15 WC goals, and 14 UCL goals, Wow, injuries really did a number on R9's career, and even with the countless injuries, he is still considered a legend of the sport; He truly was O Fenômeno on the pitch.
To think a player of his caliber only scored 14 goals in the CL is insane, but he was unlucky with injuries and played in a time where it was more difficult to qualify
this! he was injured for almost 2 years when he was in his prime, from 11/1999 to 09/2001. and even though he managed to get Ballon d'Or in 2002, which is still remarkable.
4:37 my favourite ever. Dragging the ball with the trailing foot to past the defender is just something I never seen before. I'm glad he wasn't fit in 98/99 otherwise we would't win the treble. Zidane with Ronaldo didn't win UCL, but he had a second chance and got another Ronaldo, the rest is history.
Those Madrid teams massively underachieved. It was like as if, the players were doing magic and working hard but for nothing. I think the ever changing managers and tactics might have played a big role, but most importantly the lack of defensive midfielder. As Zidane said himself about Makelele and Beckham, "why put another gold plate onto the Bentley when you take away the whole engine". That was why Barca and Valencia beat them to titles, they worked their ass off and everyone played a role.

He was a completely different player before that horrific knee injury at Inter Milan. To this day, I have never seen a faster more extreme dribbler with a football.

pity he wasn't playing in the UCL when he was at his peak at Barca and Inter first season. He would have scored a lot more goals. Injuries and all prevented him from playing more games
Certainly not the phenomenon. These goals are pretty ordinary compared to R9. Ronaldo in his prime like, dodging 2-3 players with ankle breaking footwork in the midfield region, beat 2 defenders with sheer speed, tread mark step-over to make the keeper go opposite direction and then a gentle push in the empty net. UCL is unlucky not to experience the prime R9.
Some quality goals in this clip still. Tho I have to comment, you speak as if all of his goals in his early years were like that lol. A lot of his goals even then were goals like in this clip.

@@renatovillatoro4746 Do you expect him to change the world in 6 CL matches ?!? In 99 for example he only played 1 match vs eventual winners Man United.
