Ronaldo later answered critics by scoring twice in Portugal's subsequent 5-0 victory, opening up about the immense scrutiny he and his manager faced from the public.
"I can tell you it was a very tough week, a difficult week, a week in which public opinion was very harsh on us, all the players, especially the coach.

The Al Nassr striker concluded by emphasizing his work ethic and determination to push through external media attacks: "I always get there.
