Ashley Williams "not obsessing" over Cristiano Ronaldo

Williams "not obsessing" over Ronaldo

Wales captain Ashley Williams has insisted that his side are not focusing all of their attention on Cristiano Ronaldo ahead of their Euro 2016 semi-final against Portugal.

Ronaldo is the star attraction of the Portugal side having made more international appearances and scored more goals than any other player in his country's history.

However, Williams stressed that Portugal are more than a one-man team and insists that his side will look to cope with all of their players rather than looking solely at Ronaldo.

"He's one of the greatest players in the world, but they have other weapons in their team," he told reporters.

"We are not obsessing over that. We'll try and nullify them as a team, as we have all tournament."

Wales will be appearing in the semi-finals of a major tournament for the first time ever when they travel to Lyon on Wednesday.
