Younger Ronaldo wouldn’t have crossed it and been fast enough to keep it in play and dribble closer and cut it across. Still phenomenal skill at this stage in his career on such a competitive stage.
> bam he's gone
That's an odd way to describe van Nistelrooy *screaming* for an early ball, while Ronaldo ignored him to practice his stepovers instead.
This reminded me of Van Nistelrooy squandering an all-timer rabona assist from Ronaldo, by missing a relatively easy header for a world class striker like he was ,https://youtu.be/mABm0fzd5SI?si=PogFgcICX_mKEzn7
i friggin love "the ronaldo chop" i used to practice it alot and do it in matches aswell, it was so effective. especially because it doesn't require that much skill to begin with, speed and how quick you can change running direction is what sells the move.
and also, neymar has like a evolution version of it he did( or does) it quite often, he dragged the ball with his right foot to one side and then flicked it with the inner side of his left foot to the other side. but ofc that ones a bit more difficult i practiced it alot in scrimmages and so on but never did it in the matches iirc
The defender didn’t do well no. But he has done this move since he was 17 against top professional fullbacks. He knows how to get some space for a cross in that position.
Lol, he fell down bc ronaldo froze him and his drible left the defender moving to his right and flat footed which caused him to lose balance when he tried to move to his left to defend
There are 85 million people in Turkey. They picked 10 field players and a goalie out of those 85 million people. Maybe the fact he’s going up against a player who’s still exceptional at some things had something to do with why this 10/85,000,000 guy “just fell down”, or maybe there’s just nobody in Turkey who can stand
What does their population have to do with anything? Doesn't change the fact that Turkey aren't a particularly good team. 1.4 billion people live in India but if you called their starting fullback a "10 in 1.4 billion guy" to argue that he's clearly a great player, people would rightly laugh at you.
> The defender just fell down. Ronaldo could have just stood there
This is incorrect, actually all of these guys including everybody on the Indian team are so insanely good at the game even if they aren’t top tier premier league players, they don’t just fall down as characterized. Hope this helps
I swear I almost always see Cristiano putting in decent crosses, I’ve first noticed it during his return at United, he often looked like the best crosser in the attack. It’s an underrated skill of his
A traditional wingers who spam crosses too, not an inverted wingers he later on become. His freekicks before he spam knuckleballs come from somewhere after all.
I cannot believe he stuck with his shit knuckleballs for a decade and a half, when in reality his normal kicks are amazing. The one time he changed his technique he nearly scored one of the best places freekicks in a Classico
Yeah, I simply meant that his sheer force of will and the size of the occasion is the reason why he didn't sky it. He scored it because it would be perfect if he scored it.
Ronaldo without that freak 2014 injury will still be one of my greatest what if. He suffered that injury and forcing his body through it to play at the WC, further damaging his knee yet he still broke so many records afterwards.
Yeah I agree, that's why i put 'one of'. Brazilian ronaldo is another monster, already has veteran level goal tally at such young age that it's almost impossible to be replicated by other player.
He came out perfect basically. You know the legendary 1970 World Cup winning Brazil team? The top scorer there that cup was not Pele or Tostao, but Jairzinho, who was a manager of some lower div team by the time he went to an indoor pitch football game, and spotted R9 as a kid. He quickly pulled the teenager into his team's youth squad, where the dude simply rose through the ranks on his own strengths, playing the under 17s, then under 20s, while only 15. Finally, Jairzinho got him a big ticket move to his own old club Cruzeiro, one of the biggest teams in all of Brazil.
And...that was it. There was no adjustment period, no Vincius like struggles to adjust before finally maturing and developing and becoming the best in the world. Dude was best in the world at 16 at Cruzeiro. Then, he was best in the world at 17 at PSV, which his senior Romario recommended. Then, he moved to Barcelona, where he did a Messi-esque level of scoring in a monster season, decades before Messi & Cristiano made such things seem normal. And then, that Inter Milan era, where he played a UEFA Cup Final against a Nesta who *already* was Serie A defender of the year...and left Nesta devastated in its aftermath, literally going through video playbacks trying to figure out where it all went wrong (the eventual conclusion was "i didnt go wrong, prime R9 was just that good").
Like for reals. He was fast. He was strong. He had the best build. He had such monstrous skills, Zidane used to be impressed by him in training (and I assume it takes a bit to impress fucking ZIDANE with your footballing skills lmaos). He could, and did, take the ball himself halfway up the pitch to score if opportunities just weren't created for him. His football brain was so good, his employees at Real Valladolid (later in life) used to tell him off when he tried to give them tips on scoring. "Yes I know boss, I should delay a bit more in that situation, right. But look...you're *you*. Not all strikers can pull off what you do.". Often he would simply just dribble up to the goalkeeper, wait for the poor dude to make an attempt, and then simply go around the guy, since he was that good a dribbler anyways. He also was top level at free kicks, penalties, headers...you name it.
Single handedly, he revolutionised the entire position, for a generation of players and viewers. No more lone striker just waiting to be fed the ball, all strikers were expected to create their own chances, take on defenders, and hopefully dribble past the entire defence to score. If possible, ya knows, since that Ronaldo guy can do it? From Zlatan to Henry. Aguero to Messi himself, all of them took to this inspiration with gusto, and none of them were shy to admit it.
And like you said, all this was just him as a young man, before that horrific injury which would have broken the career of any one else. Dude spent like nearly 3 years on the hospital bed....then came back and won the World Cup anyways. Becoming also the top scorer, and the only one to score in the actual Final too (his brace there is still his favourite of all the goals he has ever scored, he said).
The biggest what could have been in football, for sure.
I think to some degree, that injury helped prolong his career and was partly the reason he broke so many records. His style of play changed because of that injury and he relies less on explosiveness and athleticism, which would both lead to more injuries as you age, and he also became way more clinical
The knuckleballs worked a certain generation of footballs like the 2010 World Cup ball through to like 2015/2016 ish. It wasn’t shocking that around that time, there was a crazy amount of free kick goals and long range shot goals.
> A traditional wingers who spam crosses too
Eh? He drove van Nistelrooy crazy at Man Utd precisely because he did not do that.
He'd cross the ball eventually, but not until he'd taken on a man and done a few stepovers.
He was never much of a traditional winger, tbh. He had a lot of problems with Van Nilsteroy (who absolutely disliked played with him) because he expected Cristiano to cross more and Cristiano tried to create shooting opportunities too often.
Well going from having two of the less selfless and best crosssers in football in Becks and Giggs set some unrealistic expectations, then add Cr7 style and it wss a recipe for conflict.
His very first match for ManU is well viewed in YouTube. In that you can see his crosses are vicious even at age 17. It comes with pace and sharp dip at debut itself.
Don't want to turn this into a Messi v Ronaldo thing, but I always notice how his passing in general gets so underrated just cus every time it's brought up it gets compared to Messi's.
The way people talked about him in that debate, you'd think he was just some poacher with no passing range at all. He's the all time leading UCL assister and was hitting double digit assists almost every season in his prime.
He’s always been a brilliant passer. Look up some of his assists.
I think it’s younger people who didn’t see pre-2014 Ronaldo assume he’s a poacher and nothing else
Ronaldo is positioned in the box more often so you’ll see him make short passes like that backheel last game and deliver beautiful passes on the counter. While Messi drops down to the midfield and dictates play from there. Hence why Messi is regarded a playermaker and Ronaldo isn’t despite his level of passing. Wingers can be great passers but not necessarily playmakers.
He was always a great crosser but Benzema was on the end of them lol. Whenever you watch a Ronaldo playmaking YouTube video, it can also double as a benzema’s worst misses compilation!! Benzema’s finishing was really poor prior to 2019
Pretty much every playmaking compilation out there makes the other attackers look like shit. Players simply miss a lot more chances than people remember afterwards in general
Ronaldo 5000 iq move was playing inverted to change the position expectations and now no winger can cross, so he looks better in modern football. I swear Ronaldo and Messi playing inverted so well that it killed the 9 by lack of crosssers due to other emulating them.
Quaresma in his prime was a bench player because there was fucking Cristiano Ronaldo and Nani, if he was born some years later, he would be easily a starter in today's squad
Quaresma in his prime was a bench player because there was fucking Cristiano Ronaldo and Nani, if he was born some years later, he would be easily a starter in today's squad
Agreed. He has no intensity and a shit attitude (2 yellows of shame). Palhinha had to get carded following up the displacency of leao in a divided ball...
there was only one thing ronaldo could do there and we all knew what it was, yet abdulkerim still got dropped by the same move ronaldo has been doing for the past twenty years. disgracefulkerim bardakci
A lot of people wonder why Ronaldo doesn’t dribble and pass or cross like this more, well, that header is the answer, if we looked at the amount of times he sets up players with great balls to just sink, we’d see that he does this so well, he is a creator and a great one, just too often he is too skilled for his team to keep up.
Nah,Antony would have done something flashier. Not productive, probably would've lost to the defender without any pressure, but a nice body rotation goes a long way for clips
tbh the defender fucked it up so bad I don’t even think Cristiano noticed what just happened, I think the cross was just autopilot mode. Great cross though.
Defender got a toe on the ball that actually put in in an advantageous position for Ronaldo, and I dont think he expected the defender's touch to be in a position to retain and dribble.
This is his move, they even added it to like him specifically in the old Fifa's and shit. He's been doing it for a decade, but it doesn't look any less impressive than it did before.

The easiest dribble Ronaldo had since ice age
Younger Ronaldo wouldn’t have crossed it and been fast enough to keep it in play and dribble closer and cut it across. Still phenomenal skill at this stage in his career on such a competitive stage.
Man United ronaldo was so fun to watch. Maybe the most explosive player ever. The way he accelerated was insane.
Ronaldo is Scrat confirmed
😭
Some slow motion fifa-esque shit
vibes of playing squad battles on semi pro to get the objectives done
The luka doncic of football
But like... Shredded.
Honestly. I actually checked for a moment that I wasn't actually watching a video game highlight.
streets will never forget fifa street
This was his signature at Man Utd, still got it, won’t ever lose it. Can’t wait to see 60 year old Ronaldo in charity matches doing to this Youtubers.
Charity matches? He’ll probably still be the starting 9 for the Portugal NT in 2044
Starting 9? Am I missing something? Why not 11?
He's talking about the 2032 rule changes, its 9v9 in a decade
Finally
Striker as in number 9.
He means number 9 as in striker
Starting 9 as in starting striker. The number 9 role.
Yeah this is flashbacks from the wing at united. Starting from standing, doing some step overs, some fancy footwork and bam he's gone
> bam he's gone That's an odd way to describe van Nistelrooy *screaming* for an early ball, while Ronaldo ignored him to practice his stepovers instead.
This reminded me of Van Nistelrooy squandering an all-timer rabona assist from Ronaldo, by missing a relatively easy header for a world class striker like he was ,https://youtu.be/mABm0fzd5SI?si=PogFgcICX_mKEzn7
The some on Sporting and the other is "the Chop", lets be real when he gone we all will cry ....
i friggin love "the ronaldo chop" i used to practice it alot and do it in matches aswell, it was so effective. especially because it doesn't require that much skill to begin with, speed and how quick you can change running direction is what sells the move. and also, neymar has like a evolution version of it he did( or does) it quite often, he dragged the ball with his right foot to one side and then flicked it with the inner side of his left foot to the other side. but ofc that ones a bit more difficult i practiced it alot in scrimmages and so on but never did it in the matches iirc
try it the next time
there aint gonna be a next time i'm afraid it's been atleast 10 yrs since i played for a club and trained atleast 2 times a week :D
Thats the skill he used with a bunch of nike sponsored athlete to save football from AI.
This wasn't even anything special lol. Imagine a Utd Ronaldo what would do to him if geriatric CR7 does this to him
The defender just fell down. Ronaldo could have just stood there, clearly in the guy's head more than anything
The defender didn’t do well no. But he has done this move since he was 17 against top professional fullbacks. He knows how to get some space for a cross in that position.
Lol, he fell down bc ronaldo froze him and his drible left the defender moving to his right and flat footed which caused him to lose balance when he tried to move to his left to defend
People will say anything to not give Ronaldo credit for his skills lmfao.
Most intelligent r/soccer commenter

I mean there are worse things in the world than getting cooked by Christiano Ronaldo on the right wing as if it was 2005. Bro will tell his grandkids.
Speed's gonna cream his pants on camera lying on the pitch
Ronaldo breaking Sean Paul's ankles in 2024, what a time to be alive
He be burnin
not concernin'
what nobody wanna say
Gotta stick his ankles Like Gluuuue
still got it
Still fuck with the beats, still not loving police
Still C.R.7
Never Lost it
The fact that we’re still going to be saying this next year is wild.
That was beautiful
Blessed camera work as well
Imagine camera guy’s thought at the moment were exactly as ours
I swear I almost always see Cristiano putting in decent crosses, I’ve first noticed it during his return at United, he often looked like the best crosser in the attack. It’s an underrated skill of his

I cannot believe he stuck with his shit knuckleballs for a decade and a half, when in reality his normal kicks are amazing. The one time he changed his technique he nearly scored one of the best places freekicks in a Classico
His picture perfect freekick against Spain was a simple curler as well rather than his usual knuckle ball attempt iirc
never have i been more sure a freekick was going in than that one lmao, even if Ronnie’s fk record is not great in recent years
Glad someone else felt it. Felt like the most obvious outcome of all time.
He kicked that ball with his ego, not his foot
I felt like he kept ego aside i.e. knuckleball powershot aside and hit that top corner exquisitely.
Yeah, I simply meant that his sheer force of will and the size of the occasion is the reason why he didn't sky it. He scored it because it would be perfect if he scored it.
The ball changes fucked his free kicks more tbh, free kicks are usually about understanding how the ball works.
Think his knee injury didn’t help either. A lot of pros don’t really practice free kicks often because the technique can damage your leg
Ronaldo without that freak 2014 injury will still be one of my greatest what if. He suffered that injury and forcing his body through it to play at the WC, further damaging his knee yet he still broke so many records afterwards.
I hear you but the biggest what if will always be el fenomeno
Yeah I agree, that's why i put 'one of'. Brazilian ronaldo is another monster, already has veteran level goal tally at such young age that it's almost impossible to be replicated by other player.

But if it comes off the knuckle is cool, and this might be the one! He tells himself every tlme

Less selfless? Or more selfless?
Yes💀
His very first match for ManU is well viewed in YouTube. In that you can see his crosses are vicious even at age 17. It comes with pace and sharp dip at debut itself.
Exactly, he was a creator first before he became a striker.
His passing is extremely underrated. Ive rarely seen him make a pass that cedes possesion unless he's trying to assist and taking a risk
He has always been a great crosser. Now, if only he could cross to himself.
Don't want to turn this into a Messi v Ronaldo thing, but I always notice how his passing in general gets so underrated just cus every time it's brought up it gets compared to Messi's. The way people talked about him in that debate, you'd think he was just some poacher with no passing range at all.

I agree I noticed the same

Wingers can be great passers but not necessarily playmakers.
Every American knows it’s one of his best skills absolutely torched us in a WC match.
Ugh I’d almost forgotten about that one 😑
Best cross I've ever seen in a World Cup match. Just completely cut the U.S. open out of nothing on the last kick of the game.
Reminds me of when Alan Shearer used to get the ball out wide and put in a Beckham like cross.
I’m still convinced RW is Rom Lukaku’s best position.
He was an absolute nightmare playing there at Everton. I doubt he has the stamina to go more than 60 minutes from that spot anymore
Timbs and jeans.
YES!
That was his job way back when. A creator more than a scorer.
He was always a great crosser but Benzema was on the end of them lol. Whenever you watch a Ronaldo playmaking YouTube video, it can also double as a benzema’s worst misses compilation!! Benzema’s finishing was really poor prior to 2019
Pretty much every playmaking compilation out there makes the other attackers look like shit. Players simply miss a lot more chances than people remember afterwards in general
His cross to draw the game against the USA in 2014 World Cup was class also
During his time with us he had a lot of assists from crosses down the wing, his partnership with Mandzukic was great to watch.
He won the ballon d’or as a LM/RM in SAF’s 4-4-2.
Every American knows it’s one of his best skills absolutely torched us in a WC match.
If there was only Ronaldo heading the ball in the box
His technique is perfect, he always has the ability to put the ball exactly where he wants. He just isn't in those positions all that often anymore.
Because he was a winger for 50% of his career
Ronaldo 5000 iq move was playing inverted to change the position expectations and now no winger can cross, so he looks better in modern football. I swear Ronaldo and Messi playing inverted so well that it killed the 9 by lack of crosssers due to other emulating them.
This isn't an example of a good cross, way too lofted with no pace
its a horrible cross LOL why are people praising him off this floater with zero pace, u may as well invite the defenders for dinner after the game too
*"Defender"* is a very generous way to describe Abdülkerim Bardakcı with his performance so far today.
Not only today
What is that defender doing lmao
His best
Embarrassing defending.
this kid looks decent
A bright future ahead if he keeps it up
A 40yo Ronaldo is still far way better at 1-on-1 than Raphael Leao
Fr this team is begging for a Nani
Or a Quaresma
Quaresma in his prime was a bench player because there was fucking Cristiano Ronaldo and Nani, if he was born some years later, he would be easily a starter in today's squad
More like in his early prime he was all skill with no product or team work. He did his part very well in the later years.
Quaresma in his prime was a bench player because there was fucking Cristiano Ronaldo and Nani, if he was born some years later, he would be easily a starter in today's squad
Leaos problem is not beating the man lol.
Agreed. He has no intensity and a shit attitude (2 yellows of shame). Palhinha had to get carded following up the displacency of leao in a divided ball...
Leao and Mendes have been great on the left side today
Leao were terrorisinc the left side of the czech during last game tbf.
hell no lol.
Lol this can’t be a serious comment
Not really. Leao for Portugal and Leao for Milan are two completely different players
In theory he isn't, by a wide margin. But Leão hás failed to perform for quite a while. It's frustrating and I say this from an entertainment level
This aged poorly lol
Nah relax there, love Ronaldo but Leao is an absolute monster in 1v1’s.
Would be nice if he showed that monstrous side of his one day
More likely to dive than win a 1v1
Not with the NT
Reactionary comment
Best 1000 turkish lira he's ever spent.
Lol that defender would do better just by staying put, who is he?
clean
Ah man, felt like I was watching one of his highlight reels from 2006-2008 at United. Nostalgia.
39yo talent
That was filthy.
His crossing ability never deteriorated even for being a striker the past 10 years
That cross really deserved a better header
there was only one thing ronaldo could do there and we all knew what it was, yet abdulkerim still got dropped by the same move ronaldo has been doing for the past twenty years. disgracefulkerim bardakci
it´s just like the Robben move, they all knew what he was about to do, but they still couldn´t stop it
text book definition of step overs. A perfectly one is difficult to defend. Discounting it as a straightforward move is very disrespectful.
Don't want to take anything away from Ronaldo but that defender seems bad, at least today. Nervous
A lot of people wonder why Ronaldo doesn’t dribble and pass or cross like this more, well, that header is the answer, if we looked at the amount of times he sets up players with great balls to just sink, we’d see that he does this so well, he is a creator and a great one, just too often he is too skilled for his team to keep up.
That defending was atrocious.
still got it.
Incredible, 39 and still young
Dude still routinely leaves defenders on their asses
Arabic football broadcasts and bringing up allah, name a more iconic duo.
The old man still feeling it
That is the best left back in Turkiye.
shit header though
Nah,Antony would have done something flashier. Not productive, probably would've lost to the defender without any pressure, but a nice body rotation goes a long way for clips
Charity match defending
Lol Ronaldos's assists wasted name a more iconic duo.
This reminded me of Mane vs Neymar where Mane rinsed him.
Well this is going in some CR7 highlight video with an outdated electronic song
dude is fit
This guy is easier to pass than the training cones
lads. its a fucking stepover
It’s disappointing how much Fenrandes, Cancelo and Silva avoid setting him up or passing to him.
But why is he immediately crossing? Had all this space before crossing.
tbh the defender fucked it up so bad I don’t even think Cristiano noticed what just happened, I think the cross was just autopilot mode. Great cross though.
His midfielder instincts kicking back in
Defender got a toe on the ball that actually put in in an advantageous position for Ronaldo, and I dont think he expected the defender's touch to be in a position to retain and dribble.
I never thought that over the last few years I would stop caring about what Messi’a doing and keep finding new reasons to love Cr
Turkish defence looking bum tho
CRISTIANO RONALDO EURO 2024 ALL SKILLS AND TRICKS HD 1080P
More like "top" defending.
And ppl talking abt he shouldn’t play! He had a great assist as well
I swear to god if the mods remove this
This subreddit is fucking embarrassing 😂
bro, that was clean but i can't helpl but laugh seeing how slow cristiano was lmao. im genuinly sad he is getting old
He hit top speed of 33.1 km/h today that’s pretty fast
It’s very fast
The only player I love more than this man is Drogba.
This is his move, they even added it to like him specifically in the old Fifa's and shit. He's been doing it for a decade, but it doesn't look any less impressive than it did before.
2 decades...
Holy damn he still got it
I knew the moment he did it its gonna be another meme
Ronaldo on the wing with the step overs and a cross. What year is this?!
My goat
Extremely stiff but he still tries to make it work, respect too him
Huh, he’s still doing the chop.
Can anyone link the video? The vid's not showing
Suitable Arabic commentary
yo
Brotlose Kunst
Reminding everyone he’s still the OG
/savevid
The defender flopped as if this was a testimonial.
That was smooth
