Tottenham Hotspur head coach Antonio Conte waxed lyrical about Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo ahead of the two sides going head-to-head at Old Trafford on Wednesday evening.
Ronaldo, who will be aiming to fire Portugal to World Cup glory in Qatar next month, scored four goals against Spurs last season, including a hat-trick in the 3-2 win United recorded at Old Trafford in March. He was sensational that day, putting Conte's side to the sword.
This season, however, the 37-year-old has struggled to get into any sort of rhythm, starting just twice in the Premier League. He started Sunday's goalless draw with Newcastle United but was taken off with just under 20 minutes left to play and replaced by Marcus Rashford.
