Swiss striker Breel Embolo praised Portuguese captain Cristiano Ronaldo ahead of the face-off between the teams in the round of 16 of the World Cup in Qatar.
I think Ronaldo is a source of inspiration not only for forwards, but for all athletes. He enriches our era. One can only learn from him, both as a player and as a person. It's an honor to compete against him.
