It must be so painful for Ronaldo who lost his father at the young age of 20, which means his father was not alive to witness his great football career achievements such as winning five Champions League titles and five Ballon d’Ors, including leading his country to Euro 2016 and Nations League Glory.

However, Ronaldo has requested for the video footage in order to show his family.

“I think the interview would be funny, but I didn’t expect to cry. But I never saw these images. I don’t know where you… I have to have these images to show my family”
