A Story of Cristiano Ronaldo ..
"I have to thank my old friend Albert Fantrau for my succes.We played together for the same team in the U-18 championship.When Sporting Lisbon's manager came to see us he said that : "Who score's more goals will come in our academy".
"We won that match 3-0.I scored the first goal then Albert scored the second with a great header.But the third goal was impressive for all of us.Albert was 1 on 1 against the goalkeeper , he skilled the goalkeeper and i was running in front of him.All he has to do was to score but he passed to me and i scored the third goal , so i went to the Sporting Lisbon academy.After the match i met him and i said to him Why ? .. he said that "You are better than me" ..
"Many journalists went to Albert's house and asked him if it was a true story.He said yes.He also said that his career as a player after the match ended and now is unemployed."But how did you build this house so great, you have a car? You seem like a rich man. You also keep your family .. From where did this come from? 'Albert more proudly replied: "It is by Ronaldo!

Just came across this story on the internet. First time I have ever came across this story, so apologies if you have seen this before.
Just imagine if Albert Fantrau scored, we might of never seen C.Ronaldo. What a miss to football that would of been. Ronaldo is seen as arrogant person and has a big ego, to some extent on the pitch that is true, however I think he is a great man off the pitch. I don't think people fully appreciate what a great player he is especially rival fans.
I was taking a break from revision and watching youtube. Ronaldo scored so many different types of goals, he has no weaknesses to his attacking game. Watching it though made me wish he still played for us. Such a great player.

Albert seems a bit lazy. He could at least get a job!

great story
Really made no difference for Ronaldo though. He was born great and would have made it to where he is now regardless.
feel bad for the other bloke

This is obviously not true, what kinda premier standard team would choose a player in this fashion?
Maybe it's been fantasised in order to help Ronaldo in his battle against Messi... Who knows...
