Football is a diverse and inclusive sport, there are many people like the hammer of the striker, thinking that beautiful goals are the key to winning; some people worship the indulgence of the fast horses on the flanks, and the pleasure of accelerating in a straight line is what they pursue; some people recommend the strategizing of the midfield commander, 11 people without a navigator can only be scattered; some people appreciate the indestructible strength of the defensive backbone, and it is their guarantee that gives the team the capital to move forward. However, no matter which position you recognize more and which role you are more enthusiastic about, self-discipline attributes are essential, without self-discipline, there is no possibility of success; without self-discipline, even the best talent is difficult to get the space to exert.
Self-discipline like him, when the 36-year-old C Ronaldo is still active in football, when the 36-year-old C Ronaldo can still maintain the efficiency of scoring goals, even if you are not his fans, you have to admit his greatness. 2021 is far from the end, and the 36-year-old C Ronaldo fuel tank is very "full". Next year, Ronaldo can continue to fight, the World Cup is waiting for him; in the future, the legendary story will continue and continue to write a new chapter.
Number says C Ronaldo 2021: data online, the president is not old
Throughout the calendar year of 2021, Cristiano Ronaldo played a total of 60 matches, including 39 league games (24 in Serie A and 15 in the Premier League), 7 in the Champions League (Manchester United - 5 group games, Juventus - 2 knockout matches), 11 national team regular matches (4 in the European Cup, 7 in the World Preliminaries) and 3 in the national friendlys. For the 36-year-old veteran, this attendance rate is indeed too high. It is the self-discipline that C Ronaldo has insisted on for several years, which has replaced the current "body of steel" and admiration.
It's not enough to play, scoring as a striker is king. In 2021, Ronaldo can fight and his personal status is still online, which is why all coaches still believe in him and the system relies on him. 47 goals are enough to prove that he is still great. At the end of Juventus, although there were certain problems with the compatibility of Ronaldo and the team, and the atmosphere in the Bianconeri team was not too good, the president still shot the ball into the opponent's net 17 times in 24 Serie A appearances, which was extremely efficient. In the World Preliminary Round and Friendly Matches, the rhythm of each goal was basically maintained, and it was not at all obvious that this was the appearance of a 36-year-old veteran.
The same goes for the European Championship. Such a high level of competition is enough to see the individual's state, C Ronaldo scored 5 goals in 4 games, although unfortunately stopped in the knockout rounds, but this play is brilliant enough. After a break, he decided to join Manchester United and return to the place where the dream began, C Ronaldo did not let the former beauty become the embarrassment of reunion, 13 Premier League games 7 goals 2 assists, 5 Champions League 6 goals to lead the team into the knockout round, is his return gift. More than a decade later, Cristiano is still the king of the theater of dreams. In the final battle of 2021, he also passed the team to lead the team to take Burnley.
Go back to where your dream began and take on new challenges
In the later years of Juventus, C Ronaldo seemed to be "forced" to the brink of retirement. The "discord" with the team has been hyped up by the media, and the former king of the ball seems to have become the "sinner" who destroys the atmosphere of the Zebra Army and seriously disrupts the rhythm of the locker room. At the time of the combination, you and I have long become clouds, the reality of life, so that sweet each other forget the beauty of the past, the report card in front of you has become a barrier that cannot be bypassed.
Winning the Champions League trophy is a promise made by Cristiano Ronaldo for the first time in the Apennines. He tried, he struggled, he gave his life, but unfortunately the opposite always revolved around the Juve years, and perhaps the Portuguese at that time wondered if they had passed the peak of their careers. The arrangement of Bologna in the final round has clearly seen the meaning of the club, and the breakup can only be the only option. They owe nothing to each other, and they have been passers-by since then.
However, there are still thousands of mountains and rivers between "saying" and "doing", although the breakup is a foregone conclusion, but it is really not so easy to find a home. When Lisbon and Madrid were "interested", when another team in Manchester came up with an "idea", when the major league teams were all looking at each other, it was Ferguson who called Ronaldo to confidence: go home, back to where the dream began. It's the old lord again, the transfer window again, and it's another hot summer. Time seems to have been pulled back to more than a decade ago.
Back at Manchester United again, the people around you are gone, but the familiar shouts still ring out for you. From earrings, curls, endless bicycles, to the golden ball, trophies, the peak of football honor, C Ronaldo has undergone all kinds of tempering, he has all the beauty that can be in this world, he is already a mountain that everyone admires. But the game is not to appreciate the conference, no one cares who you are in the cruel 90 minutes, scoring is king, and winning is the fundamental. Unlike the hesitation and ambition when I first entered the Theater of Dreams, this time waiting for the Portuguese is more like a challenge.
That's the challenge written by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, since the miracle created after the "magical takeover", he has gradually become the "music" in the mouths of the fans, conservative employment with a fighting style of play, making the Red Devils very unstable; the difficulty of reaching the championship trophy is unacceptable to this top club. That was a challenge written by glazer management, and after spending a lot of money to bring in a number of players, they not only failed to achieve a significant improvement in performance, but also had some downward trend, encountering ruthless ridicule from the outside world. That is also the challenge written by the fans, "C Ronaldo has aged" words circulated in the market, you are naturally not able to hear such words, and accepting the challenge is the answer you give.
The murderous spirit is still there, you are still a teenager
After waiting for several days, No. 7 Ronaldo was finally written into the starting list of Manchester United again. This is more than 4,000 days and nights of waiting, and it is also a reproduction of the stories of the past. However, unlike the full of expectations for the debut, this time you have a lot more responsibilities, the pressure is indeed very large, even your iron fans can't help but sweat, can you still adapt to the most fierce competition in the world? Are you, or aren't you the expected dancing teenager?
Soon, you shut up the voices of doubt with your actual performance. Newcastle, who had been unable to attack for a long time, showed timidity before the end of the first half, Greenwood's low flat ball shot the level, and Woodman's offhand made Nee smell the score. The bloodthirsty lion will never give up the pursuit of prey, and the explosive power is displayed at this moment, which is the accumulation of unremitting exercise for more than ten years, and it is never subject to the tempering of quality. Running, speeding up, observing, or so flexible and agile, getting rid of, power, shooting, or so in one go. Yesterday is no longer yesterday, but yesterday can be repeated.
But this Manchester United is no longer yesterday's invincible division, after C Ronaldo staged a memory kill, Newcastle's ruthless attack told outsiders that they did not want to be the background board of this show. After the start of the second half, St. Mark Schimman's high-speed insertion repeatedly threatened the Red Devils' gate, and the danger signals resounded through the stadium. Finally, in the 56th minute, their efforts made de Gea, who had been the savior of the previous few times helpless, and Manquillo's score was logical, 1-1, and Manchester United, who could no longer lose points, came to a desperate situation.
"Desperate to see Ronaldo", this sentence is fulfilled again. Just 5 minutes later, Lucasio dribbled the ball and passed it to Ronaldo, who ran at high speed and talked about teenagers, facing the goalkeeper's low shot, showing excellent consciousness and shooting skills. The "top scorer" was perfectly interpreted in this ball, and C Ronaldo's performance was to declare: I, still believable. In the wind and lightning, C Luo got rid of not only the opposing defender, but also his own years of youth. From the green years to the angry horses, from the first temple to the top of glory, time can only change your appearance, but it cannot carve your heart, you are still you, you are still the fleshy Cristiano Ronaldo. It's just a pity that the pace of time is hurried, and when wrinkles also climb up your handsome face, we can only sigh that the years are merciless.
If the first game was still the effect of the "Memories BUFF" blessing, then the two goals of the 2-1 Bern youngsters and 2-1 West Ham were a testament to the real level. Although there are still ups and downs in the team's play, Ronaldo's performance is still reliable, and giving him the ball is equivalent to scoring. The "Bring With 1-0" attribute also applies. But football is after all an 11-person sport, and C Ronaldo's state of mind is difficult to hide Soshaw's tactical problems. After two brittle defeats, the former legend left the team, and Carrick temporarily led the team, waiting for the arrival of Ronnick.
Show your hand in times of crisis
Cristiano Ronaldo, who is already a legend of the team, knows the burden on his shoulders, the goal is not enough, and he has to do more. For a team at the Red Devils' level, qualifying in the Champions League is a basic requirement, but it has been difficult to achieve in recent years. He knows what the fans expect, he knows what the team wants. In the 95th minute, Ronaldo found an opportunity outside the penalty area, looked at the clock reading seconds, remembered the unfavorable situation, and he scored a key shot. Rulli's inability to do so gave the Red Devils the initiative to advance, and Ronaldo's energy saved United's future.
"Those who want to win will certainly not concede defeat." The Red Devils, who played the key game against Atalanta, were demoralized, and after being scored two goals by their opponents, it seemed that defeat was a foregone conclusion. Fortunately, the teammates slowed down in the second half, creating an opportunity for the kill. In the 81st minute, the high-jumping C Ronaldo received a pass from his teammate and smashed into the Atlanta net. Slip on your knees! celebrate! United found a rare ray of light in the darkness. The goal reminds people of Luzhniki's rainy night, your head hammer attack made the Blues goalkeeper Cech helpless; it also reminded people of the 2012/13 season when you met your old club, your air superiority made Evra stunned; and of course, the airwalk against Samp, this non-human performance is too brilliant, this is the unsolvable sign of your career.
In the second leg against Atlanta, the gritty Italians did not want to repeat the mistakes of the past, and they stubbornly dragged the game into the decisive time. It was C Ronaldo again, and the shot from the side of the box in the 91st minute snatched back the opponent's three points and helped the team occupy the first place. In the 78th minute, Ronaldo's breakthrough set the tone for the game and helped the Red Devils qualify for the early qualification. "Over that mountain, you become a mountain."
The four Champions League games, given the disappointment of losing to Aston Villa, the outrageous anger of losing to Liverpool, and the darkest moment of defeat to Watford, make it even more aware of how urgent the crisis really is. The 36-year-old C Luo is still reliable, and the 36-year-old C Luo can still help the building to fall. "Many people's lives are unfinished dreams when they were young; but when they really succeed, young people have become dreams." For Ronaldo, who has stood at the top of the world, this is exactly the case. If only I could be a few years younger, if I could return to the Theater of Dreams sooner.
New year, write a new one
After the new manager Lonnick gradually took over, Manchester United won three consecutive Premier League matches, the momentum gradually returned to the positive range, and the team changed in a good direction. This is gratifying and makes the King of Portugal happy. His return to the team is a new chapter in the legend, in addition to enjoying the treatment of respect and admiration, it is also an unshirkable responsibility to get good results. Both Ronaldo and the team want more.
Under the rule of the German manager, Ronaldo must still be a well-deserved offensive key. If we can activate young people such as Sancho and Rashford, the vitality of United's squad will be enhanced, and it will also be able to greatly use the Portuguese king's ability to grab points and break goals, and the role of passing is also very significant. In addition, the Red Devils have a substitution plan at the beginning of the winter break, and it would be great if they could send out the players who did not play well in the team and reasonably buy new reliable helpers. Overall, Ronaldo and the Red Devils are expected to play in the new year, and they are likely to cooperate to write a new chapter.
In addition to the clubs, the performance of the national team is also worth looking forward to. Euro 2020 ended this summer, and it was many years ago when Cristiano Ronaldo took Portugal to the top. As the defending champions, they hoped to continue to be in good shape, and the strong lineup was also quite optimistic; unfortunately, except that the president was still online, the other teammates were a bit sleepwalking and did not give enough support. In the final game, the Portuguese king scored five goals in 4 games, and the team went to stop in the first round of the knockout round.
Unfortunately, the World Preliminary Tournament team continued its poor form, still failed to win the opponent, and directly advanced to the World Cup. Falling into the knockout rounds, they will meet many strong players directly, and the potential dialogue with the New Branch European champions Italy is also too fascinating. Italian Portuguese will have a team out, C Ronaldo must work hard. This opponent, he is too familiar with, naturally, the opponent also knows him too well.
No matter how to enter the World Cup is the unshirkable responsibility of captain C Ronaldo, he will definitely show 100% fighting spirit, lead the team forward, and get points. In today's era of double pride, which is gradually drifting away, for such a performance, it is indeed once, less than once, and everyone should cherish it.
epilogue
2021 is a different year for C Luo, leaving the dream-chasing Serie A, returning to his second hometown and starting a new journey. In terms of data, he still maintains high efficiency, and he can't see the appearance of the 36-year-old veteran at all; in terms of performance, the president who is still capable of fighting opponents to reverse the kill is still so prosperous. 2022 is also particularly important for Cristiano Ronaldo, the club has opened a new chapter, he has a major mission to carry the revival; the national team is in crisis and difficult, he must stand up without scruples, this is the meaning of the captain's armband, this is the responsibility of the legendary superstar. Come on.
