Ronaldo: Give the cup to Barcelona

Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo had one last dig at Barcelona as his team were knocked out of Europe by the Catalans.

In what was a less controversial Champions League semi-final match between the two La Liga sides, Barca drew 1-1 at home in the second leg to win the tie 3-1 on aggregate and book their place for the 28 May final at Wembley.

Barca won the first leg 2-0 in a fiery encounter at the Bernabeu which Madrid used to shine the spotlight on what they perceived as continued refereeing favouritism towards their bitter rivals.

The theme continued on Tuesday night with players and officials associated with Real angered by a goal that was ruled out by the referee with the game still goalless at Camp Nou.

Gonzalo HiguaĆ­n's 47th-minute goal was chalked off after Javier Mascherano fell, theatrically, following contact from a falling Ronaldo, who himself had been tripped.

"Javier Mascherano wasn't like this at Liverpool. He must have learned all these cheating tricks at Barcelona," Ronaldo was quoted in the Guardian as saying.

"There was nothing wrong with the goal, that could have altered the course of the match but the referee didn't want to see it that way. Those who know about football know that Barcelona are very well protected. We just have to live with these injustices.

"We knew if we scored a goal they would do everything possible so we wouldn't get through. This isn't good for football. If things don't improve we should just stay home and let Barcelona play by themselves. Next year they should just give the cup directly to Barcelona."

Meanwhile, Barca boss Josep Guardiola would not be drawn on Madrid's complaints against refereeing decisions in both legs.

"I have no strength left for that," he said.

"If people want to complain and judge, then that's fine - but we will just enjoy this."

Ronaldo's old club Manchester United are overwhelming favourites to play Barca in the final after they won their Champions League semi-final first leg against Schalke 2-0 in Germany.

The second leg is being played at Old Trafford on Wednesday night.

Cristiano Ronaldo: ā€œWe want to win the three matches we have leftā€

Following his second four-goal performance of the season, Cristiano Ronaldo commented on Real Madridā€™s big win.

ā€œWe played extremely well tonight. We have three matches left and we need to play like we did tonight. We played well, and not just because we changed tactics. We were very motivated.ā€

ā€œWe earned an excellent result after losing the Champions League semifinal, and that isnā€™t easy to do. This is a tough place to play in and Sevilla are no pushover. We need to stay on track and win the three matches that we have left.ā€

ā€œBreaking the scoring record is possible, but itā€™s not what I am thinking about. I only want to help my team.ā€

Cristiano is five goals shy of record

His four goals on Saturday against Sevilla took his season total to 33 in 31 La Liga matches.

Cristiano Ronaldo is on pace to break one of Real Madridā€™s most sacred of records. His four goals on Saturday against Sevilla took his season total to 33 in 31 La Liga matches; five shy of the club record 38 goals scored by Hugo Sanchez in 1989/90.

Top scorer on the team and top scorer in La Liga, Cristiano Ronaldo has scored 33 goals in 31 matches so far this season. Twenty-one seasons ago, Hugo Sanchez had scored 35 goals by Week 35 of the competition

Of the three matches left to play in 1989/90, Hugo Sanchez needed only one to equal the mark set by Telmo Zarra to become the clubā€™s top scorer in one league campaign. The Mexican striker missed the match against Osasuna and was unable to score against Atletico, but in the final match of the season knocked in a hat-trick against Oviedo at the Bernabeu.

Three matches are all that remain this year as well. Real Madrid host Getafe on Tuesday, then visit Villarreal the following weekend and close out the season by welcoming Almeria to town. Three important matches against teams that Cristiano has enjoyed previous success against. Getafe have conceded two braces to the Portuguese, Almeria have given up two goals in thee matches and Villarreal have conceded five.

This season alone, Ronaldo has scored three hat-tricks (Athletic, Malaga and Villarreal) and six braces (Getafe, Hercules, Malaga, Deportivo, Real Sociedad and Valencia). What is even more astounding though is that Cristiano has twice this season scored four goals in a single match (Racing and Sevilla); a milestone he had never accomplished prior to this year.

Cristiano ā€“ the Realā€¦ interview

May 9, 2011

tags: cristiano

by unamadridista

Better late than never, right? With all the things going on in the world of Real Madrid this past month, this Realā€¦ interview with Cristiano Ronaldo was relegated to the bottom of the list of things to do, but once things calmed down, it made its way back up. For me, this was one of the harder ones to translate, because Cristianoā€™s Portuguese accent when he speaks Spanish seems to be stronger now than it was when he first came, for some reason ā€“ maybe because he spends the majority of his time speaking Portuguese with Marcelo, Pepe and Ricky? Anyway, my favorite part of the interview bar none is when Cristiano speaks about Cristiano Junior. I love the smile he had on his face when he did that! And the parts about missing his family when he moved to Sporting were also very endearing!

A big thanks to reader Sanja for assisting with the translation!

ā€œHolding Onā€ by Jeremih is one of your favorite songs, one youā€™re always listening to, and even singing.

Singing is not what I do best, but I do sing a bit.

I donā€™t know if youā€™re the best at it, but you do manage to draw Marcelo and Pepe in, and sometimes Iker as wellā€¦

I think music draws everyone in, because everyone likes music, we listen to music before training sessions and games, and itā€™s part of the Real Madrid family.

What does music mean to you? I always see you listening to music in your car, in the locker room, with your headphonesā€¦

Music is part of my life, I grew up in a very musical atmosphere. My sister was a singer, and I remember when I lived in Madeira, we went to see many shows, where my father worked, and so I grew up in this atmosphere.

Does your sister sing well?

Yes, she sings well. She didnā€™t continue her career because other things came up, but she did sing for many years.

Is music capable of giving players a ā€œplusā€ before games?

Yes, I think so. Many players like to listen to music before games, itā€™s part of their pre-game ritual. I personally like to listen to music before games, because it relaxes me and itā€™s good for me. Others like to be alone before games, with their headphones on and listening to music. It depends on each person, because each one has their own way of thinking and acting. It works very well for me.

What kind of music do you like?

I donā€™t have a favorite style, I like many styles. It depends on the situation, for example, I like to listen to music with rhythm before games, nothing slow. It depends, it depends on the moment, who youā€™re with, many things.

Not this again!!!

Most people donā€™t know Cristiano Ronaldo, they donā€™t know that inside the locker room, heā€™s always laughing and joking around. But youā€™re also very competitive. People say you contribute to the great atmosphere. Is it hard for people to get to know the real Cristiano Ronaldo?

I donā€™t think so. I think the people who work with me each day, who see me each day know me, know how I am. But itā€™s true that people on the outside have a very different opinion, because they donā€™t know me, but thatā€™s normal and I understand perfectly why itā€™s like. But those who do know me know how I am, what I like, what angers me, that Iā€™m a very competitive person ā€“ everyone who knows me knows that ā€“ but Iā€™m never going to change for the worse, Iā€™m always going to be the same. But I think that most of the people who know me like me.

Marcelo was here last week. Heā€™s always smiling, and he said his way of being is to always try and be happy. What do you like to see in the people around you?

I like people with very positive attitudes, who are happy and smiling, because that also influences you. I think Marcelo is a very special person in this aspect, because heā€™s always in a good mood, always smiling and joking around. Heā€™s a very happy guy and a good influence on me, because I spend a lot of time with him and with Pepe, with KakĆ”, with the Spanish guys. In this aspect, I consider myself very fortunate, because itā€™s very easy to get along with the guys on this team, because theyā€™re all guys who joke around a lot, who laugh a lot, who accept each otherā€™s teasing, and this atmosphere makes it easier to grow and learn.

What is the funniest thing youā€™ve done in the locker room, something that made you laugh a lot, such as hiding things orā€¦

I donā€™t like those jokes that involve hiding phones or shoes or socks, and since I donā€™t like to do them, I also donā€™t like having them done to me. Iā€™m not the best person to reply to this question, but a lot of them do funny things, from Iker to Albiol to Canales to AdĆ”n ā€“ all of them joke around, and thatā€™s why this locker room is phenomenal and very positive. I love it.

Is this one of the best locker rooms youā€™ve been in?

Yes. But Iā€™ll add that I had a great time in Manchester, where there was a very happy atmosphere, but there were four or five older players who were more serious than the rest, the younger ones, which is normal. The locker room of Madrid is one of the most extroverted atmospheres Iā€™ve been in.

How many true friends do you have?

We have few true friends, not hundreds, but I have a lot of people ā€“ and I donā€™t like to say ā€œtrueā€ friends ā€“ who have grown up with me and in whom I have all the confidence in the world, and others from the team, I consider my teammates my friends, because we see each other every day and theyā€™re my second family. When Iā€™m away from home, itā€™s with them that I spend the most time with. I have a lot of friends in the club, but only a few ā€œrealā€ friends because when you were nobody and you needed something, they were the ones that helped you out. And theyā€™re still my friends. Iā€™m a very easy person to get along with, and people who know me will say that, and I feel fortunate because when I need something, I have a lot of friends here in Madrid to help me out.

What do you value about your friends?

You get to a certain level of maturity so that you can pick the right friends. When I was younger, I didnā€™t know how to distinguish a true friend from someone with ulterior motives. Itā€™s different. But now I know and I can choose, because Iā€™m more mature, and I have more experience in distinguishing between the people who want good things for me and those who want to do bad things to me.

Speaking of maturity, Casillas also said that he canā€™t stand false people. What canā€™t you stand?

When Iā€™m lied to, which is also part of falsity. Lying to me is one of the worst things a person can do to me. I can accept a positive lie, but itā€™s one of the things that angers me the most.

What were you like as a kid growing up in Madeira? Tell me about it.

I was very simple, skinny, very uglyā€¦ I grew up in a very family-oriented atmosphere, Iā€™m very attached to my family, very attached to my father, my mother, my siblings, my friends. When you grow up in a very small neighborhood, you tend to get closer to people than if you lived in a big city. I grew up well, with a good education, my mother instilled good values in me, my dad as well, and in school, I was a good, I wasnā€™t bad, I wasnā€™t a phenomenon but I was a very diligent student. In Madeira, I didnā€™t miss any school because my mother was always watching over me and my siblings as well. It was always school, football, school, footballā€¦ and thatā€™s how I grew up, playing against older boys on a small field in the neighborhood.

You played against older boys?

Always.

Why? Because you were better than them orā€¦

No, no, it was because the kids my age didnā€™t really like football. My brother and my cousins liked football, so I played with them. I was smaller than them, but I liked it because I was just that type of kid, very desarrollado (Cris says the last word like Marcelo).

Yes, as Marcelo says, very desarrollado.

Yes, and I liked it because when you play with those older than you, you learn a lot more.

Was your family the typical kind where the mother says, ā€œCris, studyā€ and your father would say, ā€œplay footballā€?

No, my mother was the one who told me more to study, but my father ā€“ uyyy -

Itā€™s a ball. There are some down there.

ā€¦ was an equipment manager, and so he told me to play football, but I knew how to do both things, and my siblings helped out a lot in that as well. To be honest, I wasnā€™t bad at school, but football gave me more pleasure.

And thatā€™s how it all started, in Andorinha, where your father was the equipment manager. What do you remember about the beginnings of your career, when you put on a kit for the first time and you had to play on weekendsā€¦

Playing for your neighborhood club is a dream. One day, I was at home ā€“ I had always played in my neighborhood ā€“ and my cousin, who played for Andorinha, he was the captain, said to me, ā€œwhy donā€™t you come with me to train and play?ā€ I said, ā€œbutā€¦ā€ because I had no idea about it. And he brought me along for a training session, and I liked it, but I had no idea what it was like to play games for a club because I had only played with my friends. And thatā€™s how it all started ā€“ my cousin advised me to join a club, and thatā€™s how it all began.

And how did you get to Nacional?

After four or five years with Andorinha, I moved to Nacional, which is one of the best clubs in Madeira, along with MarĆ­timo. My godfather was a director with Nacional, which influenced my decision a bit, because MarĆ­timo wanted me as well, and I chose Nacional for my godfather because he told me, you have to come here, itā€™s better for youā€¦ I was there for two years, I had a great time there, itā€™s a phenomenal club, and then I went on to Sporting.

While you were there, did you ever hear the older players say, ā€œthis kid is good, he can get farā€? Were you a normal kid or were you already a star as a kid?

Not to show off, but itā€™s not easy to leave Madeira when youā€™re 12 years old to go to Lisbon, a completely different city. It would be like leaving here to go to the Canary Islands, for example. Being there without your family, without your parents, without your sisters, with a language thatā€™s quite different ā€“ it was still Portuguese, but my accent was very bad, and so it was difficult, very, very difficult. I suffered a lot, I cried every day because I wanted to see my family, and they were very complicated times. But with the help of Sportingā€™s directors, my teammates, who knew I had something in meā€¦ at the age of 12, they donā€™t know if youā€™ll make it as a player, but I had something different than the restā€¦ I felt with the passing of each year that I could explode at any moment and thatā€™s what happened. At the age of 16, I was already training with the first team, which is something that I had never even considered could happen. Everything happened very quickly.

When we told the mĆ­ster that we were going to interview you, he told us to ask about your time in Lisbon, because Cristiano suffered when he went to Lisbon, he cried a lot, he missed his family. Itā€™s hard for a kid, although the directors helped you, but in the end, youā€™re still a kid and youā€™re alone. I supposed you live in a residenceā€¦

Yes, in a residence, I was the youngest one there. I remember that it was the most complicated moment in my life, on the sporting level. I remember that I cried almost every day. I would speak on the phone with my siblings and my mamĆ”, and I would cry. I would buy a box of 30 telephone cards to use in the telephone booths, call Madeira, and as the values decreased very rapidly, I had to speak very fast with my siblings. Then I would go back to the residence and cry, it was like that almost every day. It was very, very difficult. And so thatā€™s why I consider it the most difficult time of my life, on the sporting level.

Did you ever think about returning home, telling your mother that you couldnā€™t take it anymoreā€¦

Yes, I did want to go back, but my parents and my siblings always supported me, and the people from Sporting as well, because they knew that I could overcome this. But it was difficult. My mother would travel to Lisbon once in a while to give me strength, my siblings as well. It wasnā€™t easy, especially the first year. After that, things got better, because I became friends with some of the other players, directors, the coaches, people from the club. That was important for me, and from that point on, the adaptation became much easier.

You made Sportingā€™s first team at the age of 16, and people were already talking about ā€œthat kid Cristiano Ronaldo.ā€ Was that when you realized that you could make a living out of football?

Yes, I felt that a bit, and also because I was playing with the national teamā€¦ Training with the first team of Sporting meant that I had to change my studying habits, because sometimes I trained in the mornings with the first team, and sometimes at other times in the day with my team, the junior team. The schedule was very complicated. I started going to school at night and then there came the point where I told my mother I couldnā€™t do both things anymore, and I chose football. I remember that there were older people, aged 30 or 40, in the school, because I wanted to cram two years of study into one. It was very difficult, and I chose football, and I think that was a good decision.

What was your first salary from playing football, the first time you received money for playing football?

Fifty euros. I spent it on books and notebooks for school.

What did you spend those 50 euros on?

I purchased supplies for school. A backpack, books, everything.

In 2003, when you had already made a name for yourself in Sporting, Manchester United came to play a friendly, and some players went up to Ferguson and told him to keep an eye on this kid, who was very good. And Manchester United came calling.

Yes. There are some people who think that I made a deal after that game, but thatā€™s not true. There was already an agreement before that. I donā€™t know if I should be saying that, but Iā€™ve already said it many times, so I hope it wonā€™t be a problem. There are some very interesting things that I wonā€™t tell here, since itā€™s not worth it. In 2003, when I was 18, I reached an agreement with Manchester, which was the team that was the most interested in me, for the situation, for the game we played against them. The coach was interested, and there were some players who told him about me.

Which players?

Neville, Roy Keane, Ferdinand, and another. They were the best players in Manchester at that time, so that made me very happy.

Did you experience a bit of vertigo, going to a new country, playing in a new league?

Not at all. Zero. I didnā€™t speak the language, I didnā€™t know anyone, it was a completely different country, but after what I had been through in Lisbon, it became a challenge for me. It wasnā€™t difficult. Okay, I wonā€™t say zero, but a bit. I was going to a huge club, but I had a lot of confidence in myself and I knew that things were going to go well, and that I was going to triumph in this club.

This self confidence that you have is priceless. You have so much confidence in yourself.

The truth is that I have a lot of confidence in my abilities, and Iā€™ve always been like that. Itā€™s not because of who I am now, for what Iā€™ve won; people whoā€™ve known me for a long time know that Iā€™ve always been like that. I havenā€™t changed. Of course, when things go badly, I accept that, but my character, my personality are just like that, I always like new challenges and I believed I could do something for Manchester, and of course leaving Sporting for Manchester was a very important step in my life.

When you left Portugal, did you believe that you would become what you are now?

No, no. I thought that I would be one more player, that I could write a page in the clubā€™s history book, but I never thought I would win a Champions League, the Ballon dā€™Or, awardsā€¦ it never really crossed my mind, to be honest, especially when I had just arrived in Manchester.

Have you ever been scolded, yelled at?

A lot, and Iā€™m happy that they did that, because I wouldnā€™t be the player that I am today without it, and not have the character that I have.

Many famous footballers are surrounded by ā€œyes-men.ā€

It was the opposite for me. The persons around me would tell me, ā€œCristiano, be careful,ā€ ā€œCristiano, youā€™re doing this wrong,ā€ ā€œCristiano, do thisā€¦ā€ And I appreciated that, and thatā€™s why weā€™re still friends. I donā€™t like fake people, the kind that when you play badly, tell you that you played really well, phenomenally. Thatā€™s why the people who did this to me (mimes pulling his ears, as the phrase for scolding someone in Spanish is literally ā€˜pulling oneā€™s earsā€™) from the time I was small were very important to my growth as a person and as a player. When I played for Sportingā€™s junior team, we were in a final, and we had games against teams from the archipelagos ā€“ MarĆ­timo, Nacionalā€¦ Sporting got matched up against MarĆ­timo, and MarĆ­timo played where I grew up. So for me, after playing so many years in Sporting and having the chance to return to Madeira to play, and in my neighborhood, with my family and friends thereā€¦ imagine how that was. But I wasnā€™t called up for the game, I wasnā€™t on the list because I had misbehaved in school. I remember looking at the list, I looked at it four times, and I didnā€™t see my name there. I started crying, and I went to the stadium, really angry and cryingā€¦ But this was very important for the development of my personality. Thatā€™s why I told you, the people who did these things to me benefited me as a person, and Iā€™m happy about that.

On a professional level, which player did you observe and try to emulate?

The truth is, Iā€™ve never had anyone that I used as an example. When I was younger, I always looked up to Portugalā€™s national team players because I hoped to one day play there ā€“ Rui Costa, Figo, Fernando Couto; they were the references I had. And then later on, at Manchester, they had players such as Giggs, Paul Scholes, Roy Keaneā€¦ I didnā€™t emulate them, because I donā€™t like to imitate anyone, but theyā€™re an example of footballers who do things well and triumph in football. Iā€¦ (he canā€™t get the word ā€œfijabaā€ out) observed them and it always worked out well for me.

What is the best football advice youā€™ve ever received?

Iā€™ve received a lot of good advice, so I canā€™t just pick one. From coaches, ex-players, important figuresā€¦ I always listen to people who know what they are doing, who know what football is aboutā€¦ I always listen. If you want to follow the advice, itā€™s up to you, but I always listen.

And the best advice youā€™ve given to a budding footballer? People might not know this, but the younger players on Real Madrid say that if one of them has a problem, you worry about them. For example, Canales hasnā€™t had an easy season, but youā€™ve been very concerned about him.

Just like an older player can give advice to a younger player, the younger player can also have his personality and give advice to the older one. We can talk, since age doesnā€™t matter. If the boys in the cantera have any doubts, I can give them my opinion, to tell them what I think would be best for them. Iā€™ve given out a lot of advice, and Iā€™ve received a lot as well. And like this, we grow up with humility and learning from each other.

In 2009, you came to Real Madrid. Everyone said itā€™s always been your dream to wear the shirt of Real Madrid.

Yes, my dream and that of my family as well. Madrid has always been one of the best clubs in the world, if not the best, I watched a lot of their games and Iā€™ve always had the ambition of playing for the greatest club in the world. My mom also told me thatā€¦ I think that in life, everyone has chapters, cyclesā€¦ and my cycle at Manchester had come to an end and that it was time to change. I had won, well I donā€™t want to say everything, but a lot, and I wanted to continue winning in another league, with another club. And there was always something special about this club, and I wanted to play for them. Both clubs came to an agreement, and Iā€™m very fortunate. Iā€™m very happy here.

How has your fame changed the life of your family? I asked Iker if it was difficult for his brother Unai to be the brother of Iker Casillas, and he said all the credit goes to him. You have three siblings. How have their lives changed because of you?

Change has both its advantages and disadvantages. For example, I can tell you that my brother doesnā€™t like telling anyone that heā€™s my brother. Itā€™s not that he doesnā€™t like it, because heā€™s proud of that, but that he doesnā€™t like revealing it in certain situations. Itā€™s normal. Theyā€™re very proud of me, for how I am, what Iā€™ve achieved. Theyā€™re very happy with the brother that they have, Iā€™m sure of it.

And how have you paid your family back for all theyā€™ve done for you, because you wouldnā€™t be here if it werenā€™t for them? You would have left Sporting, gone back to Madeiraā€¦

Itā€™s true. Theyā€™ve always been a pillar in my life, because theyā€™ve given me a lot of support, they were always there for me when I needed them. If weā€™re not going to help out our families, who are we going to help out? Theyā€™ve helped me a lot. And I try to pay them back for everything theyā€™ve done for me, I try to be the flip side of that coin.

And your family has grown a bit, with the addition of a little boy. How are you as a father?

A good father. Iā€™m still learning, but itā€™s a sensation that isā€¦ those who are fathers know what Iā€™m saying. I donā€™t have words to describe it. Getting home and seeing someone who is yours, of your bloodā€¦ itā€™s amazing. I love it and Iā€™m going through a very special moment in my life, and I really am very happy. Itā€™s great.

Do you change diapers and all those things?

Sometimes, but I have to confess, itā€™s not my favorite thing to do. I like feeding him, bathing him, the simple things. Itā€™s something beautiful and I love it.

I once saw the screen of KakĆ”ā€™s computer, and there was a picture of his son. He said the most impressive thing for him is when his son just looks at him, and he wonders what heā€™s thinking about.

As I said before, itā€™s something thatā€™s indescribable. Iā€™ve been a father for nine months, and every day, Cristiano surprises me with something new, a look, a gestureā€¦ they are spectacular things. The most beautiful things we can do as human beings are having children and enjoying life.

Do you go out for walks with him, like Xabi does with his son in the Retiro?

Not yet, because heā€™s still too small, but Iā€™ve taken him to the circus and to watch football. He already has an eye for football. He has something, itā€™s there in his look. Iā€™m sure heā€™s going to be smart, at least smarter than me.

What more can we ask for than for him to be a better football player than his father?

I hope so, but he can be anything he wants. Iā€™m not going to tell him what to do, he can do whatever he wants.

So youā€™ll never tell him what to do with his life, such as telling him to play football, because it worked out so well for you?

No. Whatever he wants to be, Iā€™ll accept it, whether he wants to be a basketball player or a journalist, whatever he wants to be. Weā€™ll see. The truth is Iā€™d like him to play football so I can advise him, but weā€™ll see.

Iker Casillas said itā€™s complicated when you have a girlfriend who is also in the public eye, because there are always paparazzi following them. Youā€™re in this situation too, with a beautiful, top model girlfriend. Is it complicated not being able to live a normal life?

Itā€™s not just because you have a famous, model girlfriend; itā€™s always going to be like this. You could date a normal girl with a normal job, but since youā€™re famous, there will always be people following you around, trying to find something to talk about. These are situations that we have to accept and learn to live with. Itā€™s difficult at times because you want to do normal things, but you canā€™t because there are people watching you, trying to take photos so that they can sell them, or other bad things, but you have to live with that. We canā€™t make a new world, so we have to adapt to this one. These are things that happen in life, but weā€™re happy, content, and I hope things continue like that.

Iker said that once when he was walking on Gran VĆ­a (a prominent avenue in Madrid), he couldnā€™t find a taxi, and since there were so many people around, he took a cardboard box, made some holes for his eyes and put it over his head [more on that story here]. What is the strangest thing youā€™ve done to prevent people from recognizing you?

I was in New York, out with friends, and I told the taxi driver to drive fast and drop me off somewhere where there was no one around, but close to the hotel, where some paparazzi were waiting. I put my arm around my friend and pretended I was drunk, because they were waiting for me to pop up, and this way I could put my head down. I lowered my head and rushed into the hotel. Impressive.

Weā€™ve had 37 minutes of this interview, and now weā€™re in the final part.

Thirty-seven minutes? No, 40.
