Ronaldo is one of the most talented soccer players in the world today. His sublime skills matched by his blistering speed is one heck of a combination. Don't think that he doesn't have technique, I believe he is one of the most technically sound players in the world gae. Ronaldo's roots is in Rio where he still visits often. He started off like thousands of other Brazilian kids, playing soccer outside their home, joining the local club. But fortunately, he was one of the lucky few. He was spotted ( at what is considered a late age in foball ) at the age of 14 and from then on, you know the rest of the story. 9 medals at the age of 23 is not bad.
