[0:00](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice) So, the whole food thing, he's obsessed, bro.

[0:02](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=2) You eat the wrong thing, and he calls you out.

[0:03](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=3) He used to eat a lot of quinoa rice, a lot of salmon, just fish, man. That was the secret.

[0:06](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=6) I eat fish, but eating like him, I can't do it. No, okay, wait a second.

[0:08](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=8) You guys would be having dinner, and he'd start saying: "Look, guys, uh... That's wrong."

[0:13](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=13) No, he, he only spoke Portuguese. He speaks English, so he said: "You don't need to speak Italian, you can speak English."

[0:17](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=17) The Italian guy would get mad at him. But he's him, right? He can do that, right, man?

[0:22](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=22) But did he ever give you, like, a, a tip, sort of like: "Hey, but over here."

[0:26](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=26) A technical tip, an actual soccer tip. Off the field or on it? Or... both?

[0:29](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=29) With whoever you have to talk to. On the field, he told me to— that I was coming back too much to get the ball at my feet.

[0:34](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=34) He said: "You're not going to score like that."

[0:36](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=36) You have to attack more—space. Space. Which, these days, is my strong suit, you know?

[0:40](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=40) Wow, so that was his main piece of advice.

[0:42](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=42) Advice. He, the cheerful one, said: “Look, you keep coming way too deep to get the ball at your feet, man. You won't score goals.”

[0:47](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=47) Then I said, “No way, you have to drift around.”

[0:48](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=48) I'm young, I can handle the running. Then he said, “Look, start staying closer to the defenders, when they get the ball, you take off.”

[0:53](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=53) And then, a year or two went by, I started doing that a little, and it started working.

[0:57](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=57) See, the man was right. Yeah. And did he tell you anything else off the field, about life?

[1:01](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=61) That day, I was riding my bike with him before practice.

[1:03](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=63) And then: “So, how are you, are you, into going to parties and stuff?”

[1:06](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=66) I said, “Man, I'm pretty laid-back.” Like, I was still discovering life, you know?

[1:09](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=69) He goes, “Hey, so, do you drink?” I said, “No.”

[1:11](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=71) He said, “Look, one day you’ll drink, but you’ll just have one little glass of wine, then, when it’s one in the morning, you’ll go home and get some rest.”

[1:18](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=78) That idea really stuck in my head, man. It’s the man’s advice: have a little glass sometime, then take off.

[1:23](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=83) A little glass of wine, at one in the morning.

[1:25](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=85) But who goes home at one in the morning?

[1:26](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=86) The party’s just getting started. Right?

[1:27](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=87) Especially for a Brazilian who loves a big party. It’s hard.

[1:30](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=90) Then you said, “No, definitely, just one glass.” I said, “No, okay.”

[1:33](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=93) And I don’t even drink, or... I said, “No, it’s fine.”

[1:36](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=96) Imagine him with his son, man. Wow! Wow, he must be unbearable.

[1:39](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=99) Man, let him eat some chips, drink soda, and do nothing.

[1:42](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=102) Really? His son, yeah, he is strict about that stuff.

[1:44](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=104) And also when he saw players acting differently or drinking soda or eating snacks, doing whatever, he'd go, "Oh…"

[1:51](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=111) Yeah, like, meat way past well-done, he says there's a, there's this thing that's bad for you, eating meat too… Well-done. Well-done.

[1:59](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=119) Then, Mitico. Tips like that. All right, you got my attention, huh?

[2:03](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=123) Mitico likes his meat charred. Yeah. Almost folding it over on the table, like that.

[2:06](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=126) And the chocolate he used to eat, those…

[2:08](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=128) Bitter? Man, that was awful. Oh, but it's Cristiano Ronaldo, for fuck's sake.

[2:12](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=132) No, the man lives— the man is a robot, bro.

[2:14](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=134) What does he do for fun, man? Train. I think that's all he does.

[2:16](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=136) The guy doesn't even eat pudding. And at training, what was he like?

[2:18](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=138) Really intense? He trains on what he needs: finishing and speed. Then he leaves.

[2:23](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=143) When the guys started passing a lot, he’d start complaining.

[2:26](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=146) That’s what I was—I was going to ask you, he also…

[2:28](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=148) Man, you’ve got to score goals, you do, he liked to have the drills tailored specifically for him, you know?

[2:32](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=152) He was kind of a leader there too, in that whole thing?

[2:34](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=154) Yeah. Exactly. But it’s crazy, right? And he’d put together his own finishing drills, the guys weren’t the ones assigning them.

[2:40](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=160) “I’m gonna train this here, look.” “No, are you messing with me?”

[2:42](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=162) “Seriously.” “No, seriously.” “That’s awesome.”

[2:43](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=163) And, like, it’s not as if he trained with, like, ten shots.

[2:46](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=166) He’d train with, like, thirty shots with his right, thirty with his left.

[2:49](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=169) So much so that, like, after about three months of me being there, I got injured because of him, man.

[2:53](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=173) Did he train that much? He said, “Let’s have a competition.” I said, “Let’s do it.”

[2:55](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=175) Then he called Moise Kim, Fadioli, and it was me and two other kids.

[3:00](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=180) Bro, just lemonade. Right, left, from a distance.

[3:03](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=183) Thirty with the right, thirty with the left.

[3:05](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=185) On that last one with the left, I went to smash it.

[3:07](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=187) Adductor. The rectus femoris. Thump. Ow.

[3:11](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=191) Then I was like, man, I felt it. So I started walking with a little limp, right?

[3:14](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=194) Doctor, doctoress, I'm not well. I'm not well.

[3:17](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=197) I'm not well over there, like Calciatto.

[3:18](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=198) Here. Ah. Then I went to get checked and she— told on me, right?

[3:23](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=203) I didn't even tell him, right? I slipped out quietly, man. I said, "No, I'm tired."

[3:25](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=205) What kind of injury is that, bro? It's a twinge, it's like a...

[3:29](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=209) A tear? A little pinch and release, you know?

[3:30](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=210) But doesn't that make you mad? Li— like, you look and say, "Fuck, I'm eighteen years old, man.

[3:33](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=213) That guy's forty. Damn it." Bro, he's incredible, man.

[3:38](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=218) He finishes well with both feet. The same power, the same accuracy.

[3:42](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=222) And when he misses a shot, he gets... Agonized. Bro, you don't have to say anything, but it's pretty cool to know that you've seen him naked, you know?

[3:48](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=228) That you saw him. No. You saw him. He's got a real speedo voice, bro.

[3:52](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=232) Seriously? You think he doesn't, Cristiano doesn't know everyone would want to check out his dick while he's taking a shower?

[3:57](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=237) If I were on the same team as him, I'd be like: No, you...

[3:58](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=238) You don't have to, you don't have to go that far.

[4:01](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=241) You'd give him a bath, man. You don't have to go that far. You'd give him a bath.

[4:03](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=243) You don't have to go that far, Cristiano Ronaldo.

[4:05](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=245) We're all friends here. We're on the same team.

[4:09](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/qTzhM04Z06hV/en/cristiano-ronaldo-s-diet-training-and-goal-scoring-advice?t=249) Where is it? Champions' big shower.
