Before his first major injury (at age 23) Ronaldo R9 had 50% more goals than Messi at the same point in their respective career, and he had 100% more goals (twice as many) than CR7 at the same point in their careers.
Right on. One of the very few that had it all. Strenght, dribbels, ball controll, power, dubbel footed and you could give him the ball and he would destroy whom ever that was infront of him, 1, 2, 4, 6 players 🤷🏻♂️🤣. And so much more. The real nr 9. When you give the ball to a nr.9 he should be able to do it himself. Not only score from standing in the box but score from everywhere. 🤙🏻❤️ As Steve under said.

Make no mistake about this.... in his prime he was and is still today the greatest striker of all time bar none. I know people enjoy watching zlatan but I can't stress to you enough how many light-years ahead r9 was of zlatan and most other players.

I love football and I love watching it. Ronaldo is the first player I consider a real phenomenon. I am not exaggerating in my words. I watched this player in 1998. It was unbelievable. We were waiting for the World Cup to witness the phenomenon. Greetings to Brazil, I am from Morocco
Kids of today who barely started watching football and all they've seen is Messi and CR7 certify that either Messi or CR7 are the best of all time when they don't know anything about history of the sport. And the crazy thing is that they get angry when someone has a different opinion and call it bs. Older people like me who have watched the sport long can tell you that Messi nor CR7 were as complete as R9. Kids of today like to use numbers written on Google as their proof, like the 91 goals of Messi in 2011-12 , and for that, Messi is their goat. Me personally, I judge a player based on what my eyes see, the talent, the dribble, the strength and rising to the top when is needed most. Number of goals are highly influenced by the team you play for ( playing for powerful clubs like Madrid or Barcelona will just by itself give you a higher probability of scoring more goals than if you were playing for lower teams like Villarreal, Valencia, New Castle, Napoli, etc). I really don't think Messi nor CR7 would have reached same numbers if they played in the same teams as R9 did. Notice that R9 came new to a regular Barcelona not the best Barcelona ever as Messi in the time of Guardiola. Because even if Messi who was coming up from lower category in Barcelona where he was already loved and knew his teammates, his numbers the first years were not same as R9 in his first and only season. That's what sets R9 apart for me, that basically he didn't needed to be a player for whom the rest of the team would play for, he didn't need creative players like Xavi and Iniesta to become top scorer everywhere he went. And those who watched R9 from the beginning know that he started destroying the Brazilian league as a 16 year old new kid on the block with no respect whatsoever from teammates, but somehow everywhere he went, all the teams and different leagues he played at before his injury, he became top scorer no matter the opponents or his own teammates. Before injury, I can say R9 was a player who you could put in any team and he would end up being a top scorer. I don't like to talk about what I haven't seen, like pele, but for me without a doubt R9 is the best player my eyes have seen. And for those kids who like statistics so much and base their judgement only on that, I have one for them: out of Messi, CR7 and R9, the highest percentage of scoring for their country is R9 followed closely by CR7 and Messi is the lowest of the three. Messi fans can't argue that it was because Brazil was a better team and thus the reason why R9 has higher scoring percentage because then why would CR7 have higher scoring percentage than Messi if Argentina surely is better than Portugal. R9 is the GOAT for me.
He had pace, sublime dribbling, strength and great finishing. Greatest all out striker in history imo and that's despite having a short prime because those damn knee injuries and illness.
When he was playing pitches weren't perfect like now, football shoes was much heavier etc. If not for his injuries he would have been the GOAT. For me he is.
dumb excuses, petches were bad for all players, boots were heavier for all players. how do you know if he would be the goat, if not injuries. maybe he would have been even a bigger failure. get outta internet for a minute, real life awaits you

This video doesn’t show Ronaldo’s greatness, you need to react to “Exactly how good was Ronaldo Nazario" This guy was the perfect football player. Interesting story.
He was a beast of a player. So many players looked up to this guy as the benchmark. What makes him even more remarkable is that we now know he was playing with excruciating pain most of the time due to long standing injuries.
Ronaldo was and still is the best striker that has played the game. One thing that I haven't seen mentioned is that the balls in those times were heavy compared to the modern balls so to see those long shots was way more magical.
You must have just missed Garrincha, nicknamed "The Joy of the People". He had a personality like Ronaldinho with the work habits of Romario (aka none :D ).
On the topic of soccer, legendary German player and manager Franz Beckenbauer died this week. He was involved in the sport before most of you were born, but (as CBS said in their report on his death), he "is widely regarded as the best footballer Germany has ever produced". I had the chance to see him play twice when he was with the Cosmos, and it was always worth the ticket price.
There’s no doubt that he would have been the greatest by far if he didn’t had those awful injuries. He was 19 when he was the best in the world. 19. The Messi’s and Cristiano’s of this world were still substitutes at that age
To describe him the best - Every single club, scout, and manager in the entire world is looking for the next Ronaldo.. And they have been doing that for a long time now! The speed, the skill, the strenght, the vision, the finishing, heading - He could do it all at the very best of levels ever seen - The greatest striker in football still to this day!
I have no idea how you have managed to find a video with R9 Ronaldo , where he hardly scores, this guy was the greatest strike of all time (him or Romario)
Ronaldo had knee injuries that took 2 prime years off of his career. He came back for like 3 months before the 2002 World Cup and led Brazil to victory. His era of Brazil is one of the reasons why people talk so highly of Brazil as a soccer nation. He was so famous in the 90s, FIFA couldn't even get his rights for the video games.
Despite all injuries to his knee all his years ....still he is the best.... If God could gave him good health.....what he could be in his prime time.....
Brazilian Ronaldo at his prime was 10 levels above messi, cristiano etc, he had everything, speed, strenght, pace, pass, finishing, dribles. The complete player...!
Not rlly, Messi was better than him at passing dribbling for sure and other like speed finishing kinda same. Only at strength Nazario was better at that. Still CR had different stages of his pro play, but overall definetly better finisher than Nazario. Like longshots, headers and finishing in the box including tap ins that means better finishing.. And speed, pace, strenght would say better not by "10 levels" but still better. Only at dribbling was CR worse and maybe passes. I guess you r just fan delusional and not being objective. Nobody was or is good as Messi and CR in those criterias.
The explosion, the speed with the ball, the shift of directions, the calm/cold blood in front of them goalies, and most people don't realize R9 suffered from 2 " career ending " injuries
Ronaldo Nazario is the Drose of football. Could’ve been goat status if it wasn’t for injuries. He even moves like him, his agility and low centre of gravity was crazy man.
It wasn't in the video but the goal vs Atlético Madrid is one of my favorite the acceleration and the way he finished was out of this world. Him, Kaka, and Ronaldinho were my idols growing up.
Best ever, except for injuries. Have you seen Zidane?? Pure genius. Zlatan's highlights are nice but R9, Messi, Ronaldo and Zidane and are levels above
PELÉ is the GOAT - 3x Word Cup champion, 0.944 gol/game in his carer (the highest average oh the history of the sport, more than Messe and CR7), He had everything a player can have: strength, speed, skill, impulsion, heading, he shot well with both legs, took free kicks, organized the team, made many assists, and in addition to being a top scorer, he is first or among the first. in all offensive aspects of the sport.
Ronaldo Nazario R9 just beats everyone out of complete instinct It is the most effortless genius amd completely instinctual playstyle ever R9 was the complete footballer He is indescribable Had it not been for his injuries, he would've been the greatest But as they said "there aren't legs strong enough to hold R9"
For anyone wondering.. Ronaldo is the greatest striker in the opinion of some of the greats.. He had really be knee injuries which cut his prime short..and he had a thyroid problem which ment he couldn't lose weight late in his prime..that saw him lose alot of his speed. and with all of that.. Hes still is the youngest ballon dor winner ever.. And would've won it even sooner if he wasnt robbed And won it again after that Hes won w world cups And was the top scorer in them And won every cup in the world multiple times
I am Portuguese and ofc i love Cristiano Ronaldo (forever of of the very best GOATS! The man is just a machine of football and had incredible dribling skills when younger) but if there is a player that for me is the literal GOAT of football is Ronaldo- R9- The Phenomenon! His natural skills even at 16 were pure insanity and at the peak of his form it was like you had Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo combined in 1 single player! Pure raw driblling-skill, physical power, speed and cirugical technique + he just LOVED to fuck around with the goal-keeper in 1 vs 1 🤣
Y'all this is young Ronaldo. DO yourselves a favor and do his legendary mixtape. I would give this a 4/10 for showing his actual highlights and skills. Love watching your videos, please redo this one!!!!!
I think even Ronaldo agrees that the GOAT is Pelé, the King. Just look for "Pelé did first" and "Pelé highlights", watch it, and please, never forget what you see. There was only one King. And that is Pelé. 👑⚽
For all the Americans who don’t know: Imagine Chicago Bulls Derrick Rose; without the knee injuries - this is Ronaldo R9. He was perfect combo of athleticism and pure raw natural skill. Knee injuries took most of the athleticism away. What you saw is his young days but he was forced to refine his game, bulk up, and it was a slow trajectory down from there - but still finished top 5 to ever do it. Some say D Rose would’ve matched LeBron in that era. Even though, Ronaldo was way older than Messi - what he could’ve been without knee injuries would’ve probably eclipsed Messi.
The clips did Ronaldo dirty, he was far better than the highlights showed. Even towards the end of his career at madrid he was immense. Also the only striker out there as good as Ronaldo was Batistuta, that player was the best finisher ive ever seen.
one of the best players to ever step on a field. one of a kind striker, on and off the ball. our "penta" (5th world cup title) has his name written all over it. a real generational player, the one and only Fenômeno. great reaction!
Still to this day the best number 9 in history of football.
Before his first major injury (at age 23) Ronaldo R9 had 50% more goals than Messi at the same point in their respective career, and he had 100% more goals (twice as many) than CR7 at the same point in their careers.

Still CR had different stages of his pro play, but overall definetly better finisher than Nazario. Like longshots, headers and finishing in the box including tap ins that means better finishing.. And speed, pace, strenght would say better not by "10 levels" but still better. Only at dribbling was CR worse and maybe passes. I guess you r just fan delusional and not being objective. Nobody was or is good as Messi and CR in those criterias.
The explosion, the speed with the ball, the shift of directions, the calm/cold blood in front of them goalies, and most people don't realize R9 suffered from 2 " career ending " injuries
The Real Ronaldo. Greatest 9 ever
Ronaldo Nazario is the Drose of football.
Could’ve been goat status if it wasn’t for injuries.
He even moves like him, his agility and low centre of gravity was crazy man.
Mbappe is similar to Ronaldo Nazario and Drose as-well
@@mxightymikeMbape is good but he got was to go to R9… but he is talented..
Congratulations, you just summoned 200 million Brazilians who love the R9! 🇧🇷❤️
GOAT. Ronaldo Navarro. The phenomenon
It wasn't in the video but the goal vs Atlético Madrid is one of my favorite the acceleration and the way he finished was out of this world. Him, Kaka, and Ronaldinho were my idols growing up.
Best ever, except for injuries. Have you seen Zidane?? Pure genius. Zlatan's highlights are nice but R9, Messi, Ronaldo and Zidane and are levels above
You guys need to watch Ronaldinho, he’ll blow your mind. Best player on the planet for 2 years, craaaazy skill
PELÉ is the GOAT - 3x Word Cup champion, 0.944 gol/game in his carer (the highest average oh the history of the sport, more than Messe and CR7), He had everything a player can have: strength, speed, skill, impulsion, heading, he shot well with both legs, took free kicks, organized the team, made many assists, and in addition to being a top scorer, he is first or among the first. in all offensive aspects of the sport.
Ronaldo is the Greatest player ever,but without the trophys and awards.lnjuries hampered his true greatness.No player came close to him at his peak.
Guys…Fenomino isn’t his last name, it’s Nazario 😊😅 they mean ‘il fenomino’ - the phenomenon.
The top 5 of football for me is Pelé, Maradona, Cruyff, R9 and Zidane.
Ronaldo Nazario
R9 just beats everyone out of complete instinct
It is the most effortless genius amd completely instinctual playstyle ever
R9 was the complete footballer
He is indescribable
Had it not been for his injuries, he would've been the greatest
But as they said "there aren't legs strong enough to hold R9"
For anyone wondering..
Ronaldo is the greatest striker in the opinion of some of the greats..
He had really be knee injuries which cut his prime short..and he had a thyroid problem which ment he couldn't lose weight late in his prime..that saw him lose alot of his speed.
and with all of that..
Hes still is the youngest ballon dor winner ever..
And would've won it even sooner if he wasnt robbed
And won it again after that
Hes won w world cups
And was the top scorer in them
And won every cup in the world multiple times
This man was the Phenom of football ⚽️ he did everything there is to do with no knees
R 9 was a legend !!
Now you see the real best player of history in this sport. Pre injury Ronaldo is a real monster.
And this is the ORIGINAL Ronaldo. The first and only!
He’s got two ballon d’or
I am Portuguese and ofc i love Cristiano Ronaldo (forever of of the very best GOATS! The man is just a machine of football and had incredible dribling skills when younger) but if there is a player that for me is the literal GOAT of football is Ronaldo- R9- The Phenomenon! His natural skills even at 16 were pure insanity and at the peak of his form it was like you had Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo combined in 1 single player! Pure raw driblling-skill, physical power, speed and cirugical technique + he just LOVED to fuck around with the goal-keeper in 1 vs 1 🤣
Ronaldo Phenomenon and Adriano Emperor were the last best number 9s in the Brazilian team.
U guys are the best. When I watch your videos, I feell like I am with my friends or family xD. Keep up the good work.
Best finisher, composed dribbler.
Y'all this is young Ronaldo. DO yourselves a favor and do his legendary mixtape. I would give this a 4/10 for showing his actual highlights and skills. Love watching your videos, please redo this one!!!!!
I think even Ronaldo agrees that the GOAT is Pelé, the King.
Just look for "Pelé did first" and "Pelé highlights", watch it, and please, never forget what you see.
There was only one King.
And that is Pelé. 👑⚽
This player made me fall in love with football. R9 is what hes known as. Prob an all timer.
Now this is the REAL RONALDO. This is the ACTUAL greatest player of all time.
Wow haven’t had a football reaction from y’all in a while 🔥🔥🔥
Love the sports videos ❤
R9 itself is a combination of cr7 and leo skills
Original Ronaldo doesn’t get enough credit
You need to see Romario the best Brazilian player ever , one of the best striker in history .
And Rivaldo was something else too .
For all the Americans who don’t know:
Imagine Chicago Bulls Derrick Rose; without the knee injuries - this is Ronaldo R9. He was perfect combo of athleticism and pure raw natural skill. Knee injuries took most of the athleticism away. What you saw is his young days but he was forced to refine his game, bulk up, and it was a slow trajectory down from there - but still finished top 5 to ever do it.
Some say D Rose would’ve matched LeBron in that era. Even though, Ronaldo was way older than Messi - what he could’ve been without knee injuries would’ve probably eclipsed Messi.
The clips did Ronaldo dirty, he was far better than the highlights showed. Even towards the end of his career at madrid he was immense.
Also the only striker out there as good as Ronaldo was Batistuta, that player was the best finisher ive ever seen.
Incredible player. Was every kids favorite player in my school in sweden.
Always love to see your reactions to football/soccer
We need an ‘Adel tarrabt steers won’t forget’ reaction you guys would love his style
The Jordan of soccer, he was the player who made fans fantasize the most, a monster...
Fenômeno is Phenomenal in Portuguese. He’s Brazilian !
Cartier family appreciating some solid brazil soccer finesse, fun fact: Ronaldo is Zlatan’s Idol!!
Best striker (usually jersey 9) that existed.
The channel has the best highlights and good background music
My idol, he play when football were not soft like today
Will always be my favourite CF of all time
Best Player I've ever seen Ronaldo (El Fenomeno)
You don't realize this man blew out his knee and came back to win a world cup
Good content as always
one of the best players to ever step on a field. one of a kind striker, on and off the ball. our "penta" (5th world cup title) has his name written all over it. a real generational player, the one and only Fenômeno. great reaction!
Finally! Now you only have to check JJ Okocha, and the quest is complete. Great channel tho, I enjoy watching your videos guys!
He had the biggest potential. His explosiveness was so deadly that his own knees couldn't handle it.
