Miranda: Ronaldo must learn respect

Atletico Madrid defender Miranda believes Cristiano Ronaldo has to learn to show his opponents more respect.

Ronaldo netted two penalties in Real Madrid's 4-1 win over Atletico last weekend, and was on the receiving end of a number of rough challenges in the match.

And earlier in the week, Ronaldo engaged in a heated war of words with Atletico president Enrique Cerezo, and Miranda now believes the Portuguese international needs to learn some manners.

"I think that to be more complete, Ronaldo needs to be humble," Miranda said on Kajuro Pergunta.

"He has [good] qualities, but he has to respect his opponents, he needs to know when it is time to provoke a situation."

And Miranda believes Barcelona's Lionel Messi is the perfect example Ronaldo should follow.

"Messi is, for me, the best because, first of all, he respects his opponents, even when he is scoring, making a play or dissenting.

"He does not humiliate."

Atletico host Rayo Vallecano on Sunday, while Real visit Sporting Gijon a day before.
