Cristiano Ronaldo has come out to say that he has proven why Juventus bought him for huge money.
He revealed this after his remarkable hat trick that ensured overturn a 2 0 defeat in the first leg, thereby sending Atletico Madrid packing from the Champions League.
His words, “This had to be a great night and it was one, not just for my goals but for the team,”
“Maybe this is why Juve signed me. I just do my job and it was a magic night. We’ve not done anything yet, but we’re very proud.”
On the victory, Bonucci said the criticisms they got inspired the comeback as they had to prove a point.
His words, “Somebody was already celebrating, but we replied on the field,”
“A lot of things have been said since that game and these days, but as always Juve provided their answer on the field.
“We showed we’ve got [guts] for the whole game. Remember that we had players out, yet this was a great game with what we tried in an incredible atmosphere — the stadium was really our 12th man tonight.
“Certainly all that was said had touched us personally and when that happens, you give that bit more. People are only looking for mistakes, but that’s how it is and the coach and the team are experienced enough and we have thick skin.”
