn't play that I didn't count on him. I need to talk to him. I know him very well. I don’t know what he thought,” said Jorge Jesus, in a press conference, after explaining the reasons that led him not to bet Ronaldo on this conflict with Norway.
“ I was thinking of putting him in the game, maybe in the last half hour, but the game is dictating other things and I thought it wasn't the time to put him in the game. We still have two more games. He was in a position to be able to play, it was an option, because I thought that was not the time for him to enter”, said the national selector, also advancing that Cristiano Ronaldo may even be a holder in the next game, in front of Denmark.
