  Speaker 2: you wake up.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: You play with your key as well.
• 1:17

• 1:22
  Speaker 2: have success. You know when I mean when I say success,
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: it's I worked for that talent is not enough. You
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: have to I dedicate myself so much that this is
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: part of me.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: Records is part of me. I don't follow the records.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: The records follow me, which is different. And you addicted
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: to winning, yes, I am. I'm addicted to the success.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: That's the thing, really right.
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: Yes, I think so. And I think it's not something bad.
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: I think it's good. It's it motivate me. And I
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: have to go to the gym at least thirty forty minutes.
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: But this will make the difference in the end of
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: the day. You understand, if you.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: Do not do it that word you miss one the
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: next day.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: If you it's two sessions as you lost. And I
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: know at the end of the day in the hand,
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: they're going to make a huge difference. This is why
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: I'm Teley four and I look indigate. I remember when
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: I was eighteen, nineteen twenties. I'm always looked to see
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: the best players that mister Roy, Ferdinand Roy King.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: And the gigs.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: This is why I have the successful that I have
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: and logevity because I take care of my body, my mentality,
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: my head. Because I see these guys and I learned
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: from them. When you try and give advice to these
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: younger players, what do you say to them?
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: What do you try and tide them.
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: To be like? I think the best advice. I'm not
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: the kind of guys to like to give advice is
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: a perfect to be as an example, because I'm an example.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: I'm there every morning and do it with them stuff.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: I'm probably the first ones to arrive and the last
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: one to go out. I think the details speak for itself.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: So that's ink a few interesting words. A system which
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: is upon the page. You also say mentality, How crucial
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: is that? Can you be successful if the mentality is impossible?
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: I think it's the main point.
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: I'm always speaking with my friends and we have a
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: shot about football, the games, and they all speak.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: About the system.
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: But the system which is useful if the mentality it's it's.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: Not there in the pitch. This is why I.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: Say we have a long way to improve, because for me,
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: the most important things is for you to look yourself
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: and say I can do it better.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: I can. I can tell I can.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: Help the team much much more. The system is important, Yeah,
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: is important. Everything is important. The small details make the
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: huge difference in the end of the day. But for me,
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: the most important thing is the mentality for you to
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: be help the team, the right mentality, self talk, positive.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: I think it's all the details depend on you, not
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: the coaches, defans, the press depends on you. If you
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: are proud of yourself and you have some dignity, I
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: think you have to do it much more. This is
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: why I'm as people know, I'm a challenge person. I
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: like to, you know, to challenge first of all myself.
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: Not I think it's the most important.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: It's great.
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: This is give me motivation to still work hard and
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: better in my job.
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: But they have to say.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: To be in my shoes is not easy.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: But I'm not. I'm not complaining.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: I just I just one say that I'm feel happy
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: all this happened because the reason the reason is I'm
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: unbelievable inside the pitch. This is why the people are
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: so much interesting on.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: Me the league.
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: To win the league, it's a marathon, it's not a
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: sprint or under metal sprint.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: They have to be consistency. The best players always follow
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: the best players.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: They want to be in the top of the game
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: because they are the ones.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: They are there. You know, you cannot rest or sleep
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: because the other one can pass you.
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: Of course we fight with everyone, with Neymar, with Messi,
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: with Lewandowski, with diguay In, you know, with the top
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: of the best players in the world. So operations is
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: healthy and we fight, you know, to be the best.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: This is why. It's my main point, it's my motivation.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: It's to be better than them, than them here after here.
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: In my opinion, the main point is they should come in.
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: I it's argue you should be.
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: Is there anything that Lionel maxim respect to them opinions.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: I respect your opinions.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: Maybe in your opinions is better than me, but in
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: my mind I'm better than him.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: For example, is that rivalry a good thing for me?
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: Rival don't exist? The means of this world is not
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: don't exist. Rivals is in war.
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: This is it. We have rivals in football. Now it's
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: it's just a game, and not just any games. I'm
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: in a train like that and at home with my sisters,
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: with my mom, with my nephews. I'm always try to
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: competit your hard and try to win.
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: I'm like that, you know, I'm not. I'm not.
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: I've never changed because I like I like this, I
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: like what I do I like my life. I'm a
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: happy person. When I'm twelve years old, most of the
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: people told me, Christian, you are a very very good
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: talent player, but you are very skinny, very slim.
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: And I put in my mind the body we can improve.
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: I can improve. You got gym, dedication and artwork.
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: You can improve. So I improve myself. You have to work.
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: I try to do it almost every day.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: This is why I'm in a top level many many years,
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: because I do it extra outside the pitch, because I
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: really like to put myself in a pressure to see
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: what I can can do. Maybe sometimes I agree maybe
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: I have a bad image in the pitch because I'm
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: too serious. I take serious. But if you really know me,
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: if you are my friends, if you live inside to
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: my house, if you share the day with me, you
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: will know that I hate to lost the people who
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: call me arrogant, most of them, I like, you know,
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: one day to sit with them and to have a
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: you know, a shot with them to see which way
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: they see that I am arrogant, because they I think
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: they have to.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: To sit with me, to speak with me to know
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: who is real. Christiano, what's your secrets? Because you're showing
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: no signs of slowing down. Secrets don't exist. Secrets.
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: The secret is dedication and artwork. You know, to be
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: able to work hundred percent all the time. This is
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: if exists words, it's this is my secret. Who is
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: the last years as a business, I saw many, many
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: things that I'm disappointing. The passion for the game still intacts,
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: but in the same way I say, I saw other
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: things as well, which is surprise me. But in the
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: same way, it's part of the business because if you
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: see the world how it is in the moment, it's
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: it's all business.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: Everyone take on itself, every want.
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: There are more individual we have one gain after three
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: four you have to be in the national film preparation
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: for the World Cup.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: It's hard.
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: Sometimes you have to sell everything and be with your family.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: Take the best decisions.
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: And in this summer I didn't feel comfortable. I feel
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: incomfortable the way they treat me, especially the press. They
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: doubt about me, the professional that I am. It's impossible
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: to be twenty one in the top of the game
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: if you're not professional it they doubt about me, which
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: is make me feel very, very very sad because in
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: my life I'm always one of the best professional This
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: is why I still playing high level.
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: I'm always saying it's all package. You know.
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: First of all, it's the talent helps a lot, of course,
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: but of course the ethic of work. You have to
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: put in your mind ethich of work when you are professional.
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: So and of course my dreaming coming through I was professional.
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: IM playing the best clob in the worlds. I want
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: the most important trophies. So I'm glad to be in
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: this position.
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: But of course this.
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: Is not coming from the sky or I indicate myself
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: and I'm working hard, and this is why the goals
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: and all the achievements that I get coming from dedication
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: and artwork. In the beginning, when I was young, very young,
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: I did a lot and do extra training to improve
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: my you know, my skills, the drillings and everything. But
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: you know, I think you working well because you know
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: what I am today is started from that moment that
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: I that I did the weights in my feets and
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: jumping and do drillings and I take it off and
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: I feel more faster. So it was funny and I
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: remember so good, and I'm happy to have this memory.
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: What I did the last two let's say fifteen years.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: So it's good, it's good improvement.
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: So this is why I've tried to do, to.
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: Be good, to be in a good shape and try
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: to enjoy the people.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: This is what I love to do.
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: I have to improve and I want to improve, and
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: I see myself to do.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: It's when I'm retired to speak.
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: From millions of people advices how to be a professional player,
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: how to maintain your longevity. How I'm not psycholog but
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: I passed through many, many things, and I can you.
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: Advise a bubble not to win?
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: How to win?
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: Which is the most important.
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: I think it's the result of that I have experienced
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: to I can help many, many people in that way.
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: If they want my help, I will listen to it.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: Right for sure, especially the young people.
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: I want to be with the young people, to speak
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: with them, not only for them, but for the fathers
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: as well, to put them in in a white spot.
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: I see football now as a business. To be honest,
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: I don't understand the treat you. The treat players like
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: a piece of meat. I say, yes, you say everything.
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: It's true. When they want you, when.
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: They they count with you, they give you everything. When
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: they don't, they try to make a hard life to you,
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: I see football. I'm always saying it was the toughest
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: time in my life. It was when I left my
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: family with eleven years old to live in a different world,
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: which is Lisbon, in the same country, but looked like
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: it's a different.
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: Part of the world.
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: I was cry almost every day to miss my family.
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: But I'm not regret because it was probably the more intense,
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: more intense moments in my life that I live. True,
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: so without sacrifice, I cannot win nothing. So I did
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: an unbelievable sacrifice my family too, and I think it
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: was I think I I did a good option. It's
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: a stupid question when people say they are not the same.
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: Nobody is the same day by day. We're getting hold
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: every one of us. You understand, it's normal. You have
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: to adapt, and I think nobody in this game. I
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: have this brain that adapts with this age. I'm not
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: going to be cocky to say that I'm the same
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: that when I as twenty, of course no, but I'm
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: adapt and I'd be smart to know my strength, what
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: I'm good to do.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: And I'm still playing high.
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: Level and I score goals, and I will continue to
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: score goals. If my mind is clear and happy, and
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: if the people surround me that helped me to be
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: a successful player, especially the coach, of president and directives.
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: But when you feel that the energy don't go surround you,
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: it's difficult you.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: To be yourself. Which has happened. This is what's happened
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: with me.
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: When I arrive in Manchester, Nity, I always be available
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: to help the team to do too good things, to
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: put in the right spots to compete with the best teams.
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: But it awards to advise to the club because the
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: trophies that are one individual collective. I think I can
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: help a lot. But when the infrastructure is not good,
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: they criticize me when I don't speak. Of course, when
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna speak, the gins criticize me even more. But
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: it's something that I can. I can deal with that.
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: I know I'm going to disappoint a few people. Maybe
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: I'm going to make up a few people, but it
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: is what it is. The life is. It's completely difficult.
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: We have obstacles in our lives and I will keep
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: running to fight against the people who don't believe me.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: And the life is a challenge and I want to people,
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: the people that they are wrong.
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: Nobody is perfect. Episodes in the life we all have.
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: It's part of the human beings. It's part of me
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: to be a human being and father as well.
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: I always will.
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: Commit a mistakes, But I don't know. It's hard to
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: tell you right now what's going to happen the World Cup,
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: because my focus is on for the World Cup, for
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: the Portugal mention up, proud of yourself and look in
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: the mirror and say, listen, I give everything, and.
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: I think we have to believe on that. If not,
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: it will be a nightmare.
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: Sure, I'm in instead of football what I did and
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: when I'm continue to do.
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: But one of the best players in history.
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: For me, the number one in history, but for some
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: fans the number one for another one the second doesn't matter.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: I know I'm instead of football, one of the greatest
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: pm When you have a tombstone when you die, and
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: you have your own tombstone, Okay, And he says, here lies.
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: Cristiano Ronaldo, how do you like to be remembered.
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: As a man? Write your own two staff number one,
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: not number seven, number one. See in the end to you,
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: it's all about being number one, isn't it. That's really
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: what drives you. You don't want to be second, No,
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: you don't want to be third. I don't know this number,
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: I don't know that number.
