Muito difícil escrever-te uma despedida nestes termos. Nada soa como deve ser, nem consegue transmitir o que fizeste por nós ou por mim, enquanto país, cidadãos ou jogadores/desportistas. Muito menos agradecer-te da forma devida.
É me inconcebível deixar-te ir assim e dizer apenas «vais fazer muita falta» ou “foste enorme, vamos ter muitas saudades”. Quando, na verdade, ganhaste o direito de continuar a fazer o que mais gostas, por quem gostas, onde gostas e durante quanto tempo quiseres.
Mas, claro está, não te posso deixar de dedicar algumas palavras num momento em que te despedes de uma carreira ao nível das seleções, onde vivi, provavelmente, um dos maiores prazeres da minha vida.
Para ser sincero, não sei o que será mais significativo para mim: ter representado Portugal ou ter partilhado contigo o balneário e tantos outros momentos.
Pode parecer excessivo, mas é esta a grandeza que vejo em ti. Porquê?
Talvez porque, quando cheguei ao Sporting (porque também tu foste lá formado, escolhido a dedo pelo Sr Aurélio Pereira), ainda miúdo, eras tu quem estava nas bocas do mundo, fosse no United ou já no Euro 2004. Tinha eu 9 anos!!!
Talvez porque, quando cheguei a profissional, no mesmo clube que tu, depois de 10/11 anos a ouvir falar de ti e a beber daquilo que tu bebeste, enquanto conquistavas inúmeros troféus individuais e coletivos, como infinitas Bolas de Ouro e Champions, percebi o quão difícil e incrível era chegar onde eu tinha chegado.
Talvez porque, quando te conheci, ao contrário do que acontece com muita gente, percebi o quão inteligente, ambicioso, humildade q.b. e diferente és. E aceitei perfeitamente isso, assim como todos os teus defeitos. Defeitos esses que também te ajudaram a ser o melhor de sempre.
Talvez porque começaste a jogar futebol antes de mim, eu já estou nos 30’s e tu continuas a jogar, a um nível incrivelmente bom. E mais de metade do mundo não faz ideia da dificuldade que isso representa e do que exige.
Talvez porque aquilo que fizeste e conquistaste nunca tinha sido visto por nenhum ser humano no mundo, muito menos por um português.
E, há pouco, falei de Bolas de Ouro e Champions com uma leviandade e normalidade que não são, nunca foram, supostas ou sequer reais. Com isso, fizeste-me a mim e a milhões de portugueses falar, acreditar e viver o futebol e a vida de uma forma completamente distinta de tudo o que, até então, tinha sido possível.
Fizeste-nos sonhar com coisas desde o teu primeiro Europeu com a Seleção. Tinha eu 9 anos!!!!! Como é possível sequer?
E, novamente, talvez porque, ano após ano, sendo ora o 1.º, ora o 2.º melhor do mundo, estiveste sempre lá em cima, sustentado pela tua disciplina, arrogância necessária, crença e fé. Características com as quais me identifico bastante.
Por estes poucos “talvez”, agradeço-te muito por ter partilhado tantos momentos contigo, dentro e fora do campo! Por teres sido quem foste e és! E por me teres inspirado a ser melhor durante toda a minha vida.
Será sempre pouco dizer que vou sentir a tua falta dentro das quatro linhas… Mas, novamente, sou grato por ter vivido na mesma era que tu!
E, como tu dizias, daqui a 20/30 anos vou estar numa taberna qualquer a falar de ti e daquilo que te vi fazer. Com todo o gosto.
Obrigado Bicho ❤️

📸 - Sure, there is Maradona, there is Pele, there is Messi.
But at the end of the day, this generation of players is only thinking about ONE PLAYER as their inspiration, and that's CRISTIANO RONALDO! ✨

Messi has been playing in America for 4 years but it’s Ronaldo’s influence we seeing in the NFL

I ask again…. Where are the team mates that Ronaldo was “arrogant” towards during the course of his career???
Because every Ex-teammate kept saying THE SAME THING about him being HUMBLE, HARDWORKING, FRIENDLY and all.
Mehn, the media really took a toll on @Cristiano Ronaldo’s career. JESUS! 🤦🏻♂️
🇧🇷🗣️ Douglas Costa:
"With Cristiano Ronaldo on the pitch, you can guarantee 30 goals.
But it wasn't just about him joining the team; from the first day I wore the Juventus shirt until my last day there, I always believed we could win the Champions League.
And of course, Ronaldo's presence boosted our chances of achieving that; once he arrived, a lot of things changed.
He's a player who constantly strives to improve, and a very humble person, so I was very happy when he came.
And for me, as a winger, did I feel I had to send crosses into the box for him? No, I didn't see it that way.
He was very humble, and all he wanted was to score, and of course, always win.
It was a great honour to play alongside him and to be part of the career of such an exceptional player.
I created some goals for him with my assists, a memory and a story I will tell for the rest of my life."

Al retirarse de su selección:
Pelé había ganado el 50% de los títulos de Brasil, Maradona el 11%, Messi el 18% y Cristiano el 100%.
Si, nadie tuvo tanto impacto como Cristiano en una selección y mucho más siendo pequeña como Portugal.

"If I ever made you happy, if any of my goals ever made you hug someone, forget a worry, or feel proud, then it was all worth it."

Ronaldo lost his father and still chose to remain at the Portuguese camp.
He survived a life-threatening car crash and went straight back to training.
He lost his child and still found the strength to step onto the pitch for Manchester United.
The world mocked him after Portugal’s World Cup exit, yet he returned to represent his country at the next World Cup.
I watched him win the Champions League back to back to back. I watched him crash out of the World Cup in tears. Somehow, through all those moments, he took me along on his journey through life.
He taught me, time and time again, that it’s never okay to give up.
He makes you appreciate both the highs and the lows. He reminds you that it’s okay to cry, it’s okay to be angry, it’s okay to be sad, but it’s never okay to give up.
I remember the last trophy he won with Portugal, the Nations League. When almost every odd was against him, he found a way to rise again. He reminded me, one more time, of exactly who he was.
He lives life on his own terms and accepts the consequences of his decisions with his full chest. He speaks his mind, whether you agree with him or not. He walks away when he feels disrespected. He stands firm on his principles, believes in fair competition and remains loyal to those who have shown him loyalty.
He came from nothing and built a legacy that will outlive him.
Heavily misunderstood, but never doubted. He has been called a narcissist, an egotist and everything in between, but never a cheat. Everything he has achieved, he has earned. Every record, every trophy, every accolade. He did it on the pitch.
“Ronaldo is old. He needs to retire.”
“He’s slowing the team down.”
“His goals are hurting the team.”
And so much more.
The very metrics used to celebrate others are often the same ones used to discredit him. But perhaps that’s understandable. The umbrella becomes a burden when it stops raining.
That’s the legacy of this man.
What I feel for Ronaldo goes far beyond football. He embodies what a role model should be. Strip away the goals, the awards, the records and the trophies, and there will still be something worth admiring.
I have watched the highs, the lows, the tears, the celebrations, the criticism and the comebacks. Through it all, he has reminded me that greatness isn’t just about how high you rise, but how many times you find the strength to rise again.
Thank you for being part of my story. Thank you for the memories, the lessons and for showing me what resilience looks like.
That’s why he is my number one.
The greatest there is, the greatest there was, and the greatest there will ever be.
In this life and the next. Always. ❤️🐐👑

Like Luis figo said:
🗣️: “Put young Ronaldo in this current Portuguese squad and he wouldn’t need anyone to score goals for Portugal”
Sirr Hero retweeted
🥹🚨🇵🇹🗣 This Portuguese woman has said it all. I wish more Portuguese people would acknowledge Cristiano Ronaldo in this way. Sadly, many seem ungrateful and do not deserve the great man they have:
"This great player we have is also a human being, a man of immense humanity. Most people have no idea how much he does for others. He helps so many people, including so many children.
Therefore, this is the time for us Portuguese to appreciate what we have rather than take it for granted. Otherwise, the Portuguese Football Federation loses, the players lose and Portugal loses.
Because Ronaldo will always, always, always remain in the hearts of the Portuguese people and those children who present little drawings of Cristiano Ronaldo and send him kisses.
That is something separate."

God really ate when he created Men. They left their homes to eat cookies that are almost expired just to support a total stranger.
Men showing up for men and women like the savior of the world. You just must love men.
