Mourinho predicts the fate of Ronaldo at the age of 50 years

As a former Real Madrid coach, Jose Mourinho predicted the fate of Ronaldo when the Juventus striker was 50 years old.

Cristiano Ronaldo has just made a scene after scoring not just one, not two, but four goals at a time, when Portugal won 5-1 at home against Lithuania in a qualifying match at Euro 2020 yesterday. The four goals behind CR7 now surpass Robbie Keane's record for most goals in the qualifying phase of European competition.

Jose Mourinho predicted that Ronaldo could still score a lot of goals at the age of 50. This means the forecast for the next 16 years starts today. The Juventus star - who played under Mourinho at Real Madrid - has now scored 94 goals for his country and shows no signs of slowing down.
Mourinho: Ronaldo is a phenomenon!

Mourinho hailed the Golden Ball winner five times as "a phenomenon" - and predicted that the Portuguese star would never stop scoring even after retiring from competitive football. At the age of 50, Ronaldo must remain a leading player in friendly matches or exhibitions involving caption after hanging up his boots.

An exhibition match for example is the witness match or the separation of Vincent Kompany last night, when Manchester City Legends drew 2-2 against the Premier League All-Stars.

"What Cristiano did not surprise me," Mourinho told Portuguese television channel 11. "At age 34, he is a prominent player who plays in a leading team and has big ambitions. This does not surprise me because this is a case study in genetic and mental terms. "

"That is a phenomenon, someone who just thinks about winning and doing it is getting better and better, so I am not at all surprised by what he is doing."
Ronaldo will be invited to match the information

"When he is 50, he will stay at home and FIFA will invite him to a legendary match, he will play well and score goals, I'm sure it will be like that."

Meanwhile, Ronaldo revealed that Portgual's success in recent years has fueled his desire to continue playing international football after his last outstanding performance.

Speaking after their victory over Lithuania, which increased the chances of the Selecao to qualify for the Euro 2020 finals, he said: "I had fun, but the team was also very successful. I was happy and enjoyed this moment, not because I scored, but because of the level [greatness] that we have been able to show in the last few years. "

"It is very difficult to win in Serbia and it is important to win here, we are closer [to qualify for the finals], we have two matches left - one at home and one away - and I think if we win one of those matches, it's already enough [to escape]. "
