Lewandowski praises Ronaldo for maintaining top form at 39

Polish star striker Robert Lewandowski has praised Cristiano Ronaldo for maintaining the passion and desire for football at 39 years old and being an inspiration to many. "I fully acknowledge what Cristiano Ronaldo has accomplished throughout his career and how he's made history with his records. That will be etched in football forever," Lewandowski told beIN SPORTS.

Lazio enjoyed a dream start to their first UEFA Europa League campaign since 2022/23, strolling to a 3-0 win against Dynamo Kyiv in Hamburg.
