Cristiano did not have al lot of injuries. you're probably thinking of r9 Ronaldo.
This is true, but Ronaldo have been struggling with his left knee since 2014, it's a chronic injury that needs constant attention (by Ronaldo's own admission)
@@mebarkiimad8999 true but thats not a serious injury like ronaldo nazarios injuries.. he doesnt have to get surgery for it each time..and he doesnt miss any games.. cristiano ronaldo always plays almost all the games
@@rebpol yeah, i know
But he changed his style (less running and dribbling) ever since that injury.
@@mebarkiimad8999 not so much becuase of his injury.. it is correct that he played some world cups and europe cups injured, they used the matches as training for him to get back into rhythm and get better as the tournaments the goes on.. so that he would be top fit during the finals.. perfect example of that is the eurocup of 2016.. he started injured but going to the semifinal and after that the final he was fully fit.. only unfortunately he got injured during the final by getting a big tackle.. i suggest you watch: "the tactical evolutiom of cristiano ronaldo" its 2 parts.. but it shows how he changed his playing style and why.. it had nothing to do with injuries but more about how different teams and coaches play.. and yess he has made some sacrifices for his body, but thats not for injuries, but so that he could get the best out of his own body
@@rebpol i know he evolved to a forward mainly to become more effective, but i can imagine this injury made him evolve sooner than later.
The 2014 world cup and 2014 UCL final are the main games in Which you see this injury taking a toll on his performance.
Of course he recovered from it afterwards.
He barely even gets injured. Y’all are probably thinking of R9. But Cristiano has to be the most consistent player of all time. He rarely gets injured. He’s like the LeBron James of football.
LeBron is the Cr7 of basketball
@@acedup00 i mean didn’t lebron had cramps when the ac went off? Meanwhile ronaldo and football players play rain or shine and snow. 🤣
@@acedup00 try running up and down non stop for 12 minutes then we'll talk lol
@@acedup00 im no basketball fan. But I have played and I can tell its lot more tiring. Specially if you not playing at Centre or PF. Stop, run, stop, run, mark ur man, jump and stop running. Its a hardcore cardio.
If I have to draw parallels CR7 is more like kobe and Lebron. I personally like to say kobe, because of the beast mentality
@@acedup00 nope buddy, one proper basket ball game can kick the shit out of you. But understand what your intentions are. The NBA basketball is lil different with all that drama stuff. But if you play with FIBA rules, it wouldn't be the same.
Also, you should be considering the number of games. They place 2-4 games in a week. So, the timeouts and stopwatch timer is much needed.
Ronaldo kept himself in amazing shape given the amount of tackles he's gotten. The injury that forced him to change his game though was before the 2014 world cup, where he decided to take part in the competition instead of making a full recovery. His dribbling and speed wasn't the same after that so he began the transition away from a showman into a prolific goalscorer. Before Messi became relevant, people used to make dribbling videos comparing young Ronaldo and Ronaldinho which speaks for itself
You said in the vid that most these defenders kinda trash,These guys are all pros, he’s playing against the best of the best internationally. He’s just so good that he’s making them look like ametures.
Forget it they probably never played football so it's normal speak like that...
Nooooo he’s a messi fan and idk how y’all can’t see that he’s definitely hating on ronaldo like always making excuses to make him look bad bro
3:04 that’s The Brazilian Ronaldo who had a lot of injuries in his career, but Cristiano Ronaldo rarely gets injured.
He had one big career threatening injury to his knee. Which still affects his play.
Thats the reason he stopped playing at winger and lost pace. Prior to 2014, CR7 known for long range bullet shots and quick dribblings.
Ronaldo got injured a lot but the media hardly shows it.
Cristiano Ronaldo at like the age of 33 i think when he joined juve and did his medical it was said he was in the physical condition of a 20 year old
CR7 is 35
@@cynthiared4190 and he was 33 when he joined juventus?
Well im 20 years old with physical condition of 45
@@XTheLolX301 same
@@mgoHSC*34
The dude on the left clearly never played football. Saying "Why don't they just get the ball". If only it was that simple bruh.....
They are saying Ronaldo doesn’t seem that fast when he really was one of the fastest when he was younger. If not the fastest. The thing with Ronaldo is the same with Bale, Robben and even Aubameyang, because they are tall players they don’t seem as fast as smaller players.
Yeah, it's all the size. He's easily the most athletically gifted player I've ever seen. Not just athletic for soccer, athletic for anything. He could be playing NBA ball or be a wide receiver / cornerback in the NFL if he had chosen another sport. A true super-athlete, damn fun to watch.
No ronaldinho was the most atheltic, ronaldo was the most disciplined footballer
@@acedup00 i do athletic is being gifted and being quick and speed no injury etc athletic discipline is diet, lifestyle change, training constant thats a little bit a part of atlhetic the mindset u mean ?
@@acedup00 accelration and running with ball dinho had both too
@@unknownunknown3692 Ronaldinho the most athletic, what the hell are you smoking? Ronaldinho was a miracle in the football World, a true prodigy in the game but he was lazy and worse than that, he smoked, drink and was in parties everytime he could. That's why his career declined that quick though his sheer talent kept him afloat. Cristiano is by far the most athletic football player that we ever see thus far. He is literally the Michael Jordan of football.
“He must be like a superb dancer.” Great commentary👌
He got a lot of bodies I’m surprise he ain’t lock up yet 😂😂😂😂 btw good reaction keep it up 🔥🔥
You should know that cristiano ronaldo has always been one of the fastest players.. even with 34 years of age, he broke a speed record on the 100meters during the world cup.. he is one of the fastest accelerating and one of the fastest if not the fastest in speedsters.. thats why counter attacks almost always work with cristiano in your team, since his defence to offence transitions are unmatched
"its kinda alot like actual football" the disrespect 😂 full has been lost, this is the real football acording to the world lol
Thx for reacting to this video, it was great to watch keep up the good job
Young Ronaldo had a bag full of tricks, he was a showman, so much so, defenders would tackle him constantly or try injure him repetedly just because they were getting humiliated.
It's just relating it to something us Americans understand a bit better. It's hard to see in the course of a game, when you see highlights of his dribbling or his headers, it becomes obvious. To us, just speed or acceleration by itself doesn't seem that special by itself, but when you see his size and his jumping/cutting ability, it becomes obvious to us that he's a super-athlete. Like baseball, soccer to us is more of an everyman's sport. You can still be a great player through hard work and repetition and being highly skilled. But athletically, Cristiano is on the level of a top wide receiver in American football, or a special NBA player. True athletic freaks that are big, strong, fast, quick, elusive, all in one. It's a very rare combination, and to see it in any sport is such a pleasure to watch. Awe-inspiring.
@@pgame20 all good bro i was just messing with them. And totally agree well said 🤝
He is the best player I’ve ever seen, a complete athlete. Almost never gets injured and his consistency is amazing.
He’s the goat
Young ronaldo already used to score a lot of goals, he even had 40+ goal seasons. As he got older he started to dribble less but became more effective as a player and consistently scored 50-60 goals a season for like 7-8 years straight, which is insane considering that Lewandowski was the only player in europe to score over 50 goals last season. This video was just more about his skills but young ronaldo actually scored alot of bangers! Thanks for the reaction 🙏🏻
He never gets injuries, in fact, he is one of the player with more healthy body and he is 35.
The doctors said that he has a body of a 24 years old person
Young cristiano was like a starved leopard who was released after years, he was just unstoppable
6:30 🤯🤯🤯😱😱😱
If he started doing these moves again ......damn
I don’t know if you guys really know who Ronaldo is , if we talking young Ronaldo , all these young players now have nothing on young Ronaldo ( young Ronaldo will kill mbappe rn ) , this guy is the greatest ATHLETE OF ALL TIME , when he was young the fastest player , even in his 20’s , even NOW he is still one OF THE FASTEST PLAYERS IN THE WORLD
Fun fact for you guys; Ronaldo is 9 international goals away from becoming the all time leading international goalscorer and 26 goals away from becoming the leading all time official goal scorer.
CR7 played as a winger when he was young, he was insanely quick, fast, dribler, then he moved to Real and started to play CF, and now at the age of 35, he keeps scoring lots of goals, a true Legend.
Sad seing CR7 and Messi in their final years...but glad and blessed to see them for almost 2 decades...2 monsters
🔥🔥🔥 bringing back some memories!! Love the content 💯
Cristiano ronaldo is the Greatest of All Time..he did not had any injury it was the other ronaldo(r9)😊
Great channel🔥🐐
That "pose" at 8:04 is because he's flicking that ball to the other side of his foot, then around the guy in front of him, and he has to land that way. double-tapping the ball, once on one side, once on the other. It's ridiculously hard for everyone but him and messi and about 10 others.
Love these videos. absolutely hilarious commentary
Great video guys. I hear you talk about Ronaldo being quick but maybe not super fast. Just to give you a little perspective on how much of a beast Goatnaldo is. For being 6' 2" he has unbelievable cuts and acceleration for his height which you don't typically see in taller footballers. That's why you see him wrecking players left and right with his crossovers, elasticos, reverse elasticos, jukes and feints among other skills. As far as top speed goes Ronaldo was clocked at a top speed of 34 km/h(21.127 mph) at the 2018 World Cup at the age of 33. He had the fastest clocked speed out of all the footballers at the World Cup. Unbelievable for a 33 year old. To put that into perspective, Julio Jones in the NFL top speed during a game was 21.13 mph and Chris Thompson at 21.19 mph. Granted they have pads on but Ronaldo's top speed is up there with the fastest NFL players. Ronaldo has consistently been one of the top 10 fastest footballers in the world for over 10 years. Even at the age of 34 in 2019, Ronaldo was the second fastest footballer in the Serie A Italian league and fastest striker. Just imagine if they clocked him in his 20's. And yes, Ronaldo is faster than Messi who has a top speed of 32.5 km/h(20.3 mph).
Another interesting fact about Ronaldo is his vertical jump is 3 inches higher than the average NBA player. The guy is a beast and the 🐐
You can get a good idea of how high Ronaldo jumps by watching Cristiano Ronaldo headers that violate the laws of physics
He was the fastest footballer with or without the ball❤️
Young Ronaldo (at Sporting and first two or three years of Manchester) couldn't care less about scoring goals. All he cared about was putting on a show. He even got heavily crictized by teamates when he arrived in Machester 'cause of this attitude.
Man's been a beast since day one
I think you guys got the wrong Ronaldo I think they were talking about R9 that's the Brazilian version cause you said he got injured but only R9's career was hindered by injuries
He was a midfielder during in the young age in Manchester united. Later gone to wing and forward.
Thank you guys
Did my boy here actually refer to American football as “actual” football???!!! 🤦♂️
He wasnt wrong. Learn your history and the etymology
As a Messi Fan, the guy with the glasses straight hating at every opportunity. Young Ronaldo was both fast & quick. Simply unstoppable really
All time of all national teams top scorer, all time top scorer of Champions League, 4 golden foot, 5 Balon d' or, all time league champion of 3 different leagues, all time top scorer ever (763 'till today), simply the real GOAT
15:10 - 15:23 “They should’ve put some goals in this....” Man on the right almost falling asleep then says “Damn” 😂 you guys are funny. I’m a big soccer fan and more than watching it, I like to play it. It’s cool to see you’re interest, I enjoy these reaction videos. keep it up 👍🏽
ahhh this bring a memories when he wasnt a goal scorer , now he seems obsessed of records and long career , avoiding too damn much injury , flopping diving
Mhmhssc pmbtvsmsrsc lmao just because he breaks them doesn’t mean he’s obsessed with them. What do you want him to do not play football or something 😂 and literally what’s wrong with wanting to have a long career and doing what you love for a living. And wouldn’t anyone want to avoid injuries? Why would players want to get injured. And Ronaldo has been a diver
Sure. Now he is wrong to score goals, avoid injury and break records. SMH. it is trully impossible to please everyone.
It's called Acceleration and Sprint Speed
Acceleration = How fast can get to you Top speed (or how much time it takes you to get to your top speed)
Sprint Speed = Your top speed!
It's just like a car, for example a car might have 250 Km/h at its top speed (sprint speed) but it's acceleration can be 0-60 in 5 seconds
R9 dealt with a lot of injuries cristiano ronaldo has been fit all his life he just had a knee injury in 2014 world cup but still played through it
U guys have to understand that because he has a fantastic strike from both feet it's very difficult to defend pre shot because you'll never know wich side he's gonna pick, that's why defenders can't anticipate is moves.
Young Ronaldo is machine and now he's a beast
Ronaldo didnt have alot of injuries but he did have a particular injury in which he had to adapt his style of play into more of a goalscorer than a dribbler. Also Ronaldo is just fast period.
Guys! Please react to the top 20 fastest fotballers 2020. There u can see the fastest players in the world. Some of them run 36km/h+. Just discovered you guys a few days ago, and already one of my fave reaction channels! Big fan from Norway!
There is no one who surpassed the 36 KM/H 22.3 MP/H as a footballer, the only one with the mondial record is Mbappe who got 36km/h and on the second is another dude with 35.7km/h, on the third is another guy with 35.5km/h.
Still waiting for that Zidane reaction. Feed us!
Loved this reaction. I don't even like him that much as a player, but you can't hate on the guy, he's one of the first SUPER-athletes I've seen out there. Not athletic for soccer. Athletic for anything. The guy could be hooping or playing WR/CB, no doubt in my mind. Go check out F2 challenging people to replicate his highest header. Very few players are even physically capable of that much speed and bounce. He's undeniably fun to watch.
He IS fast! Fast as hell!
Cristiano has managed to stay injury free pretty much his whole career, he is 36 now so ofcourse has slowed down physically
Yo Ronaldo is quick af😂 they made him race bolt
Nah Ronaldo is known for his speed well back in then days basically up until his Madrid years, he is fast as fuck
I see you guys commenting on defenders so this is my recommendation react to SERGIO RAMOS - THE GLADIATOR u will thank me later!!!
He was the fastest player then and the defenders u were talking about are regarded as premier league legends 🙇🏻🐐he played against legendary defenders coz he was in the bst league in the world
Young CR was probably the fastest and quickest player in the world. If i recall correctly, he once made a 100m time good enough to apply to the Olympics. You can defend a player if he is either quick, fast or technical. But CR was quick, fast, technical AND would overpower most players even at such young age. He had too many options and the skills to perform any of them.
CR knew that this flamboyant football is not sustainable. Wingers that use speed this much won't last much as they either get injured or start losing a step or two with time. That's why he started to change his game during his mid 20s and slowly became stronger, heavier and more interested in scoring goals than make all those runs for the sake of other strikers.
Now at 35 he changed his game again. He plays way more near the box, saves his runs for when he needs to and lost weight to keep him light in his feet. He evolved other things like shot precision, leadership and he seems to be a better aerial player than he ever was. When he really needs to, he is still able to out jump or outrun trough quick bursts any other player.
This guy is the epitome of perfection. He took care of his body since day 1 and always knew what to do to stay at the top for so many years. Most players get stuck in their ways and rather quit the game than reinvent themselves.
The clocked his Speed at 21.37 MPH when he was over 30... he was way faster at this age
I'm a new subscriber,I really liked your personality,no one would get bored from you,love you brother😎😎
Cristiano is made of steel! He be playing on one leg and it’s enough 🤣
Ronaldo hardly had any injuries through out his career (so far) and as for the Messi or Ronaldo debate I'm firmly on the side of Ronaldo being the best player. He (in my opinion) is faster, stronger, better in the air, better from set pieces, more consistent, he always performs in the biggest games, he is far more enjoyable to watch (much fancier skills and back and shoulder passes) Ronaldo hits massive numbers and entertains and that's before you even start on the fact that he has won things in 4 leagues including the three biggest in the world and the European cup triumph with Portugal. Messi has had a team built around him since he was a teenager, everything based around him and put in place to get the most out of him and has never performed at his best for Argentina but seriously its like saying the 2nd most beautiful women in the world is ugly or something when clearly that isn't the case. we are talking about the best 2 players in the world for quite some time if not ever, just because i believe Ronaldo edges it I am by no means a Messi hater, i think we are incredibly lucky to be able to have two players of such incredible ability and we should just cherish and enjoy the ride while we still can.
Young CR7: catching bodies and fucking up everyone, putting on a show
CR7 Now: Scoring goals like crazy, smarter player, breaking records, winning trophies
He was the fastest palyer before some youngsters .But he is still in top six with speed of 34.something kmph or 21.something miles per hour.
Ronaldo doesn't get injured often. The only injurey that has affected him was the one he got six years ago prior to the world cup 2014. That injury also affected his free kick performance as well.....as he has started to decline in his free kick performance or free kick scoring ability right after the injury. Anyways the old Ronaldo is the most complete player .....the young one was more of a dribbler and less of a finisher but the old Ronaldo has brought dribbling and finishing in to balance and he can do everything!!!
11:15 his name is Patrick Vieira ! One of the Best Midfielder of his generation !
Cristiano Ronaldo did not have significant injuries in his career and his knees are not fucked. He still jumps 2,50 m for a header.
If you guys want to shift gears a little, watch "Barcelona Tiki Taka 2009-2015". That's part of how Messi won so many championships. Team soccer at it's finest.
Never remember Ronaldo being injured ...been watching soccer since 2008 and remember, Ronaldo has dominated in 3 leagues...England, Spain, and Italy...Messi has only played in Spain
CR7 was never an injury player, and still at the top at 35 years old bro!
He was the person how probabli have less injuried in his carreer
lol about time i been sending this! 👌
C.Ronaldo did not have injuries... he had a heart problem...the doctor told him he can t play football or he s gonna die.... well nowdays he s a living legend xd
Watch Cristiano Ronaldo vs Leeds in 2003 to see how teams deal with him
Young Ronaldo was phenomenal 🥇🔥🔥👌
Ronaldo injured his knee which affected his free kick ability but he's one of the fittest players ever. Never had a lot of injuries after that. You might be thinking of Ronaldinho or Brazilian Ronaldo.
He's actually really fast theres a clip out there of him nearing Usain Bolt like speeds on the field running after the ball. It's him doing 96m in 10s and Bolt doing 100m in 9,58s. His jumping is also higher than the average nba player
The video showed he has the best footwork in the game!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
He was all time fast players in football
As a defender, you don’t want to get caught ball watching too much. The ball will always move faster then you will. The player with the ball cant. It’s more important to block the goal, passing lanes and running lanes then it is to tackle the ball. If you go to where the ball IS, you’ll miss it. You have to predict where it’s going and with a player like Ronaldo, you really have no idea so most defenders will just focus on making sure they don’t give up an easy run and end up on his highlight reel.
Last thing you want to do is over commit and let a player as fast as Ronaldo have a free run towards your goal
This dude is a cyborg, hes more durable than lebron. The other ronlado's R9 career got ruined by injuries
THE GOAT
The Goat 🐐
Something Americans dont realise is that sportsman dont always have to be 8ft tall and 250pds. theses guys rarely break 200pounds. This is why ronaldo doesnt dmg his knees that much. If Lebron or brady did the same thing their knees would break. Soccer is played world wide cause doesnt matter if ur 5ft or 7ft, you can be as successful as Messi (5ft6) and Ronaldo (6ft6).
Ronaldo doesn't have a lot of injuries however he was a permanent injury in his right knee that's why he stopped doing so many dribbles and turned into a goal machine
And Ronaldo was indeed for many year the Fastest player and he still his like top 15 with 35 years on his ID card lmao
CR7 never had any major injuries, you've got him mixed up with R9 he's the one that that major knee injuries which shortened his career
Guy on the left thinks he knows so much about football but in reality he's so ignorant and delusional.
In his prime, Ronaldo was widely considered as the fastest player in the world, and before Messi showed up, CR7 was considered as the most skilled dribbler in the world.
What did I say that came off ignorant? We literally say we know nothing about the sport and are trying to learn?
It’s all opinion based at the end of the day
@@DLS4 i don't know man, I'm just getting pure hate vibes from you towards Ronaldo.
I know Messi is your guy but he's only a hair greater than Ronaldo.
Both should be applauded and appreciated.
prince imed Naw see that’s the thing I never hate and I don’t want you to think that. I could see why you would think that tho but it’s all just my opinion. I know Ronaldo is GREAT maybe I should adjust my tone when addressing him. Nothing but respect to that man
@@DLS4 maybe I'm just assuming bro, I'm sorry bro it is your opinion anyways.
Keep up the litty content ❤️❤️
