Jorge Jesus reacts to the retirement of @CristianoRonaldos from international football. "Cristiano is a global icon, an example for Portugal and the national team. “I put a huge picture of him in our auditorium so all the young players can look at him every day. "I asked him to continue with me because I needed him by my side. "But I have to accept his decision. "He will always have a place in the hearts of the Portuguese people. "He will always be a symbol of Portuguese football."
