  • Not a big fan of Cristiano but those tears are from someone who worked very very hard to get where he is now. Congrats Cristiano
  • @RiCkStAr911
    Just shows how passionate he is about his sport and that's why I like him!
  • @ln3257
    Those tears from him, his mother,from Irina.. they don't lie.. they've seen the lengths this man goes to.. the hardwork he puts in.. this man to me is an inspiration..
    It'll be a very sad day when he does hang up his boots.. that day,millions will have tears in their eyes..
  • @prodbynoel
    I don't know why but this gets to me everytime...his reaction is so genuine
  • @Adam9306
    That's a lot of frustration in those tears. Deep down y'all know he's deserved that trophy more than twice. RONALDO=BEAST
  • @2Pseudonym1
    seeing his mother in (happy) tears really made me emotional. ronaldo and his family had to make sacrifices to make him who he is today, and the award is for them all. those years in lisbon away from home and family paid off. personally for me, to see a player i first watched in 2003 pick up a major gong for the 2nd time in his career 10 years on is a very emotional moment. i feel like i'm part of the journey. you are my biggest inspiration, cristiano.
  • @mrselbendadi
    Love him for showing his emotions! What a great and talented man! Thumbs up Cristiano- You're a legend! :-*
  • @Akashpatel525
    For those who don't know. Today,Ronaldo bought all of his Physios ( people that keep him from being injured) new cars for keeping him fit enough to win the ballon d'or. how can someone this caring deserve the hatred?? 
  • @vetulani
    You worked so hard baby! I am with you since you were 20 years old! And will be forever! My idol!

  • @Gusstra
    Anyone who hates on Ronaldo never have won something or just never had any goals in their own life.Lames... but RESPECT TO RONALDO
  • I'm more of a Messi fan, but Cristiano Ronaldo deserved it this year. I'm glad they got it right.
  • @SKNBeatz

  • @SoccrFrk4life
    Yeah. No matter who wins the award, these footballers make me enjoy football. Enough of hating a footballer. I respect these guys because they make the most beautiful sport entertaining.
  • Finally....Finally all the hard work has paid off....well deserved, and many years waiting. Two time Ballon D'Or winner....finally!
  • @EditxSB
    Man came from zero..and became the greatest footballer of all time. ❤️🙏
  • @norel457
    Not a fan of his but I cry every single time I watch this video he deserves all the success and love he gets
  • @barchen5892
    You can not compare Ronaldo and Messi.. They are two totally different players.
    Look, Ronaldo has been working his ass off since he was twelve, to get where he is now. Ronaldo's way was totally much harder than Messi's. Ronaldo had a hard time, his father was a alcoholic, and he died when Ronaldo was very young. Ronaldo also had to move from his family to bet on football.

    And Messi, has always been good in football. He was born good, he got picked up by Barcelona when he was 10 years old. And Messi has always been there..

    Also, Many thinks Ronaldo is a bad guy and a ego. But his the opposite. All the money Ronaldo got from EUFA EURO 2016 he gave it to people who needs it, while Messi gave incorrect information about how much he earned to avoid paying tax on any money. So no one can say Ronaldo is a worse person than Messi. They both are great. I'm not a Messi hater or something, i just want you Ronaldo haters to know that Ronaldo is a great person, and you should respect him more.
    My opinion is just that Ronaldo has been working much harder than Messi to come where he is. And Ronaldo gets alot of hate because of his reactions and how fast he gets angry, but, yoo, everyone has their own problem. And Ronaldo is working on it, respect him! <3

    Thanks.
