The one who was assistant of Jorge Valdano during his stage in the Real Madrid, Ángel Cappa, has ensured that the Mexican Hugo Sánchez was a more intelligent "forward" than Cristiano Ronaldo
In some statements conceded to the Portuguese newspaper 'Record', Ángel Cappa has undone in praises to Cristiano Ronaldo but has ensured that, in comparison with Hugo Sánchez, the Mexican was more intelligent "" inside the terrains of game and especially in the rival area. "Hugo Sánchez was a more intelligent player that Cristiano Ronaldo", remarks the Argentinian technician, that was assistant of Jorge Valdano in the bench of the Real Madrid.
"Cristiano is a footballer with a lot of power, capacity with the two legs, cabecea. But Hugo was much more alive and pícaro inside the area. Behind the goal darse me of the movements that did, always worked the distraction and remained only to define. He handled the deception and this concept is fundamental in the football and in all the game, and Hugo did it of exceptional way", explains Cappa on the goleador Mexican, in a facet that 'CR7' is not able to equalise in spite of being more powerful and demoledor near of the area.
"Never it did what he could not do. Never I saw it drive a lot with the ball, never saw it dribble or gambetear to somebody. Always it played to one two touch because he knew that for gambetear was not very skillful and hardly ever did it. It was a player inteligentísimo for the definition", remembers.
Cristiano Ronaldo, in this appearance, can say that it also has gone changing along the years. To be an extreme regateador until no more is needed nor desired -sometimes with air circense- in the Manchester United, happened to turn into a goleador born in the Real Madrid, where little by little transformed in one of the best leading centres of the history.
Cristiano Ronaldo, with other intelligences
In spite of having freedom to move also by the flanks, Cristiano Ronaldo has gone centring much more his position and approaching it to the rival goal, also because of the estragos of the age. This same, the fact to recognise the flaquezas own and optimise the virtues, also is an exercise of intelligence futbolística in which players like the luso and Leo Messi are inigualables.
To his 35 years, 'CR7' keeps a spectacular physical state and was completing a big season until the moment of the stop by the coronavirus. We will see how much costs him start in the weeks to come, when it restart the football in Italy. For now, it follows having the firm ambition to accumulate titles and registers of prestige in Europe. And in the world.
