The Portuguese star of the Real Madrid, Cristiano Ronaldo, complained of the patadas received against the Ludogorets affirming that they seemed gone in "of rugby". The player of rugby Fermín of the Street has written him a letter to clear him some things

In the last days, has made public through the social networks a letter written according to "MD" by the journalist and player of rugby Fermín of the Street, that has wanted reprender to Cristiano Ronaldo by his "unlucky statements" of the past week when it compared the patadas that received by part of some players of the Ludogorets with which give in the world of the rugby, when the pure reality is that it treats of an aggressive sport and of contact, "but never violent". This is the letter that has written Fermín of the Street to Cristiano Ronaldo to clear him some things that, very probably, the Portuguese forward desconocía up to now.

Whole letter:

"Estimated Christian:

I write you this letter in quality of player of rugby. The past Wednesday made, to my seem, some unlucky statements when warning after the conclusion of a party, ?That in place of football seemed rugby" because a rival gave you a patada by behind without possibility to play to the balloon. It wanted to clear you that in the rugby is terminantemente forbidden patear to a rival and that any type of aggression is sanctioned with the direct expulsion. Also it would say you that the player expelled, in addition to being sanctioned by his club and by the statutory committee, apologises in the changing room to his mates when finalising the meeting for leaving them in inferiority and mortgage the work of all the week. For us the parties play between week (in the trainings) and the weekend pose the essays.

The rugby is a sport of contact, hard and aggressive, but never violent. In the rugby exist some codes of honourable behaviour that all respect escrupulosamente, by what never will see to a player of rugby simulate a fault or an aggression. It is used to say that the only lie that is allowed to a player of rugby is the one who says to the doctor to be still in the field. This weekend a player received a hit in the face, split him the cheekbone and followed playing during an hour so that his team did not remain in inferiority.

You will have seen that our T-shirts carry dorsal, that indicate the position in the field, but no the name, because it is not important the one who dress this T-shirt. The important is that the one who the sight ?It do his work, only his work, but all his work?. Therefore when we annotate an essay anybody celebrates it signalling his name, celebrate it with the mates, the culprits that the balloon arrive us always in the best conditions. Therefore we do not deliver Balloons of Gold neither have pichichis. Besides we direct us to the referee calling him ?Gentleman?, only they speak with him the captains and never blame him of the defeat because we are conscious that we make a mistake more times that they.

I will say you that in the rugby impera the continuity, that the philosophy of game incide in that the ball always was alive. Therefore when you see a placaje, the placador loose to the placado when falling and the placado leaves the ball in the floor to free it. In the rugby the ball always has to be at stake so that at the end of the party fulfil the first mandamiento of our sport: always it wins the best. It pursues severely the anti-game and punishes with ejemplaridad, by what never will see players of rugby losing time or simulating injuries. In fact, it exists the figure of the change of blood, because the lesionado, once attended, goes back to the field by very aparatosa that it was the wound, to follow helping to his mates.

In the rugby the rival is opponent in the field and mate out of him. Never enemy because have in common a passion and a code of behaviour that respect further of the field. From here that in the rugby do corridor to the rival, win or lose, and share some beers in the third time after leaving us the skin in the field. By all this, Cristiano, think that your statement was unlucky, understand that by ignorance of our sport. From here I invite you to attend to a party of rugby where and when want to. You will be always welcome, you and any one. And, of course, you are invited to enjoy with us of some beers in the third time. Without more, health and rugby".
