Global soccer fans gathered to see Cristiano Ronaldo’s bicycle kick during the match between Real Madrid and Juventus while being mesmerized by the same thing. Fans cheered for the 33-year-old football star as he attempted the amazing kick, not just in the stadium but also on televisions throughout the globe.
After the game, there was one wonderful observation to be made: Ronaldo is unavoidable, love him or hate him. Juventus (the opposing side) supporters were left applauding for the football star during the first leg of the Champions League Quarterfinal. It also takes a lot to become the star in front of the opponent’s eyes in today’s environment when football teams are idolized.
Forget football tactics; instead, we’ll show you what businesspeople may take away from Ronaldo’s performance of the bicycle kick to win over even their competitors.
Be the very best at what you do.
Can he beat Lionel Messi? has been a common topic surrounding Ronaldo’s football career. Can he put the fame and glory aside and do miracles on the field? etc. The football star, however, astonished everyone with his second goal against Juventus. Because of the second kick’s brilliance, Juventus supporters in their own stadium rose to cheer Ronaldo.
Everyone has praised the goal’s aesthetic attractiveness. Former French captain and former Juventus and Real Madrid player Zinedine Zidane called Cristiano Ronaldo’s strike “one of the most beautiful goals in history.” There are only a select number of us who can do it, the English football player Peter Crouch tweeted.
Additionally, Ronaldo scored, making it his 119th goal overall in the Champions League and 22nd in the quarterfinals alone.
So how can one not respect the footballer’s dedication and skill? Businesspeople, take attention. Few (read: none) people can criticize you when you are bloody good at what you do.
Age cannot tell you when to stop, as evidenced by individuals like Ronaldo who are still performing at their peak at the age of 33. A few months ago, media and football analysts from all over the world discussed Ronaldo’s performance, saying that he was in a “declining” phase. But since turning 33, the Real Madrid attacker has already tallied 39 goals in all competitions.
Standing Out Among Competitors
Messi’s name isn’t too far behind when discussing Ronaldo and his career. The two’s rivalry is often discussed, and tension constantly builds about who will surpass who. That entails a great deal of strain. However, Ronaldo has found a way to excel despite the ambiguity. The Juventus team captain Gianluigi Buffon, who may have been playing in his final Champions League match, didn’t hold back in applauding his opponent. Buffon continued by comparing Ronaldo to players like Pele and Diego Maradona.
Entrepreneurs may learn something from this as well. In the long run, your abilities will carry you forward regardless of how much pressure there is or how hard you are working to stand out in a crowded market.
One thing we would want to tell all of you businesspeople is to keep kicking it like Ronaldo!
