Determination and effectiveness, the keys to Cristiano Ronaldo's 5th Golden Ball
Today the portuguese Cristiano received his 5th Golden Ball in football. The 32-year-old has won this award in 2008, 2013, 2014, 2016 and 2017 with effort and dedication. He is not a player that influences a full season, but in short periods of months that he only defines all the matches and makes his team a champion in a specific tournament. The key for Ronaldo to win his gold balls? For determination and effectiveness, two factors that greatly influence football today and is the criterion of BdO today, be decisive and important for your team.
The legend of Real Madrid is not a player who creates plays, nor who influences the 90 ', nor does it dribble many players, what influences the Portuguese is their goal scoring efficiency and determination in a high level match, as demonstrated in the last season of the League and Champions League, the portuguese influenced the month of March-June and managed it alone with his goals lead Real Madrid to win League and Champions League. This is what I describe, as in the title, an effective and decisive player. The Golden Ball award is based on choosing the player who most influenced a season, because the determination and effectiveness of Cristiano Ronaldo in 4 months achieved that his great work with the merengue team is successful and therefore receive his 5th ball of gold .
Personally, Cristiano Ronaldo did deserve his 5th Golden Ball, but let's not forget that the calendar year (12 months) only appeared in 4 months. In the previous paragraph I clarify that it was both the determination and effectiveness that elected him, but the criterion of this award has long been the player who has shown the most performance in the 12 months, but there is no doubt that from These prizes will be awarded to the player who is decisive in a match that makes his team achieve a championship.
The thing about Cristiano Ronaldo is admirable, a player who comes out of Real Madrid training in the morning, and in the afternoon he does a gym at home, and he continues to train. He still has his goalscoring sense, although currently he has only 2 goals in 9 league games, in Champions he has 9 goals in 6 games. It is a "9" area that always defines where it should be, so congratulations for winning this award, CR9.
I have always admired Lionel Messi and I always look (and by much difference) better than Cristiano Ronaldo, but this year the Portuguese took Madrid to win Champions and League, and he should not be reproached, he deserved it.
