Open Letter to Cristiano Ronaldo.
To the man who inspired billions of people all across the world, a beacon of Hope and an inspiration for generations. I am going to make this short.
You will forever be the Greatest Human to kick a ball and nothing will ever change that.
A total of 471 players have won the World Cup. Only one player has scored over 975 goals.
A seven game tournament will never decide who the GOAT is, it will always be Cristiano Ronaldo. Yesterday, today and forever.
Mbappe this, Haaland that. I’m sorry, but my love for Ronaldo dies with him. Once he retires, that’s a wrap. No player can capture my heart like that ever again. I’m sure of it.
🚨🚨
🇵🇹 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 has been the hardest part about playing in a World Cup at the age of 41?”
🇵🇹 CRISTIANO:
“The hardest part is talking to some of you—especially those who don’t like me.
And you’re one of them. I know that.” (laughs) 😂
“I never forget faces. I only need to see someone once, and their face stays in my memory.
As for playing at 41, I think it’s been a great experience because reaching this level requires sacrificing many things.
What I’ve done throughout my career is adapt to the changes that come with age, while knowing that I’m no longer the same player I used to be. But one thing 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, and that’s what matters most.
What remains in the memory is qualifying, playing against a great national team, and it would be wonderful if we could beat Spain tomorrow.”
