At 35, Cristiano Ronaldo is struggling to regain his famous explosiveness following the three-month break for the coronavirus pandemic. But that’s normal for someone who hasn’t been playing games.”In last week’s semifinal match against AC Milan, Ronaldo virtually disappeared after failing to convert a first-half penalty. Making matters worse, Ronaldo could only watch helplessly when Napoli sealed the 4-2 shootout victory before he was slated to take Juventus’ last spot kick. This was supposed to be the month when Ronaldo was leading Portugal in the defense of its European Championship title. No wonder thousands of Napoli fans flooded the streets of the city to celebrate the cup title with fireworks into the early morning Thursday.
