Brazil’s jersey no.10 legend Ronaldo came to media and backed Jr. by with his word, “We have to be technical in our comments and not like bar punters. Football is interpreted in different ways, and there are many opinions. Neymar uses his mobility to defend himself from the bumps and hits that are dished out to him. He is a great talent. When the people with violent actions repeatedly targeted me, I felt that I was treated rudely. The criticism is stupid, and the response that he is giving for the team is marvellous, but we still haven’t seen the best of him.” not only Ronaldo but Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho said there is not only Neymar who is pressurising the referee but lots of players are trying to fool referees even the VAR. In a statement, Mourinho said, “People are spotting Neymar, but if it was only Neymar- I’d be happy, but it’s not only Neymar who is fooling around. Every team is producing lots of dives, lots of pressure on the referee, lots of pretending. The game will lose its quality, and for me, that is not the good point.”
