Ronaldo's Road to Fame (2)
2022-12-31 13:01In the past ten years, Ronaldo and Messi have been the spokespersons of football, and they are the incomparable peerless twins. Perhaps most people have forgotten that he once came from the hail of bullets, faced the ridicule and blank eyes of countless people, and stepped to the top of football step by step.
In the summer transfer window of 2003, the 18-year-old Ronaldo joined Manchester United from Sporting Lisbon, becoming the first Portuguese player in the history of the Red Devils. In the same year, he was selected for the Portuguese national team and fought side by side with his elder brother Figo. At that time, he was not called Ronaldo, and everyone was more used to calling him Ronaldinho.
There were alien Ronaldo and Brazilian genius Ronaldinho in football back then. Compared with these brilliant names, the little-known Ronaldo is like an accessory of the same name.
In Portugal, his status has surpassed his predecessor Figo and has become the representative image of the country. In 2016, he led the not so outstanding national team to overcome difficulties all the way, won the first European Cup in team history, and fulfilled his dream.
Luo Sanpiao becomes Golden Ball King
In 2011, Cristiano Ronaldo scored 53 goals for Real Madrid in 54 games. Facing the thriving Barcelona, he helped the Blancos win the Copa del Rey. He thought he was the best player in the world, but the Ballon d'Or that year hit him hard.
Messi won the Ballon d'Or with 38 votes, but he only got three votes to win the Bronze Ball . He was ridiculed by the fans as Luo Sanpiao who was overreaching.
The defeat of the golden ball became his motivation instead. In the next year, Ronaldo scored 60 goals and won the league championship trophy after many years with Real Madrid. In the next ten years, he won four Ballon d'Ors, competing with Messi for the limelight. He ruled the Ballon d'Or for ten years and wrote a myth in the history of the Ballon d'Or.
