Cristiano Ronaldo reveals why he will never exchange shirts with Roma players

Juventus superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has revealed that he was threatened by Roma players during his time at Manchester
United. The Portuguese’s revelations come as the Turin-based club prepare to face Roma in Serie A on Saturday, December 22nd.
Back in 2007, Roma travelled to Old Trafford for the second leg of their UEFA Champions League quarterfinal against Manchester United. With a 2-1 lead from the first leg, the home side went in as the slight favourites.
However, as it turned out, the Red Devils managed by Sir Alex Ferguson hammered Roma 7-1 to romp into the semifinals of the competition. Ronaldo was the star on the day as he scored a brace.
11 years after the incident, though, the now-Juventus star has revealed how Roma players threatened to hurt him. He added that the Rome-based club players had even ‘begged’ him to stop dribbling. Because of that incident, Ronaldo has refused to swap shirts with a Roma player.
“When it was 6-0, they asked me to stop, an opponent begged me to stop dribbling,” he said.
“Others threatened to hurt me. Roma? There is no player with whom I would exchange a shirt.”
Juventus welcome Roma for their 17th league macth of the season. The Bianconeri are sitting pretty at the top of the table with 46 points in 16 matches, whereas Roma are struggling with only 24 points and are currently seventh in the league.

THE MASCARENE PARROT

The Mascarene parrot was 35 cm (14 in) in length with a large red bill and long, rounded tail feathers. Its legs were red, and it had naked red skin around the eyes and nostrils. It had a black facial mask and partially white tail feathers, but the colouration of the body, wings and head is unclear. Descriptions from life indicate the body and head were ash grey, and the white part of the tail had two dark central feathers. In contrast, descriptions based on stuffed specimens state that the body was brown and the head bluish but do not mention the dark central tail feathers. This may be due to the specimens having changed colour as a result of aging and exposure to light, as well as other forms of damage. Very little is known about the bird in life. The Mascarene parrot was first mentioned in 1674, and live specimens were later brought to Europe, where they lived in captivity . The species was scientifically described in 1771. Only two stuffed specimens exist today, in Paris and Vienn...
