Cristiano Ronaldo Shared a 2-Word Nostalgic Reaction to His Rare Picture From 2001

Cristiano Ronaldo is settling into his new life at Al Nassr FC in Saudi Arabia. After a poor start to his stint in the Saudi Pro League, he found his feet by scoring four goals in a game, surpassing 500 league goals, and then assisting two in the next game.

Ronaldo is preparing for the next game against Damac, who is in seventh place at the table. Al Nassr is in second place behind Al Ittihad with a game in hand and can go to the top of the table with a win. They will bank on their record, signing for a triumph. Meanwhile, the Portuguese icon has shared a nostalgic picture from 2001 amidst his preparation for the Saudi club’s next game.

Cristiano Ronaldo reminisces about the past

It’s common for anyone to visit down memory lane and think about how it all started. Ronaldo is no exception to that. He recently shared a pic from his youth days with Portugal’s U-15 national team with a two-word response, “Time Flies.” 

The former Real Madrid superstar made his debut for the Portuguese U-15 team in 2001 and hasn’t taken a step back since then. Only after two years, in 2003, the Portuguese legend made his senior debut against Kazakhstan in August 2003. Moreover, he came on as a substitute for iconic Luis Figo, whose number seven jersey he donned after the legend’s retirement.

The five-time Ballon d’Or winner is now the top scorer in international soccer with 118 goals to his name. He broke the long-standing record by Iran international Ali Daei of 109 goals last year. In the latest edition of the FIFA World Cup, he became the first player to score at five different World Cups.

The Portuguese finding his feet after torrid last few months

Ronaldo’s 2022-23 season didn’t start well. He missed his pre-season preparations with Manchester United. After the club didn’t make it to the Champions League in the previous season, he asked for a move away but didn’t get it. He came back to the United and soon found himself on the bench more often than playing.

He stormed out of Old Trafford once in frustration before the game ended and was punished for his behavior. But his explosive interview with Piers Morgan changed everything. United agreed to contract mutual termination with the Portuguese star. The five-time Champions League winner had a forgettable World Cup and finally announced his intentions as he completed a blockbuster move to Al Nassr.
