His contributions to the team have been quite helpful, however, they have struggled to keep their head above water this season, which has seen them lose out on the champions league competition. There is a saying that goes “a tree cannot make a forest”, which implies that Ronaldo’s effort is not enough to rescue the team from their current woes, as football is a game that thrives on collective performance.
Despite being advanced in age, Ronaldo has continued to prove naysayers wrong by still performing exceptionally well. He is a beauty to watch, as on many occasions he still gives those magical touches on the field to the admiration of football fans.
The Portuguese superstar has been renowned for his remarkable physical condition throughout his career and even at 37 years old, he is still one of the highest performing athletes in the game.
Despite being in the twilight of his footballing career, he still performs like a youngster. His discipline, dedication, and passion for success have seen him inspire so many youngsters who want to emulate his lifestyle. The five-time Ballon d’Or winner continues to defy his age with a strict lifestyle and diet which has helped to keep him in shape.
At his age, most professional players have either retired or are considering doing so, but this is not the case with Ronaldo, as he has not shown any sign of slowing down yet. His unique physique has helped in ensuring that he stays fit for the sport which has seen him put a lot of work behind the scenes.
Ronaldo is all about a healthy lifestyle, recall his anti-Coca-Cola stunt at the European Championships where he has to swap the Coca-Cola placed in front of him during a press conference with water. He has on several occasions revealed his plans to continue playing football at the age of 42, which means there is no stopping anytime soon for the Portuguese star.
During his medical at Juventus when he arrived at the club from Real Madrid in 2018, the doctors revealed that despite Ronaldo being advanced in age, he had the physical capabilities of a 20-year-old. Amazing!
He is one player that deserves huge credit for what he has done to the game of football and his exceptional contributions to the teams he has played for.
