*Ron: My strengths and weaknesses* Sunday 25 February, 2007 ------------------------------ Ronaldo looked back at the 1998 World Cup Final, his past and future as Il Fenomeno. "But I'm still terrible at headers!"
"It's been 10 years since I first wore the Inter jersey in Serie A. I'm still very motivated and eager, which is why I came to Milan. This is my biggest challenge and that's what makes football such a passion," he told Sky Italia. Many doubted whether Ronaldo's move from Real Madrid in January was a good business decision by the Rossoneri, as he had become more famous for his weight and string of glamorous girlfriends than his sporting achievements. "It's true I have lost some of my pace, but I can still do some pretty good stuff in a brief sprint. I'm still a disaster at headers, though. I train on it so much, but I can't seem to improve!" In the interview he also looked back on perhaps the darkest moment of his career the mystery illness that struck him just before the 1998 World Cup Final. "I remember all of it. I came back to my room after lunch and I felt ill. I fainted for around five minutes, I believe. Then the doctors arrived and Leonardo was there too," he explained. "I was out cold and didn't know what was going on, so when I came to it was as if nothing had happened. I remember Leo was walking with me towards the restaurant, as we needed a snack before the game, and I couldn't understand why he was telling me a World Cup Final wasn't all that important." The striker had originally been left out of the squad to face France in that Final, but was put back in at the last minute just hours after he had been knocked unconscious by a seizure that to this day remains unexplained. "I was wondering why he was telling me all this, seeing as we were going to play that evening. 'It's not so important, in life there are so many other wonderful things like family and love,' he kept saying. I asked why and Leo answered I would find out later, he'd explain it all." -- Cavaliere AC Milan atau tidak sama sekal!
