Cristiano Ronaldo (joking):
“Give the microphone to that young guy standing in front of you, the one who doesn’t like me. I want to see if he’ll ask me a good question.
That one… yes, yes, you. Him. I know he doesn’t like me.”
Journalist:
“Cristiano, how are you? It’s great to speak with you. I’d like to ask: what’s the hardest part about playing in a World Cup at 41 years old?”
Cristiano Ronaldo:
“The hardest part is talking to some of you journalists, especially the ones who don’t like me.
And you’re one of them. I know that.” (laughs)
“I never forget faces. I only have to see someone once, and their face stays in my memory.
As for playing at 41, I think it’s been a good experience because reaching this level requires you to sacrifice a lot of things.
Throughout my career, what I’ve done is adapt to the changes that come with age, while understanding that I’m no longer the same player I used to be. But there’s one thing that hasn’t changed: I still score goals.
So I hope I score tomorrow. And if I don’t, then I hope one of my teammates does, because we need to qualify, that’s what matters most.
What people remember is qualifying, playing against a great team, and it would be wonderful if we could beat Spain tomorrow.”
🚨Luis Figo on Joao Neves saying Cristiano Ronaldo is just an ordinary player like the rest of his Portugal teammates and Bruno Fernandes dropping a like under his Instagram post.
🗣️ First of all I respect Cristiano Ronaldo for all he's done for our country all these years. He's a Portuguese legend and loved by everyone but I question his leadership abilities.
In Euro 2004 I was still playing for the national team coach along with Deco. Cristiano Ronaldo was the youngest player in the squad. Everyone treated him with love and respect despite being older than him. We saw his abilities on the pitch we gave him passes to do the dirty job.
Today he's above 40 and still playing for the national team. I expected him to play with little selfishness. Against Dr Congo, Bruno Fernandes was in a better position to score. He was calling for him to pass the ball but he shot instead and failed to convert.
I saw many Portuguese citizens blaming Bruno Fernandes for dividing the team but that's not the issue. Cristiano Ronaldo as the Oldest player needs to unite the dressing room with Roberto Martinez.
If you look at the Argentina national team,you will see all the players treating Lionel Messi with respect including the coaches. This isn't because he won 8 Ballon D'ors,no! he's down to the Earth. He knows how to keep his teammates happy on and off the pitch.
Everyone in the Argentina team can sacrifice anything to see him happy because he treats them like a family and not strangers. Cristiano Ronaldo should learn from that. You can have the talent but Character is very important in every field of life.
Before you die,make sure of one thing tell your children and the next generation that you saw tht time with ur own eyes.When an eighty-six-year-old man stood alone, fighting for the brotherhood of Muslims.While many so-called Islamic countries were drowned in luxury and silence.
