Cristiano Ronaldo: Ascending to Greatness
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 фев 2022
- With a huge talent and big ambitions, that's how Cristiano Ronaldo started his footballing career like many other players. But, talent alone is never enough. It must be accompanied by several key factors: Hard work, self-confidence, and a strong personality. This is the story Cristiano Ronaldo's beginnings, and how he ascended to the pinnacle of Football.
From the islands of Madeira and in particular the capital Funchal, to the capital of Portugal Lisbon with Sporting, until his arrival to England with Manchester United. Watch how a young Cristiano Ronaldo developed his talent through these chapters of his footballing life and how he overcame some troubles both on and off the pitch on his way to win many titles like the English Premier League, the Champions League, the FA cup, and most importantly for him the Ballon d'Or.
All of this and more can be seen in this long and packed episode.

You support a rapist and show him as a role model to the world
And you ask for people's support??
Shameful.
YESSSSSS
Time for Leo. Make it epic

"He came as a kid and left as the best player in the world".
~Rio Ferdinand.
Leaving as a kid and leaving everything you knew. It’s HARD….
If he left as the best player in the world then why did Messi dunk on him in the 09 final 😂
@@Illuso07 don't act as stupid, Iam taking about player achivements and you are bringing Barcelona into this?
@@TheSiuuguy I’m just stating a fact that Messi was the best player in the world when Ronaldo left United, don’t start crying it’s a fact
@@Illuso07 why should i cry broh? I know who my Goat is...and i don't need others opinion.. learn to respect others opinion.
His self-confidence and strong personality make him unique.
Yeah
I agree, totally.
Playing for the best domestic club teams at the time worked wonders attaining all those club titles. Never big enough for Portugal 🇵🇹 & a WC🏆💯
@@Jay-Jay_007has nothing to do with this person's comment, there are amazing players who never got to compete in a world cup.
I think the level of coaching is underrated in this video
Sir Alex: "He's a winger"
Carlos Queiroz: "When he's 29 he'll become one of best strikers"
They were both right, fairplay
And to think this man was once criticized for his end product. Hardwork pays off.
@@Yeahagreed Exactly, the criticism was fair and he didn't cry about it
@@RafaelSantos-di5yw the way the young idiotic English players do now at man united
good point
Carlos Queiroz deserves more recognition, when Ronaldo played in 2010 World Cup and turned against Carlos Queiroz, that wasn't a beautiful sight.. seeing this documentary, made me realize even more how unfair Ronaldo, and Portugal in general, was to Queiroz.
My goodness what a well-narrated documentary. Honestly, Ronaldo’s success wouldn’t have happened if he went elsewhere. He chose the right club, with the right tutelage and the right pressure of winning. If you want to succeed as a footballer, read and understand the journey of Ronaldo.
Lot of players of his generation failed to live up their expectation: Jose Reyes, Ricardo Quaresma, Joaquin Sanchez, Vicente, Aaron Lennon. Mostly because they picked the wrong club.
Well said
Brilliant stuff! Already knew the story, but your editing and story telling are worth a refresher.
YOOOOOOO!
My man!
We all know the story. We are here for the quality of the material
Great channel recognises great channel love to see it
Return to your dungeon, make us more videos :real:.
But seriously both of you make excellent content I hope you both continue the beautifel work you do.
You have to appreciate the level of detail Don Balon goes to make these documentaries. Even some big studios would struggle to match this kind of work. Well done!!

Well I mean he prob doesn’t do this by himself
Still other channels done earlier videos about Cristiano Ronaldo career, that I have watched few years ago to already know Cristiano Ronaldo life story. This video missed that he once as kid threw stone to some window and once as 14 year old threw chair to his teacher, but I did knew he was from Madeira, made fun off in Lisabon from his accent, played as 17 years old in Sporting CP, unitil as 18 year old Alex Fergusson decided to buy him and then he knew he year by year became better at Manchester United, when got older and wom Champions League in 2008 and then won Champions League four times in Real Madrid, so I already knew preatty well Ronaldo, but this was still intresting video about his life story.
These transfer stuff with how much each club ready to buy Ronaldo for, when Ronaldo was 18 year old I did not know, when so many clubs intrested, when I just knew Ronaldo went to Manchster United as 18 year old from Sporting CP in 2003.
no one cares
It's very rare to find a player that joins an incredible raw talent with immense work rate and a winning mentality. Truly one of the greatest players of all time.
love how Sir alex handed the legendary number 7 to Ronaldo. He trusted him from the first start, He was a father figure. :) Thank you so much... this is the best documentary of Cr7
His progression was so unreal, how much he improved in the 2006/07 season was his major turning point
Became the best ever during WC 2006 and his life and career changed after that
a teenager having contracts and making big bucks! his passion for the game, his hard work and commitment for such a young kid...changed the life of his family while the father is irresponsible!
Messi was born with a talent. But Cristiano built himself with hard work to be the best. That's why Ronaldo will always be the GOAT.
@@Roberto-nj5yr Messi has physical issue, and ronaldo?
@@soccer.tube.official That 'messi has Physical issue' is all PR.
The best documentary about Cristiano Ronaldo's career hands down! 🏆🥇
Its a good overall intro to his career. But there is a lot of analysis error
For example ronaldos first years at united. He was just dribbling winger. Not much scorer. He dribbling was causing insane danger and made united very dangerous
Ronaldo did make a lot of key pass after dribbling. Tried descent attempt. Or obtained freekick/penalty for the team
Saying ronaldo was just a toxic show off dribblier is very wrong. When he dribbled most of time united win something of it
Van nuesteroy hated ronaldo cause he wanted to people to only focus on giving him tap in pass instead of making team win
@@mathewvanostin7118 and whatever u mentioned as analysis error, i find balon has covered all those info up in the video...
yeah, this was just the intro part true, but hands down the best documentary on ronaldo's initial career
Cristiano's physical appearance since a kid prior joining Man Utd is the definition of "You're not ugly, you're just poor"
after all that struggle, failure, injuries, hardwork and self-confidence
HE IS THE WORLD's No. 1 PLAYER IN THE HISTORY OF FOOTBALL
🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
Nah it's Messi
In ur own opinion
No professional player or coach has ever said that, I’ve only ever heard professional coaches and players say that about Messi and maradona
I have to point out how incredible the Sporting academy is. So many great players started there.
Young kids won't know how different CR7 was in Manchester back in the 2000's.
How would you rate La masia (barca's academy) wrt. Sporting academy?
@@VinayKumar-zb9mc ajax miles ahead
@@VinayKumar-zb9mc you know who the most inffluenced player for la masia ? it's paul scholes
His storytelling is next level
The struggle is Real and Unbelievable. His Career was full of challenges. Even after the United period, he joins the battle against Messi. This documentary shows the braveness of Ronaldo that he didn't gave up after all the odds and Here we have The Greatest Player Ever. Cristiano Ronaldo ❤️
ofc he didtn give up only weak men give up
But pessi dog is ovarated 🤣
@@ZyzzGaming-rh6fd PESSI DOGS😂
Messi better 😂
@@reeksNA funny
Ronaldo - never had it easy... What a fighter he is 🙏
He always knew he had something to fight for
is there a part 2 in the making?
since his story at Madrid (for me) is one of the most epic tales of perseverance in sports
from being so close to the CL finals 5 years in a row to absolutely dominating europe 5 years in a row
Edit: Fantastic Video, as always
Yep' but not now after Cristiano Retired😥
He stole the video he didn't make it himself
@@abdlhakchouayt7694 from where?
@@abdlhakchouayt7694 no he didn’t
@@abdlhakchouayt7694 the style of video is exactly how he usually edits. Unless you’re talking about the original version of this vid made in Arabic
His style of dribbling was so fast and expressive it was like dancing but he a drive of attack.If Brazil 🇧🇷 had samba than Portugal 🇵🇹 had cristiano “fado” style
مسوي اجنبي
While watching this video I couldn't help but notice the similarities between CR7 and Vini Jr early career and transformation, I hope Vini can reach such heights
Exactly
If he's stays major injury free he will
You do know Ronaldo already got a major injury in 2014... That's the reason you don't see him doing those knuckle ball free kicks anymore. He needed to rest for some months to be healed. But he didn't and played in the 2014 wc. So he never fully recovered from that injury. But bc of how good he adapt himself. No one would think that he ever got a major Injury. Thx for reading
"Wreath in red
Restored to this great gallery of the game
A walking work of art
Vintage beyond valuation beyond forgery or imitation

first tiptoed onto this storied stage
Now in his immaculate maturity
CR7 reunited"
- Peter Drury
This work will last for years, even it's one of the most known stories but the quality of this documentary is "unbelievable" (christiano's favorite word in English).
Waiting for future work ♥️

It takes a lot to rise from just a random “good player with potential” to one of the best in history… Messi was clearly the better player in the early years but Ronaldo stepped up to reach that legendary level… what a player he is

Imagine a young Cristiano and Thierry Henry in the same team. Defenders would have nightmares.
Combine that with a young ashley Cole and you literally have the most terrifying left flank in football history. The worst thing about it that this could have happened, CR7 was in London to finalise a transfer until united came in the last minute with a greater bid.

To hard times in Manchester and the begining, to becoming the greatest goalscorer in football history is simply amazing. I cant imagine the amount of work of this man.
Cristiano is a legend! I'm watching all his matches ever since he returned back to Manchester United. This was a very cool documentary!
the whole process of developing his talent into something exceptional is something very hard to craft. very few people can develop such a long term vision and especially with regards to cristiano ronaldo, how people at utd showed patience and finally reaped the benefits.
That's it. Whatever your great is, you need to be constantly given chances and opportunities until you settle. Same thing happened with Messi, he took years to settle. Development is a process
I first got into football after seeing Cristiano in EURO 2004. My country is 100+ in FIFA rankings and football wasn't very big (it is slowly starting to change now). I know everything about Cristiano & because my family wasn't into football, I became a Cristiano fan. People can call me whatever they want, I don't care. As some people follow a club, I have followed this player for the past 18 years. Of course I have my local club in Estonia who's games I visit (FCI Levadia), but in world football, I follow Cristiano (& Mourinho). I knew "everything" about him already, but when you post a video, I have to watch it. I was surprised that there actually were a few things in this documentary that I didn't know before. The ending brought shivers down my spine. Your storytelling + finding out not very well-known facts is amazing. All the best to you Fahad & God bless you and your family! Absolutely fantastic! Greetings from Estonia.
Not his fan really but this man is an inspiration we all see the success the luxury, He knows all his struggles as he lived the journey from nowhere to everything he owns He trulely deserved it all
GOAT for a reason
Love from India❤
One of the best documentaries I’ve seen on Ronaldo, great job 👏🏻
He didn't received education...but there is a subject name cr7. This proves that how greatest he is.. There is no sports person in the world who is famous as him❤❤.
The three top things that made me CR7 fan is his perseverance, disciplined dedication and being a family man.
He’s a stud!! A lucky combination of both nature and nurture. He has accomplished as much as can be done by anyone. He seems happy and has legions of fans. Thanks for this video, I learned a lot from this engaging documentary.
He's very handsome and talented his son is handsome just like him and is training to be a footballer like his dad
As a Muslim, I strongly believe that CR7 Outstanding & Unbelievable success is greatly due to his love & grateful for his parents, especially his dearest Mom. As my prophet Muhammad (pbuh) had mentioned 3times "to place your mother first, then your mother, then again your mother. then only your father (before anyone else)",
Sat down intending to watch a few minutes…49 mins later I’m still here. Stunning documentary especially considering it’s been done independently. Lots I didn’t know as well. Very well done.
Everyone should respect cristiano for what he had done to his country and the world by donating for charity but those kids that only watched wc does not understand this . He is the most hated person in football for no reason think about it how much he had gone through. Pls no hate to Cristiano ronaldo aleast respect this legend
I am so excited to watch this a real living legend CR7.
Even as a Gooner, I must admit Cristiano reached a phenomenal level around 2008 and has not relented.
Remember Kobe (RIP) said he kept working hard and over the years the gap between him and his peers just kept increasing. Him and Messi have taken the game to new heights with their consistent high output.
Cr7’s Power, Speed, Skill are weaved throughout his technique; see his free-kick against Portsmouth
A great birthday gift for the GOAT
Thank you for this beautiful video. Now, we need a second and a third part of Cristiano's history!
This man's life story just like a movie! He had hard childhood and now he has the best life♥️ RESPECT! CR7 is my forever idol!!!
A masterclass of a video as usual. Need a version of Messi as well. Like I keep saying always , I hope your channel becomes massive, so so underrated brother.
You're the GOAT of football youtube. How you manage to make masterpieces like this, all on your own, is beyond me. Just amazing stuff.
I've been trying to get football reaction channels to watch your content so that more people can discover you and help you grow your fan base. Your current subscriber count doesn't do you justice. You should have double the amount of subs that a channel like FD has. Your stuff is just breathtaking.
A hardworking genius that keeps the grind till this day. Cristiano Ronaldo is the living embodiment of hard work.
This is the best documentary so far...
Sir Alex gave him the # 7... and here we are... to celebrate his work!! Respect Sir ⚽️🤞🥳🎊🎊
Wonderful job balon the levels are even more up👍
Never stop these
You know the difference b/w Messi and Ronaldo is Messi is so magicfull and Cr7 is motivation I don't mean leo doesn't work hard enough but there is something about CRISTIANO that will make you wanna work hard 💯
Anyone who has any experience of video editing, appreciates HOW LONG this must take. Outstanding. Love your videos.
I can't believe my eyes, truly a masterpiece, thank you for the upload fahd.
Gonna listen to this at the gym. It'll probably be one of your greates
The research, narration, editing and overall flow. Brilliant piece of work, really supreme quality.
Every now and then, I always come back to this channel to check for new stuff. Glad to not be disappointed this time!
When he first came to UTD, he was frustrating to me, he would run like the wind, had the strength of an Ox but he would either fall over his own feet, take one player on to many and i was like, yes, yes, yes as my excitement grew then i was like arghhhh. When he settled in and the team adjusted to him, well then he had it all. It all came together. I think it was Gary Neville who said, we had to adjust the way we played to accommodate his level of skill. They say at UTD " know one player is bigger than Manchester United" yet I think Sir Alex knew Cristiano was that good. I'm pleased he has had an amazing career and respected for his achievements. He's a good modern day ambassador for football. Thank you for this video, it's very good. Respect.
The production quality of these videos are something else. Thank you 🙏🏻
What a masterpiece this documentary is!
I remember myself being obsessed with football around year 2000. Being same age as Cristiano, I can relate to the year numbers particularly.
A real life Icon for his dedication and rage to be the best in world , The Goat !
Ronaldo will always remain the goat to me i will never leave him ❤❤
Mate, i am from Portugal and i have seen lots of hours in RUclips. This video and information is GOLD for generations to come in Football history. if there was a place to donate i would. Congratulations and please continue at this level! World Class Details
Best football documentaries on RUclips.
You and Athletic Interest are my favourite sport related channels.
Thank you very much and good luck in future! 😇
Imagine if Ronaldo join Barcelona instead of man united it will be disaster for other teams (Ronaldo&Messi) ❤️
A ture example of true leadership. Every true leader must first be doubted then will be believed in through his persistence and devotion to his vision.
Thank you for such a well done documentary. I love Christiano Ronaldo
I watched all of your videos, this is channel is pure gold, never stop man, you are great!!! Respect from Romania🇷🇴❤️
A very good work of art. This documentary had everything in it
Omg! the fact that you have watched all the matches makes the video more incredible
Not only did Ronaldo become a Manchester United legend he left the English league for Spain's la Liga to join real Madrid where he also became a real Madrid club legend before leaving once again for another countries top league as he signed for Italy's Seria A club juventus where he helped them go on to win the Italian seria A which they have not done for a while I think
And breaking more records on his way to win another champion's league title with juventus that they haven't won for years becoming a club legend again for a third club in 3 different countries no other player has ever done anything like that and that is why he is the greatest of all time and Blow's Messi s career out of town
Pfhhh yeh right
What a legendary documentary.... Feels like living in 2000s and witnessing the journey of a player with outstanding personality, Cristiano 7🇵🇹❤️
As always, fantastic job, keep it up my man!
Cristiano is definitely one of the greats of football..
Absolutely amazing need other parts too ❤️ he has the most inspiring story to go to top of the world
Great work man,thanks for making the legendary Documentary , RESPECT
22:50 how cafu laughed in his face gets me everytime, no striker would want to face Maldini Stam Nesta and Cafu
This is the best Ronaldo story I have ever watched, I'm so glad I saw this
Please make part 2
This documentary should be on Netflix, blessed to watch it free on RUclips. 🙏🏼
Thank you so much, this encapsulates this era that is not so known among football fans(sporting)Desrcibes the trials cristiano went through in Lisbon and rose up BUT not found glory but earned glory in man United.
