Shaqiri for Ronaldo: You can't pay him off, he's one of the best.

The Swiss are preparing for a 1/16 match at the 2022 World Cup with star-filled rivals Portugal.

On the eve of that confrontation, the Swiss side, Shaqiri, also commented on, getting to defend the criticism of Ronaldo.

Shaqiri admits it would be foolish to ignore five times the Golden Ball winner. According to him Ronaldo is one of the best, and he can score a goal every second, every minute.

“Can't pay off Cristianon, he's one of the best players in the world along with (Leonel) Messin. This guy can mark every second, every minute, he's got experience and everyone knows how important he is to Portugal and his team”, were his words according to APUGoal.

Zvicerani also spoke of other players, who, according to him, can make the difference.

“We need to get to know the other players because it's not just Ronaldo, they have very good players, young players who can make a big difference and we need to give a really very good performance, because it's knockout and everything can happen in 95-100 minutes and we're looking forward to it.

Switzerland will face Portugal on Tuesday, starting at 8:00.
