The Day I Played with Ronaldo

Chapter 112: Zero distance between stars (Part 2)

Anna Lias took over the conversation, "São Paulo has entered the playoffs, what are your goals for this season?"

"Champion, of course the champion." Licado laughed.

"I'm very confident. However, Sao Paulo ranked first in the regular season and showed good form. It is indeed a strong contender for the championship. In the first round of the playoffs, you will face the eighth-placed Santos. What do you think of this opponent?"

"Santos is a very strong opponent. It has a group of talented players such as Robinho, Diego and Renato. Don't underestimate them just because they are young," Ricardo said earnestly. Meeting us in the first round, I believe they have a great chance to win the championship."

These words made Analias and Barbosa smile, and also made the audience burst into laughter.

"Do you have any personal goals," Annalias asked again, "Do you have ambitions to be the top scorer?"

"My personal goal is to help the team win. As for the top scorer, if possible, of course I want to compete, but the top scorer is Kaka. If he becomes the top scorer, I will only be happy for him .In the game, I will continue to assist him. Similarly, he will also assist me. Like me, he is a person who values ​​team honor more than individual honor." Ricardo took the opportunity to praise Kaka.

After asking a few questions about the game, Analias and Barbosa turned the conversation to a more personal one.

"What role did Ronaldo play in your footballing journey?"

"I think he should be my mentor. When I was 5 years old, he took me to play football together," Ricardo showed a look of reminiscence, "At that time he was still very thin, but he was stronger than me. Too much, he often bullies me with his strength and speed." As he spoke, he couldn't help laughing.

The audience roared with laughter again.

"On the road of football, who has helped you the most?"

"It's my mother and Ronaldo," Ricardo said categorically, "Ronaldo had just become famous at that time, and he didn't have much money to help the family. Our family's economy was very tight, but my mother insisted on saving money to send me to football. School. My current achievements are inseparable from my mother’s firm support. No matter what others say about her, she is the person I am most grateful and loves most in the world. Ronaldo is helping me with skills and training. Me, I still watch tapes of his games a lot, learning and imitating his every move."

"Why did you choose Sao Paulo instead of a club in Rio de Janeiro, where you were born?"

"I went to a club in Rio to try out,

But I encountered the same problem as Ronaldo back then," Ricardo shook his head, recalling the experience of the original owner, and said with a smile, "Same as Ronaldo, when I was young, I looked thinner than my peers. I've been to Flamenco, Fluminense, and Botafogo, but they all turned me down. So I came to São Paulo to try my luck. Sao Paulo Club was the first team I tried out in Sao Paulo State, luckily they offered me a youth contract. "

"It should be said that Sao Paulo is lucky." Barbosa's words aroused the approval of the audience. "Which is your favorite club?"

Ricardo did not hesitate: "If it is in Brazil, of course it is Sao Paulo. This is where I was trained. If it is in the world, it is Ajax. The miracles that this club has created are amazing. "

"Do you want to play for Ajax one day? Is Ajax your first choice to land in Europe?"

Ricardo kept Susan's explanation in mind, and said with a smile: "Who can say for sure about these things, now I just want to play football for Sao Paulo."

Barbosa didn't press the question either. Anna Lias then asked: "With your age and your achievements, it is not an exaggeration to say that you are the best young player in the world..."

"No, no, no," Ricardo interrupted her with a smile, "Excellent? Of course. I have this confidence. The best? Not necessarily. Robinho and Diego in Santos will definitely not be convinced, and there are a large number of them in Europe. Good players at 16-18, I have to work harder to be the best."

The audience applauds.

Anna Lias asked curiously: "Many people think that you have the possibility to win the World Footballer and the Golden Globe Award in the future. Who do you think will be your biggest competitor among your peers?"

This question, which was not in Susan's prediction, did not provide him with an answer. But Ricardo certainly knew the correct answer. "If you are a little older, Ronaldinho and Kaka will definitely become the World Player of Football. If you are the same age as me, then there is Messi from the La Masia youth training camp. He will be an absolute superstar in the future , and may even reach the height of Maradona. There is also Cristiano Ronaldo who plays for Sporting Lisbon, and he will definitely have the opportunity to become the world footballer."

Many years later, when people look back on this TV program, they will be amazed by Ricardo's accurate prediction.

But at this time, most people are still confused about the two names "Messi" and "Cristiano Ronaldo". Who are they? Why is it compared with Ricardo?

You must know that Ricardo is now very popular in Brazil. Together with Kaka and Robinho, he is considered to be the successor of Pele.

Which onion is Messi? Which garlic is Cristiano Ronaldo? No matter how powerful it is, can it be stronger than Li Kaduo?

Barbosa is well-known by UW, he seemed a little uncertain and said: "Cristiano Ronaldo, if I remember correctly, he has already played the main role in Sporting Lisbon this season, and he has played 12 or 13 games so far. Time, scored 1 goal, assisted 2 or 3 times. Messi... I have a little impression that he is Argentine and is currently in Barcelona B team, but I have not followed his game."

"It won't be long before their fame spreads all over the world." Licado said calmly.

Barbosa wisely dismissed the subject. A few other questions were asked, and the atmosphere at the scene has been very good.

And when the audience asked questions, the atmosphere reached its climax. The audience didn't ask too sharp questions, they mainly asked questions like "what type of girl do you like", "do you have a girlfriend", "which actor do you like", "you are half Chinese, do you want to travel to China" and so on .

To Riccardo's surprise, questions about "China" were rarely raised. Perhaps Brazil is a country where mixed blood is very common, and everyone is not interested in Ricardo's mixed blood.

Then entered the ball skills show, Licado was asked to perform juggling with an apple at the show. Ricardo tried several times, and the most time he bumped 11 times.
