Nations League: How Portugal head coach Jorge Jesus disrespected Ronaldo - Sneijder
Nations League: How Portugal head coach Jorge Jesus disrespected Ronaldo - Sneijder

Former Netherlands midfielder, Wesley Sneijder, has claimed that Portugal head coach Jorge Jesus disrespected Cristiano Ronaldo by asking him to warm up and not introducing him as a substitute.

The incident happened during a UEFA Nations League game against Croatia.

Ronaldo furiously left the national team camp after that match and has recently announced his retirement.

Sneijder said, "Cristiano Ronaldo has been disrespected by Portugal!

"He [Jorge Jesus] should have never let this moment [Ronaldo warming up and getting benched again] happen.

"You can't let this happen with a player like Cristiano Ronaldo.

"He should have sat down with Cristiano before the games took place and tell him: 'Listen, I actually prefer not to play you.' At least be honest."
