Watch: Ronaldo hugs Buffon as Italy star announces retirement
“The referee must have a trash bin in place of the heart, otherwise a human being can’t do what Oliver did tonight. You can’t take such a decision after what happened in the opening fixture. It’s sad but I will kip smiling.”
Right in the middle of the interview, Cristiano Ronaldo walked behind Buffon in the mixed zone of the Santiago Bernabeu and stopped to greet and hug the Italian goalkeeper.
“I am proud to be the captain of this Juventus side. I am sorry to retire. My biggest concern is to say goodbye to these lads, I hope I’ve taught them something.”
