Anthony Martial has rubbished rumours of a divide between Cristiano Ronaldo and his Manchester United teammates.
How Man United's Cristiano Ronaldo predicted exactly when he would break stunning goal record
24.02.2022 - 23:49 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Danilo has revealed how his compatriot Cristiano Ronaldo remarkably predicted he would break the all-time international goal-scoring record against the Republic of Ireland.
Ronaldo's chances of doing so in their encounter last year were slim, with the Manchester United ace requiring a brace in a matter of minutes.
At the time, Portugal were losing the match 2-1 and their chances of turning the tide around looked slim — but Ronaldo's confidence was not dented.
In an interview with Ouest France, Danilo revealed that Ronaldo remarkably predicted that his side would turn the game around.
He said: "Two minutes from the end, he came for a drink by the bench and said to us: “Don’t worry. We will win.
"I heard what he said and looked at the stadium screen, it was the 88th minute.
"I thought: ‘What?’ Well, I didn’t say anything, but… in the end, we won 2-1. He scored two goals, in the 89th and 96th minutes…”
Those goals took Ronaldo's international tally to 111, breaking the previous record of 109 international goals scored by Iran's Ali Daei.
10th Portugal are still seeking to secure their spot at the World Cup in Qatar later this year, as they prepare for a play-off challenge against Turkey next month.
