Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the most comprehensive strikers in the history of football. He started his career as a winger rich in speed and technique, but later on, the terrifying goalscoring qualities of the human superstar became apparent. Portugal is even more exposed. That’s why Ronaldo is one of the great goalscorers at this time.
Therefore, it is not surprising that Ronaldo is still a great role model for the world’s top strikers to learn from, and one of them is Erling Haaland. In terms of skill set, Haaland is not inferior to Ronaldo and is even considered better than his senior as he has more impressive physique and strength. However, there is one weakness where the Norwegian striker certainly loses a lot, which is aerial combat situations even though he is nearly 10 centimeters taller than Ronaldo.
However, Haaland has significantly improved this this season, the frequency of the Norwegian player scoring headers has increased. Not surprisingly, the player born in 2000 said he learned that from Ronaldo.
“I always watch Cristiano on YouTube about his movements in the penalty area. He usually makes two or three moves before entering the space he wants. Then he directly disputes with the players. centre-back. It’s important to have perfect timing. But it also depends on the player crossing the ball.” – Haaland shared with TV2.
In addition to choosing positions, Ronaldo also made his brand with jumping situations that are even more impressive than basketball stars. That will also be the goal that Erling Haaland tries to improve in the near future.
