Cristiano admits that he owes his lucky break to one of his closest friends,Albert Fantrau.

“I have to thank my friend Albert for my success.

We played together for a youth club.

When people from Sporting (Lisbon) arrived, they told us that whoever scored more goals would be accepted to their Academy.

We won that game 3-0, I scored the first goal, the Albert scored a header, and the third was a goal that impressed everyone.

Albert went to one on one with the goalkeeper. I was running next to him, he went round the keeper, all he needed to do was just to get the ball into the empty net.

But, he passed it to me and I scored. I was accepted to the Academy.

After the match, I approached him and asked him “why” and he answered; “You’re better than me”. Several years later, the journalist went to Albert’s house and asked whether the story was true. He confirmed.

He also said that his career as a football player finished after that match and he is now unemployed. “But where did you get such a gorgeous house, a car? You seemed to be a rich person. You also maintain your family … .. Where is all this from?.”

Albert proudly replied; it’s from Cristiano……
