Kulusevski Hopes To Tame ‘Unstoppable’ Ronaldo When Portugal Face Sweden

Kulusevski Hopes To Tame ‘Unstoppable’ Ronaldo When Portugal Face Sweden

Sweden international Dejan Kulusevski has admitted that Cristiano Ronaldo is unstoppable but he is counting on his team-mates to keep the Juventus superstar at bay when the Blue and Yellows face Portugal in the Nations League on Wednesday.

Ronaldo scored twice in the first leg of this fixture last month to take his goal tally for Portugal to 101, and will be looking to add to his numbers when Os Navegadores meet Sweden at the Estadio Jose Alvalade.

Having trained with Ronaldo at Juventus, Kulusevski knows much about the five-time Ballon winner.

Speaking to the media ahead of Sweden’s clash against Portugal, the former Parma loanee hailed Ronaldo and hopes he can be tamed unlike the first leg.

“In the first leg it was impossible to stop him, no one can do it. If he has a good day, he decides everything alone,” the Atalanta academy product told Aftonbladet.

“Wednesday we have another chance. It will be fun to face him as we get to know each other better.”

The former Manchester United and Real Madrid superstar has not found the net in Portugal’s previous games against Spain and France.

And Ronaldo will be extra motivated to score as he has an international record to break.

The 35-year-old is aiming to usurp Ali Daei, who scored 109 goals for Iran, as an all-time international goalscorer.
