Despite the fact that the eyes of the soccer world are fixed on Real Madrid vs. Manchester City, for the UEFA Champions League semifinals. Now, Cristiano Ronaldo has gone viral on social networks, due to an old interview that has been recovered, where the Portuguese says who is the best player in the world.

These were his exact words: "I am the best player in history, in good times and in bad times (...) I respect everyone's preferences, but I don't see anyone better than me." The answer did not surprise many, since the confidence that one has in oneself has always been worthy of admiration.

Cristiano Ronaldo also explained: "I won the Ballon d'Or before Messi. Then he beat me with four in a row. At that moment I was sad and angry. I went to the award ceremonies but never won. At one point I was even unmotivated,"  Cristiano Ronaldo confessed.

What else did he say?

The Portuguese argued his response: "No footballer does the things that I am capable of. And I do things that others cannot do. There is no player more complete than me," said the legend of Portugal, for France Football. His interview went viral all over the world.
