Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the greatest forwards in the history of football. The Portuguese superstar has seen a lot of adversity in his life and it has only made him stronger as a person. His strong mentality can be seen in the way he approaches his career and everything around it.
Recently, Ronaldo and his partner Georgina Rodriguez were expecting twins, a boy, and a girl. However, the baby boy tragically passed away during childbirth. The girl is healthy and doing well, and the entire world of football showed their love for Ronaldo’s family.
Liverpool fans were there for the forward too, as, during United’s league match against Jurgen Klopp’s team, the fans in the stadium began applauding in the seventh minute. Today, Real Madrid fans did the same during the club’s match against Espanyol.
