Norwegian forward Joshua King has made surprising comments on his opponent in his last match.
"I think I did very well against one of the best centre-backs in the world", the striker commented. "Ramos is famous for being dirty and hard, but I don't remember coming across a friendlier centre-back than him."
The Bournemouth star said that it had been "fun" to play against a star of Ramos' calibre,
"I've not seen most of his games, but I think all of his tackles were clean and he seemed a good sport. He one some duels and I won others. It was a good game", he said after his side's 2-1 defeat to Spain.
King notched his 13th goal for Norway during the game, a penalty which seemed to have earned his side a draw. Ramos and David de Gea said things to the forward to try and put him off, but to no avail.
"It was a shame that we played a little below our usual level towards the end and lost the game for ourselves," King concluded.
