Whenever I feel depressed I see this video , I feel like I am the one playing not Ronaldo , My heart starts racing with excitement seeing ronaldos impossible and determined movements and simply can't help but feel like I am ready to rise and shine again(genuine thanks for the video)
You don't feel "depressed." You feel sad, demotivated or something else. Depression is a very serious illness. Don't throw this word around like it's nothing.
@@abhinavsingh1526 Well I went through a 4 year long depression that stagnated and destroyed much of my life. Thankfully I have found the cure for it some time ago. I'm just saying this about the word cuz it really should be applied more seriously. Because depression is not even closely taken as seriously as it should, while it is one of the most devastating diseases in existence. As someone who lost a dear friend to it and saw many others attempting to take their own lives I know how deadly it can be.
In my opinion only jealousy, enviousnes and blindness can be on the way of admission that this guy was absolutely the best football player in this planet so far
This Ronaldo is the greatest human to ever kick a ball .Others can fight out for number 2.I watched him since when he was a teenager and he was alone and still remains alone in that box
In his prime, Ronaldo Nazario da Lima was untouchable. A prodigy - like Mozart or Michael Jackson in music. There has never been, nor will there ever be, anyone like him again.
To anyone who says Messi is better than R9, sorry but your completely wrong. Messi matured into his greatness. R9 was running things as a teenager at the level Messi was at 24-25. The Problem was R9s body was effed by the time he reached 23. Even then goals wise Messi had nothing on Ronaldo until 24. More like 21 but Ronaldo was so far ahead on goals it took Messi 3 seasons to catch up. Stats - over their first 7 Pro seasons Messi by time he was 24 had like 188 goals in 350 games (Club and Country) R9 by 21 had 196 in 228 games (club and country) by 24 (3yrs full of injuries and even a heart attack) R9 had 232 in 282. What you have to take into account is R9 at 19 Ruptured his Patella in Holland for PSV in his second season (1995). He only played 21 games that season but still managed 19 goals. He then at 22 Ruptured his Patella twice within the space of a few months. So altogether from 95 to 99 he Ruptured his Patella 3 times missed 105 games and spent over 800 days recovering from various surgeries. Yet still managed 115 goals in 134 games between 94 and 99. Further more during that time he entered the world cup final of 98 with 4 goals, had a Seizure (years later cardiologist Bruno Caru said it was a heart attack) in his hotel room hours before the final and was given epilepsy medication (which is known to slow brain activity, Maryln Monroe took to commit suicide) and sent out to play. My point is when it comes to goal scoring he was on another level to Messi. Messi at one club was and is one of the greatest ever. However, Ronaldo had banged in those 200 goals in nearly as many games in (the Brazillian league, Dutch, Spanish and Italian by 21) Messi at that age was no where near Ronaldo and currently has 6 in 20+ games at PSG and what's hilarious is folk kept criticising Mbappes record saying it was so good he was playing against Farmers (ignoring the fact Mbappe has proved himself against the best clubs in Europe in the UCL and on the international leve (world cup). Well Messi is in the farmers league now. Messi is defo more creative passer and assists and in his prime prooved an elite. But goals...R9 is to me the greatest ever despite never reaching his physical prime. He also recovered from 4yrs of rehab and attempted returns to score 83 in 127 at Real Madrid despite his weight gain and only 2 thirds of the explosiveness he had in the mid 90s. Without the bad luck of Knee ruptures, broken Leg and heart attack (sounds like a war veteren) he would have no doubt have set a goal to game ration record Ronaldo and Messi couldn't have beat. It a real shame! He is 'Fenômeno' Skills, touch, finishing, speed, power, strength everything. Lastly a fun fact...for 20% of his goals he took on the keeper! 🤣 🤣
Solo chi è affetto da cecità sportiva nega che Ronaldo il Fenomeno sia stato il più grande e meraviglioso talento calcistico di tutti i tempi..!! R9 unico, irripetibile e INCOMPARABILE!!!
Honestly i dont know if hes better than Messi. Messi was pretty much a starter at Barcelona playing in finals by the time he was 18. He never even played in farmers' leagues until his early retirement at PSG. If you look for highlight reels of el clasicos and others youre gonna find Messi taking on 3-4 players at a time multiple times a game, even when he doesnt score. Early Messi's agility is just something else, no one comes close
Messi come Cristiano è un campione, ma di seconda fascia....hanno avuto la fortuna di nascere in un periodo che nel Calcio i talenti autentici non c' erano più...il resto l' ha fatto internet e giornalisti servili.
@@caralho5237 Forget taking on player R9 could also take on 2/3/4 players. I'm talking about comparing them as young prodigies. And because people like to say R9 played in Holland here are stats as a 18-22 yr old at international level. R9 had 34 Goals and 20 assists in 55. That's 54 goal involvements in 55 games. Messi had 15 goals and 12 assists in 54 That's 27 goal involvements in 54 games. R9 had double the goals involvements at the same age at international level. Club level: Messi - 133 goals and 56 assists in 231 games. That's 189 goal involvements in 231 games. R9 - 155 goals and 29 assists in 189 games - that's 184 goal involvements in 189 games. R9 never reached his physical peak or experience because by time he was 22 a knee injury from PSV days had hampered him till for inter it put him out for 2 years and he never recovered (weight gain and all that) But based on his trajectory from 18 - 22 R9 was all round better in my opinion. Faster (could run 60m in 6.8/7seconds - Usain bolt could do 6.3) Better skills with ball at speed, step-overs, elastico etc. and had better goal involvement stats at combining his time at Barca, PSV and Inter and international he proved it at every level. It's hard not to look at Messi without hindsight. So people judge on the numbers Messi grew too. R9 started on better numbers but just fell victim to injury and never continued.
Past or present, dead or alive there's no player that come close to this guy. I miss him so much I'm constantly on you tube to watch old videos. Truly the phenomenon
@@danieljele1113 don't be blind, if u take only how they played football R9 is only better than Ronaldo but doesn't come close to Messi, but if u take their whole career and what they done, R9 doesn't even come close to them. Even the era Messi and Ronaldo created speaks enough about their greatness
@@atomm3853 You are blindly following the guy whose just an average player but the media told you he's great. I can't argue with longevity but pound for pound in the years that R9 played football no player comes close, period
@@danieljele1113 no it's u past merchants guys, look how Messi played football and than look at R9, its not even close, how I said, if u only take the part how good they played football, than R9 is definitely top3 but u can't judge players greatness only based on their abilities with ball, there are many important things that makes u greater and greater, Messi have almost everything, Cristiano maybe not the one of the greatest in abilities but he had other things that made him also second greatest
This guy brought football in a new era. Incredible speed, technique, power, vision, finition, back in his days no one was ready. If you didnt grow up in the 90s it's hard to imagine the crazyness around this guy when he was in barcelona and then inter milan.
@@55TheOracle55that’s cause they were 17 lol and stop making up BS excuses messi and cr7 have had injuries granted not as bad as this guys but change your game 🤷♂️
@@mr_yo_du44 yes mate lol he is not the best player by far. Only a fool who does know nothing of football and their players would claim that. R9 was a phenomenal player, I love him. He was beautiful to watch. But he does not reach Messi and CR7 in so many ways, maybe most importantly the consistency. We need someone like him again who just loves to play football, just like Ronaldinho did. The closest to him might be Neymar right now
@@andreasscheuer3204 R9 came off a career ending injury and scored 8 goals in 7 matches to win a World Cup. While Messi has never won a Major Trophy for Argentina and Ronaldo has never been close to scoring that much in a World Cup. He had two Patella Ruptures in 1999 & 2000 when he was 21 & 22 put this in to perspective was Messi at 19 & 20 scoring 34 or 25 goals for Barcelona? CR7 nor Messi was doing that… Ronaldo still did the impossible & won a World Cup at 24. By the time he got to Madrid his patella tendon was fucked & he had Thyroids…and still managed to put out 20+ goals a season. What has Messi done but have the best team of all time? What has CR7 done that R9 wouldnt have done better? People who say CR7 is better than R9 are like ppl who say Lebron is better than Jordan. You just look at stats & never look at the moments where the players stepped up. Your goats never have. CR7 looked like a joke in the Euros. Messi has lost 5 finals for his international team. He got retired by Super Mario Gotze & Alexis Sanchez. Brazil got out played in the Semi in 2002 in the WC yet R9 scored. He scored a Brace vs Germany who were killing Brazil in that final. What has CR7 or Messi done when his team was not as good as their opponent. Get a 4 piece from Lewy in a semi while he just could score a pen? For CR7? Having arguable again one of the best teams of all time. Messi getting beat 7-0 by Bayern. Embarrassment from Roma, Liverpool, Bayern & PSG. Chile two times in a row. Messi & Ronaldo can score on Getafe & Elche all they want. They can’t touch R9 & They can’t touch Dinho.
@@sanfi2079 well I know what you mean, I think it is very hard to say who is better in general because everyone has his own meaning of what is “better”. Is it dribbling or finishing? Is it who got the most trophies at the end? I think when it comes to talent, R9 outshines everyone. Nobody can beat his instinct, only Messi maybe. And if, as you said, it wasn’t for his injuries he would have been on a high level for a much longer time
I witnessed the extraordinary Messi, awesomeness of CR7, the intelligence of Zidane, the charisma of Henry, the tenacity of Baggio, the flair of Ronaldino, the runs of Maradona, the vison of Xavi. Every player had a description but Da Lima. So, we call him El fenomeno.
@@techbro3034 baggio and ronaldo fenomeno are my favorite bucause they fought against injury expecially baggio, who start his carrier in serie A after a terrible injury, in that time was a K.O. for a football player....and again i remember when ronaldo while running he went to the ground and started screaming in pain and after that injury he was still a fenomeno
@@techbro3034 But we do know, and who gives a shit about kids these days. No other player will be remembered as the "Phenomenon" for the name belongs to RONALDO LUIZ NAZARIO DE LIME. The god of football.
When you see this, how can you compare him to ANY ONE ? This moves are unbelievable. It is impossible to repeat. When Im watching, I am trying to understand how hes doing this in such tight spaces... but I have no idea.
Remember my son , no matter what they will tell you, no matter how many will come and go.. This guy is THE ONE ! The greatest of all time , the god of all gods .. Ronaldo Luis Nazario de Lima
I'm a Messi fan (29 years old ) , but R9 was the first player that made me love football you can't imagine how he was in that era , still remember his performance in world cup finals in 2002 ........the golden era indeed .
What we all saw in 2002 was not even close to the prime Ronaldo El Phenomenon we all read before that. We used to read about football commentaries and results on football magazines. There was no youtube or 24/7 cable sports tv like we have now. Unfortunately we can only enjoy his later years
@@cacildoneto5090 CR7 never won a single world cup. The greatest of all time has at least won 2 or more world cups. CR7 has a great barber though and yet Ronaldo Phenomenon gave the most ridiculous hair cut ever and it became a global trend. Even R9 appologized to the world for that ridiculous hair cut, in contrast CR7 shines only in Europe in domestic matches. But against the best of the best he is mediocre. Your ignorance astounds me.
It's so good to see that he was not looking for fouls and cards or penalties. He stood there challenges and just showed his skills are superior than the opponents. True legend
Bet the 19yr old RONALDO phenomenon would cost a billion now in the inflated market....and his talent begs for one to dig deeper and put a trillion on the table
The thing is in 2021, R9 would've gone to Man City, PSG, Chelsea or Bayern. Sadly Barcelona have really fallen and Inter just isn't the same powerhouse
When he got injured at inter milan, the players of the other team cried cuz Ronaldo was the Idol to many players. I also cried cuz at that time i felt football was over. Words can’t describe how brilliant and talented this player was and how beautiful football was back in the days. IF Ronaldo wasn’t injured, he would’ve been the best player in football history. For me he is the Greatest Of All Time. Thank you Ronaldo❤️
The Spanish and Italian leagues are like heaven and earth. Dirty football is played in Italy. Ronaldo wasn't injured, he was beaten in Italy.. It's unfortunate for football..
7:28 go watch every single video of every single legend in football history and you will never find anyone who could pass 3 defenders and a keeper with such style and speed like this here. my mind is so fucking blown away by this that no word can discribe what i have just whitnessed!
At 5:36 he does a move but you see it's not going to work but only the greatest of the greatest recover a move that was bound to fail. Look at it please. He even playes the opponent through te legs while recovering. The timing of this man was unbeatable... And look closely: ALL of his movements were with a meaning, he NEVER did an unneccesary move!
ronaldo at 97 / 98 season at inter before the injury was something rare in football history. something speed power everything, he made best defenders in the world seemed like kids
@@mouhammedali5434 yeah for me second best of all time. Better than maradona pele cruyff Cristiano. Had he had better longevity and reached his real peak then he could have been the greatest
@@foa0695 Definitely. Not only that. He was maturing into a complete player at in Inter. Taking PKs, scoring on free kicks and even taking corners. Even his passing and vision were underrated (he had always at least 2 defenders on him, he knew when to dribble, when to accelerate or when to pass at the right time). Injuries robbed us of what should have been an even more incredible career from the Phenomenon. And still, what he did pre injuries, at such a young age, is just alienesque. Ronaldo, when healthy, is probably the best footballer that has ever existed. He is forever The Phenomenon.
I miss u R,i love u so much .i remember waiting every sundays night sportsshow t watch the highlights from the european championships to see what fenomenal did ronaldo again.best player ever,the michelangelo of football😊 pure magic.love from greece🇬🇷
Yeah I really was thinking the same a few minutes ago. This has to be the greatest single piece of football I've ever seen. You can't be that good !!!!
I love when players have the ability to do fancy skills, but also have the football IQ to effortlessly glide through defenders with simple well timed touches.
The only one and unique Fenomeno. My favorit all time player, no one could do everyrthing Ronaldo could, this is pure talent, force, technique, speed and Joy. What a Pleasure it was to grow up in this area, calcio from the 90ies, Inter, AC Milano, Maldini, Ronaldo, Romario, Rivaldo, Seedorf, Bergkamp, Suker, Zidane, Redondo, how much iconic players in all Europe that time.
Nunca veremos otro como él en el campo, el jugador al que mas han respetado los contrarios de la historia de este deporte. Ni habrá otro jugador con su carisma, the real one.
Am glad I had the pleasure to watch this superstars career!! By far the best football player ever !! In his prime at inter Milan he was unstoppable , and serie A had world class defenders he made them look shit!! There’s never been a player so fast and so direct than this man . The greatest ⚽️
Para quem jogou futebol nos anos 90 e 2000 como eu, é uma imensa felicidade poder rever os lances desse gênio, Ronaldo Fenômeno, o maior que vi jogar. Sou fã número 1!
O Brasil teve e terá jogadores fantásticos...muito acima da média. Três jogadores que me surpreendem e acompanhei seu crescimento foi Romário em 1987, Fenômeno em 1993, Ronaldo Gaúcho em 1997... jogadores com uma capacidade de definição, de raciocínio rápido, explosão algo impressionante. O Brasil é um celeiro de dribladores, jogadores que reinventam a arte de driblar a cada ano. Nenhum futebol no mundo tem essa capacidade...mas FENÔMENO os italianos foram sublimes no batismo a Ronaldo.
greatest of all time my ass ... i like ronaldo 9 but cmone .. messi once did 91 goals in a calender year , more then lets say r9 in his whole 4-5 years at real madrid ..
best sprinter ever in football history + one of the best dribbler ever in football hisrory = the most destructive dribbler ever in football history = R9
Now this is what u call ‘GOAT’. The best beast to ever grace the football field. There’s no possible replacement for RONALDO…never was and will never be
The Man who made Me fall in love with Football, The Man who made football look beautiful, The Phenomenon, The Greatest of all Time, My Idol....RONALDO NAZARIO DE LIMA ❤❤❤
Most naturally skillful player I’ve ever seen. He does what he needs to per situation. My personal 🐐. But he is the most talented footballer to step on a pitch. You can’t teach nothing he does
When i was 11 years old, i fell in love with Ronaldo, he was about 20 something.. and his game. My dream was to see him in reality. Now many years passed, i still think he is the best but i almost dont watch football anymore. Now is everything different..
Imagine me having your same age, thinking the same about R9 and football, living where Kobe started to play BB and going in summer holidays at Cesenatico, where there was Marco Pantani. I honestly don't find anymore any poetry in sports.
You did not miss anything. Ronaldo is still to this day the best player football has ever seen. By far. And i doubt i will ever see another talent like him in this lifetime. Absolute genius, Ronaldo, the Phenomenon.
Its really beautiful. Stupendous. No doubt .Mess & C.R. are the greatest. But I think Ronaldo Na ..... Is a class s part from all the great of Football.
All do respect To Cristiano Ronaldo y Lionel Messi there are best of this generation but Ronaldo Nazario Da Lima I saw him play the World Cup, just he’s plays, he’s technique, without words to describe. I just know for a glimpse second that I saw he was smooth and super fast while everyone taking 1,2,3,4,5 by himself. Nobody that I seen so far can’t top that. That’s why the best players right now are just the best of all time but Ronaldo Nazario Da Lima Forever be the Phenomenon OF ALL TIME next to Pele in my book. The Legends 🇧🇷
I am forty years old and have been an amateur football player and passionate fan for thirty years, and I have never seen a player who came with such magic as what this player did, and had it not been for the curse of injuries, he would have had a greater interest ..... Yes, it is the phenomenon.
ONE OF THE MOST EFFECTIVE DRIBBLERS IN FOOTBALL HISTORY, HIS DRIBBLING SKILLS WAS NEVER TO SHOW BOAT, BUT TO RUSH TOWARDS GOAL, AS IF EACH ATTACK HAD A LIMITED TIME DEADLINE
those people know in their heart that R9 is better than both cristiano and messi by miles, but it's their arrogance that makes them deny it. they just don't like it thats why they deny it.
Makaveli 2989 actually his dribbling skill is the best, even better than messi. However, his scoring skill is equal to messi and maybe slightly better than cr7. But only messi’s vision and passing skills make him exceptional. In terms of consistency, messi and cr7 are surely better. So messi is still the best and most complete player.
@@cianle5996 If we take it to the consistency side, Pelé is the best (more than 1000 goals and three world cups)!! Ronaldo Fenomeno fractured his knee twice, and even then, he has two world cups !! In technical and ability terms, Ronaldo fenomeno is better than messi, as he has a header, kicks with both legs, dribbling with both legs, has a greater variety of resources for the game !!
It must be hard for you, having to admit the reality !!
@@instintoracional5815 R9 also played against the worlds best defenders who actually TRIED to tackle him. You can't tackle nowadays, and defenders are garbage today in comparison, and defenders back away from Messi when he runs, hardly tackle because that's how the game is now. Not to mention today they kick with a balloon that curves and swerves like a bitch, making it MUCH easier to score goals. But stupid kids of today know nothing of these things. I'm around a long time, the greatest player of all time is R9. There was nobody ever like him. Pele had similar type players like G.Best, Messi similar to Maradona and so on. R9 was unique and the greatest player ever to grace what used to be the beautiful game. I could go on and on to prove my point, but those as old as me, KNOW the truth!
Ronaldo at 18-23 yrs old was the best player I ever seen even ahead of Maradona. Then the injuries messed him up. For longevity Messi and C.Ronaldo are ahead but if it wasn't for his major injury at Inter he would be no.1 no doubt.
Deniz Can Pekel, lol check his goals R9 goals for Barcelona he didn’t create any of his goals Lol 33 year old Cr7 was better than peak R9, that’s embarrassing considering u trying to say R9 is the Goat
Football not sooccer Remember, football wasn’t very developed during Ronaldo’s day. Now, Pep Guardiola needs to watch one video analysis and he’d be able to get Pique or Umtiti to easily stop Ronaldo from causing trouble. The defenses today are of much higher quality than in Ronaldo’s time. Ronaldo only stood out because he played in an easy era where there were not many stars. In reality, he’s a far worse version of Lukaku. Therefore you can’t say Ronaldo was a great player, he didn’t do anything special.
Zayn Shaikh I don’t think Ronaldo Luis Nazario de Lima deserves to be recognized as a legend of the game. For me, he’s not a top 100 player of all time. Iconic superstars should only be identified if they play exceptional & are superbly talented. Ronaldo didn’t play soccer long enough, he had a very short career. Even when he did play, he didn’t do anything special. He performed far below the level of a world class talent. Ronaldo didn’t do enough to have a major impact in soccer, he was not a generational superstar.
Zayn Shaikh Ronaldo was the most overhyped player of his era. His 2002 Ballon D’or win will forever go down as the biggest robbery in soccer history. What did he do to deserve the victory? He barely played during the calendar year & when he came onto the pitch, he was not an impactful player at all. To not give the award to Thierry Henry was a total injustice. Prime Henry was 100x better than Ronaldo at his peak. He went undefeated in a full season with Arsenal and also carried France to the 1998 World Cup & 2000 Euros. Henry won the treble in 2009, the most prestigious award in soccer, that’s something Ronaldo never achieved. There should be no question that Henry is the greatest striker in history alongside Luis Suarez. Ronaldo didn’t deserve any of his Ballon D’or or FIFA World Player Awards. He was an absolute joke of a player.
Tenía todo lo que debe de reunir un jugador de fútbol y una persona. Tenía velocidad, explosión, abilidad, regate, carácter dentro de la cancha, imposible de marcar, y como persona tiene humildad, buen compañero, honesto..que más se puede decir de este fenómeno???..solo darle gracias por habernos dado tanto fútbol, tantos momentos agradables y por sobre todo;; acabar con tanta controversia de quien a sido el mejor de todos los tiempos..gracias FENÓMENO!!!
It didn't need to be a goal, it's still the most audacious bit of skill ever performed in professional football. He'd do things like this all the time. That's why he is the best ever!
At the time of him playing there was no such thing as CZcams or social media so the only time us in England ever got to watch him was at the World Cup, it was like he was some sort of mythical creature that you only got to see once every 4 years but he never disappointed ❤
No me canso de ver el vídeo, no hay palabras, para mí el mejor jugador de fútbol de la historia. Parecía que llevaba el balón atado a las botas, hacía magia, ❤❤
What I love most about Ronaldo is that his dribbling and tricks were always for a purpose and never just for the sake of it. Pre injury he thought he could beat his man regardless of the situation, and more than often did
People say he wasn't an athlete. C'mon, just imagine reaching 40 km/h almost every single run, while also controling the ball and avoiding legs and feets trying to take you out. His body was strong, indeed, when he was at Barcelona the staff used to say that he had a body like a pro fighter. His playing style was so overwelmingly stressfull that his body couldn't maintain it.
Actually, i hate football videos with music and ridicilous songs, but in this video with fenomeno i was about to cry. It is so emotional, and if he hadn't injured in his prime, he would have been the best forever. Neither Messi nor cr7 could have reached him, his technique, esthetic and beauty. His game was purely an art and he was an artist. He was just unbelievable. I don't think I'll ever see someone like him again.
It is amazing see Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi nowadays, but who saw Ronaldo playing in the ending of 90s and begging of 2000s, could say that he is the best player that ever exists. Not only for skills and strength, but his speed was not from this world, any player could not reach him. He used to kick a little the ball in front and run with a awesome speed.
@@broxy2007 well I am from this era, but i love to follow and analyze classic football in detail. I would say Pele is really the greatest of all time. 1-Pele 2-Messi 3-Maradona 4-Ronaldo Nazario (in his prime) 5-Johan Cruyff and Cristiano Ronaldo
The greatest soccer player, I seen Messi and CR7, they are good, but I like a player who has the confidence to go around the goal keeper in big games. R9 had the most elegant and stylish dribbling tricks than any other football player in history...
The Absolute Power of R9 in his prime... he would do things that made you feel out of this world, like the first time you heard your favorite song... every. single. game. I also don’t think that people realize he won a World Cup on 1 knee, and played the second half of his career without cartilages on either knee.
Whenever I feel depressed I see this video , I feel like I am the one playing not Ronaldo , My heart starts racing with excitement seeing ronaldos impossible and determined movements and simply can't help but feel like I am ready to rise and shine again(genuine thanks for the video)

Of course there isn’t going to be, no such thing as clones.
@@christianchedjou9715 Messi is not as good as Ronaldo El Fenomeno
This is why football is simply Art, Ronaldo simplemente el Fenomeno Futbol total
Its for me a honor to witnessed him playing live, especially during world cup 98 and 2002. History.
To anyone who says Messi is better than R9, sorry but your completely wrong.
Messi matured into his greatness. R9 was running things as a teenager at the level Messi was at 24-25. The Problem was R9s body was effed by the time he reached 23. Even then goals wise Messi had nothing on Ronaldo until 24. More like 21 but Ronaldo was so far ahead on goals it took Messi 3 seasons to catch up.
Stats - over their first 7 Pro seasons
Messi by time he was 24 had like 188 goals in 350 games (Club and Country)
R9 by 21 had 196 in 228 games (club and country) by 24 (3yrs full of injuries and even a heart attack) R9 had 232 in 282.
What you have to take into account is R9 at 19 Ruptured his Patella in Holland for PSV in his second season (1995). He only played 21 games that season but still managed 19 goals. He then at 22 Ruptured his Patella twice within the space of a few months. So altogether from 95 to 99 he Ruptured his Patella 3 times missed 105 games and spent over 800 days recovering from various surgeries. Yet still managed 115 goals in 134 games between 94 and 99.
Further more during that time he entered the world cup final of 98 with 4 goals, had a Seizure (years later cardiologist Bruno Caru said it was a heart attack) in his hotel room hours before the final and was given epilepsy medication (which is known to slow brain activity, Maryln Monroe took to commit suicide) and sent out to play.
My point is when it comes to goal scoring he was on another level to Messi. Messi at one club was and is one of the greatest ever.
However, Ronaldo had banged in those 200 goals in nearly as many games in (the Brazillian league, Dutch, Spanish and Italian by 21) Messi at that age was no where near Ronaldo and currently has 6 in 20+ games at PSG and what's hilarious is folk kept criticising Mbappes record saying it was so good he was playing against Farmers (ignoring the fact Mbappe has proved himself against the best clubs in Europe in the UCL and on the international leve (world cup). Well Messi is in the farmers league now.
Messi is defo more creative passer and assists and in his prime prooved an elite. But goals...R9 is to me the greatest ever despite never reaching his physical prime.
He also recovered from 4yrs of rehab and attempted returns to score 83 in 127 at Real Madrid despite his weight gain and only 2 thirds of the explosiveness he had in the mid 90s.
Without the bad luck of Knee ruptures, broken Leg and heart attack (sounds like a war veteren) he would have no doubt have set a goal to game ration record Ronaldo and Messi couldn't have beat.
It a real shame! He is 'Fenômeno'
Skills, touch, finishing, speed, power, strength everything.
Lastly a fun fact...for 20% of his goals he took on the keeper! 🤣 🤣
Solo chi è affetto da cecità sportiva nega che Ronaldo il Fenomeno sia stato il più grande e meraviglioso talento calcistico di tutti i tempi..!! R9 unico, irripetibile e INCOMPARABILE!!!
He was poisoned before the 98 final. France would never allow to lose in their home country. People have no clue how big football is in geopolitics.
Honestly i dont know if hes better than Messi. Messi was pretty much a starter at Barcelona playing in finals by the time he was 18. He never even played in farmers' leagues until his early retirement at PSG. If you look for highlight reels of el clasicos and others youre gonna find Messi taking on 3-4 players at a time multiple times a game, even when he doesnt score. Early Messi's agility is just something else, no one comes close
Messi come Cristiano è un campione, ma di seconda fascia....hanno avuto la fortuna di nascere in un periodo che nel Calcio i talenti autentici non c' erano più...il resto l' ha fatto internet e giornalisti servili.
@@caralho5237 Forget taking on player R9 could also take on 2/3/4 players. I'm talking about comparing them as young prodigies. And because people like to say R9 played in Holland here are stats as a 18-22 yr old at international level.
R9 had 34 Goals and 20 assists in 55. That's 54 goal involvements in 55 games.
Messi had 15 goals and 12 assists in 54
That's 27 goal involvements in 54 games.
R9 had double the goals involvements at the same age at international level.
Club level: Messi - 133 goals and 56 assists in 231 games. That's 189 goal involvements in 231 games.
R9 - 155 goals and 29 assists in 189 games - that's 184 goal involvements in 189 games.
R9 never reached his physical peak or experience because by time he was 22 a knee injury from PSV days had hampered him till for inter it put him out for 2 years and he never recovered (weight gain and all that)
But based on his trajectory from 18 - 22 R9 was all round better in my opinion.
Faster (could run 60m in 6.8/7seconds - Usain bolt could do 6.3) Better skills with ball at speed, step-overs, elastico etc. and had better goal involvement stats at combining his time at Barca, PSV and Inter and international he proved it at every level.
It's hard not to look at Messi without hindsight. So people judge on the numbers Messi grew too. R9 started on better numbers but just fell victim to injury and never continued.

@@andreasscheuer3204 R9 came off a career ending injury and scored 8 goals in 7 matches to win a World Cup. While Messi has never won a Major Trophy for Argentina and Ronaldo has never been close to scoring that much in a World Cup.

CR7 nor Messi was doing that… Ronaldo still did the impossible & won a World Cup at 24. By the time he got to Madrid his patella tendon was fucked & he had Thyroids…and still managed to put out 20+ goals a season. What has Messi done but have the best team of all time? What has CR7 done that R9 wouldnt have done better? People who say CR7 is better than R9 are like ppl who say Lebron is better than Jordan. You just look at stats & never look at the moments where the players stepped up. Your goats never have. CR7 looked like a joke in the Euros. Messi has lost 5 finals for his international team. He got retired by Super Mario Gotze & Alexis Sanchez. Brazil got out played in the Semi in 2002 in the WC yet R9 scored. He scored a Brace vs Germany who were killing Brazil in that final. What has CR7 or Messi done when his team was not as good as their opponent. Get a 4 piece from Lewy in a semi while he just could score a pen? For CR7? Having arguable again one of the best teams of all time. Messi getting beat 7-0 by Bayern. Embarrassment from Roma, Liverpool, Bayern & PSG. Chile two times in a row. Messi & Ronaldo can score on Getafe & Elche all they want. They can’t touch R9 & They can’t touch Dinho.
@@sanfi2079 well I know what you mean, I think it is very hard to say who is better in general because everyone has his own meaning of what is “better”. Is it dribbling or finishing? Is it who got the most trophies at the end? I think when it comes to talent, R9 outshines everyone. Nobody can beat his instinct, only Messi maybe. And if, as you said, it wasn’t for his injuries he would have been on a high level for a much longer time

Remember, football wasn’t very developed during Ronaldo’s day. Now, Pep Guardiola needs to watch one video analysis and he’d be able to get Pique or Umtiti to easily stop Ronaldo from causing trouble. The defenses today are of much higher quality than in Ronaldo’s time. Ronaldo only stood out because he played in an easy era where there were not many stars. In reality, he’s a far worse version of Lukaku. Therefore you can’t say Ronaldo was a great player, he didn’t do anything special.

I don’t think Ronaldo Luis Nazario de Lima deserves to be recognized as a legend of the game. For me, he’s not a top 100 player of all time. Iconic superstars should only be identified if they play exceptional & are superbly talented. Ronaldo didn’t play soccer long enough, he had a very short career. Even when he did play, he didn’t do anything special. He performed far below the level of a world class talent. Ronaldo didn’t do enough to have a major impact in soccer, he was not a generational superstar.
@@USMNTsoccerELITE you copy and paste the same thing everytime
Zayn Shaikh
Ronaldo was the most overhyped player of his era. His 2002 Ballon D’or win will forever go down as the biggest robbery in soccer history. What did he do to deserve the victory? He barely played during the calendar year & when he came onto the pitch, he was not an impactful player at all. To not give the award to Thierry Henry was a total injustice. Prime Henry was 100x better than Ronaldo at his peak. He went undefeated in a full season with Arsenal and also carried France to the 1998 World Cup & 2000 Euros. Henry won the treble in 2009, the most prestigious award in soccer, that’s something Ronaldo never achieved. There should be no question that Henry is the greatest striker in history alongside Luis Suarez. Ronaldo didn’t deserve any of his Ballon D’or or FIFA World Player Awards. He was an absolute joke of a player.

People say he wasn't an athlete. C'mon, just imagine reaching 40 km/h almost every single run, while also controling the ball and avoiding legs and feets trying to take you out. His body was strong, indeed, when he was at Barcelona the staff used to say that he had a body like a pro fighter. His playing style was so overwelmingly stressfull that his body couldn't maintain it.
There right he not a athlete in reality he some kinda extraterrestrial!
That's why the knee injuries, his body unfortunately couldn't handle such magic
Actually, i hate football videos with music and ridicilous songs, but in this video with fenomeno i was about to cry. It is so emotional, and if he hadn't injured in his prime, he would have been the best forever. Neither Messi nor cr7 could have reached him, his technique, esthetic and beauty. His game was purely an art and he was an artist. He was just unbelievable. I don't think I'll ever see someone like him again.
He is the best player football has ever seen. No one comes close.
@@09thespecialone absolutely.
no way to deny the fact that player is the god of football
Best player of all time and the history
It is amazing see Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi nowadays, but who saw Ronaldo playing in the ending of 90s and begging of 2000s, could say that he is the best player that ever exists. Not only for skills and strength, but his speed was not from this world, any player could not reach him. He used to kick a little the ball in front and run with a awesome speed.
You say that but those who grew up in the pele era will tell you he was the greatest
@@broxy2007 well I am from this era, but i love to follow and analyze classic football in detail.
I would say Pele is really the greatest of all time.
1-Pele
2-Messi
3-Maradona
4-Ronaldo Nazario (in his prime)
5-Johan Cruyff and Cristiano Ronaldo
The greatest soccer player, I seen Messi and CR7, they are good, but I like a player who has the confidence to go around the goal keeper in big games.
R9 had the most elegant and stylish dribbling tricks than any other football player in history...
Best striker #9 ever...dribbling skills, speed
Great video. Relaxing music. Mesmerizing dribbling. Pure nostalgia
The Absolute Power of R9 in his prime... he would do things that made you feel out of this world, like the first time you heard your favorite song... every. single. game.
I also don’t think that people realize he won a World Cup on 1 knee, and played the second half of his career without cartilages on either knee.
Respeita o negão, dá uma olhada no arsenal e depois volta.
Exceptionnel acceleration plus deadly skills and unique finishing ,all these specs in one body, this is R9 the best ever and forever
The GOAT...in full flight he would be like the Mario in the video game in full speed...such a joy to watch
No body Can play like him ' no body did and no body will ' the best in the history
Inspirational footballer genius who fell from space not human true legend
Original Ronaldo..❤️👌👍❤️❤️
The best players of the all times :
Maradona and R9 !!!
