The Portuguese international has appeared rather discomforted with watching Mancini’s men claim the silverware in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749.
Real Madrid’s http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cristiano-Ronaldo-c9629 has expressed that he is disappointed and shocked to see Manchester City become the new champions of the English Premier League.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ronaldo-c31734’s former club Manchester United.
The Citizens clinched the hard-fought trophy on the last day of the season as they emerged 3-2 victorious against 10-man Queen’s Park http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Rangers-c40314.
Having a superior goal difference was the way in which the Premier Leauge was decided as Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson's men were on level footing throughout the season.
The Madrid number 7 revealed that he had bet his money on Sir Alex Ferguson’s men as he was confident that they would emerge triumphant once again and will claim their 20th Premier League this season.
City were crowned as the new champions on Sunday after one of the most thrilling matches of the season.
As the Blues played host to QPR, they were tipped as heavy favourites to take all three points from the fixture. However, the feat more difficult than anyone would have expected and Mancini’s men were put to the test.
Although Mark Hughes’ men were down to 10-men and even gave away the lead to City, they managed to fight their way into the match. After they found the equalizer, they even managed to go into the lead against the expectations of anyone.
As the match reached its conclusion, QPR led City with a lead of 2 goals to 1.
With 5 minutes of added time being given by the fourth official, many believed that a comeback by City would be impossible. However, the Blues came out strong as two late goals in stoppage time clinched the silverware for them.
Even though Manchester City are the new champions of England, Ronaldo has maintained that United would still remain the team to beat in the Premier League.
While talking to reporters, the 27-year-old quoted:
"I saw a few days ago (City scored) two goals in the last minute, 91 and 93. I had a bet that Manchester United would win the league but I lost," "I feel very disappointed because United is still in my heart.
"City have a fantastic team now, but I think Manchester (United) will carry on being king of England in my opinion."
Heavy spenders, Manchester City, have finally managed to win the Premier League title after a long long time. Can they continue this run? It will be very interesting to find out.
