Ronaldo defends underfire AC Milan striker Balotelli

Inter Milan hero Ronaldo has jumped to the defence of Mario Balotelli.

The AC Milan striker has been largely blamed for Italy's dismal World Cup.

"Mario Balotelli? He's still young, I do not think it is right that he is the only one to be blamed for this, nor even the main one," said Ronaldo.
