“I
have to thank my friend Albert Fantrau for my success. We played
together for a youth club. When people from sporting arrived, they told
us that whoever scored more goals would be be accepted to their
Academy”
“We won that game 3-0, I
scored the first goal, then Albert scored a header, and the third was a
goal that impressed everyone. Albert went on one on one with the goal
keeper. 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 after,
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 from? Albert proudly replied;
its from Cristiano Ronaldo.
