since his childhood. He knew that a footballer requires good stamina because a football
match requires a player to run at least 10 kilometers in a single match. Sometimes, he even
trained himself continuously from morning until evening. He also challenged himself by
playing along with older players.

He becomes so skillful and confident that his opponents cannot figure out how to stop
Ronaldo from making a goal. Normal football players will use their single leg of their
dominant side body, i.e. players of righthanded or lefthanded use their respective legs to
score goals but Ronaldo can easily use both of his legs efficiently to make goals. In addition to
that, he can use his head to score goals as well.

He is also one of the fastest football players in football history. Ronaldo can run very fast, he
can run with a speed of 33.6 kilometers per hour. That is why he is also known as a rocket
man. This helps Ronaldo to do his famous freekick. Ronaldo's freekick speed is approximately
130 kilometers per hour.
