And another Italian legend, also considered one of the greatest defenders of all time - "Ronaldo is the hardest attacker I’ve ever had to face. He was impossible to stop. The worst experience I ever had was playing against Ronaldo when we faced Inter in the 1998 UEFA Cup final in Paris. He’s an incredible player. I have watched that game on video so many times since then, trying to work out what I did wrong. We lost 3-0, but I don’t think now it was my fault. Ronaldo was simply unstoppable. He is so quick he makes everyone else look as if they are standing still.” -- Alessandro Nesta
@@dorlydj No Pele didn't because he played against atrocious defenders and spent his entire career playing against non professional players in Brazil who were playing football part-time. Pele would have been obliterated in the 90s/early 00s Serie A. Especially by Maldini, Nesta and Cannavaro. Shit, he would have been obliterated even in the 80s Serie A.
I’m only 41 but no other player in my life time was as exciting to watch as this guy. U just wanted the ball to go to him constantly to watch something amazing 🙌🏻
If you comare with today's football is really hard to undesrtand. He is the number 9, I mean his position on the field, and he recieves the ball in the middle of the fied and he bring the ball alone like it's the easiest thing. And then he finishes the game after dribbling half of the rival team or he passes the ball like he's playing against kids.
Compravo le VHS e registravo le partite per mandare indietro più volte e capire quello che faceva in campo, perché guardandolo solo in diretta, non era sufficiente per comprendere come facesse a mandare i difensori da un lato far sparire la palla per poi ricomparire dall'altro.
@@marcoscontrerascruz2358 Exactly it was really like that. A grown man playing with little kids. And imagine doing that against the most toughest defenders we have ever seen. That my friend is out of this world class. For me the greatest striker ever.

For those who wants know football before comparing players, I will give you the following important points: #1. Serie A during this era was exteremly challenging and complex competetion. #2. 1 goal in that Serie A means 3 goals in the current Serie A. #3. Best players in the world were playing in that Serie A followed by La Liga, EPL and then Bundesliga. #4. The best defenders like Maldini, Canavaro, Desailly, Thuram, Nesta all said that Ronaldo Nazario is the most difficult player they face with. #5. Ronaldo Nazario never dived, unstoppable and selected as the best player of the decade in Serie A. #6. Ronaldo Nazario was impactful for his clubs and national team. #7. Ronaldo Nazario was one of the best dribblers, playmakers and passer. #8. Ronaldo Nazario is the best striker in history. #9. Ronaldo Nazario is the youngest player who won the Ballon D’or. #10. Ronaldo Nazario scored 47 goals out of 49 games at Barcelona in 96/97 season. Most people say that Ronaldo without injuries could be the best player in history. In my point of view the mistake that Ronaldo did was that his move from Barcelona to Inter Milan. Because Serie A at that time was extremely aggressive. If he were stayed at Barcelona, he would have been won the 1997, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, and even more Ballon D’Ors. If you recognize what I am saying current football stars like Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo are not even close to Ronaldo Nazario.
You only said 2 or 3 things there that are correct. You're probably too young to remember him in his prime and even though he's a great to say Messi isn't better makes everything you said absolutely pointless.
If it weren't for three serious injuries between 1999 and 2000, it was very likely that Ronaldo would have 5 or 6 Ballon d'Ors at the end of his career. The level presented between 1996 and 1998 was completely unplayable and out of this world, before even turning 23 years old.
Actually Ronaldo did have serious injuries in PSV at 2nd season then Barça just muscular when he goes to Inter he had those 3, so actually he was already nerfed at Inter when he had that first one and still manage to deliver bangers
Ronaldo era um jogador tão foda que vc assistia as partidas torcendo pros outros jogadores tocar logo a bola nele, pois toda vez que Ronaldo pegava na bola ele já partia correndo com tudo pra cima da zaga e vc sabia que a qualquer momento ele poderia fazer gol, e parecia que o cara não cansava nunca.
Most of the time, the job of his teammates at Inter was to stand in awe and just appreciate the beauty with which he handled the ball, and try very hard not to interfere with his game play.
The most talented player in history, and the most thrilling to watch too. Great video, you just missed some of the great goals and plays from the UEFA cup in 98.
Inacreditável, força bruta demais, não me impressiona os seus joelhos terem ido a falha, o cara simplismente tinha uma arrancada e uma freada brusca inigualável, os jogadores trombando nele e ele mais firme que ferro no concreto, corria dms, nenhum jogador parecia difícil pra ele, inigualável, imagina esse cara com um joelho mais saudável, que sonho!!

Fico pensando Messi e Cristiano só ganharam tudo àquilo de bola de Ouro por conta de que não tinha ninguém pra tirar dos 2 Na época do Ronaldo se fazia muito menos gols mas tinham vários jogadores de nível extra classe era mais equilibrado A atual geração de futebol é a mais fraca de todas Não tem nenhum gênio todos muito iguais em nível bom mas nada extraordinário

@@dariuswroclawski5521 Ronaldo Fenomeno at his prime in 1997-98 was free kick taker , corner taker , playmaker playing from deep defending and being the main man behind the counter attacks with his dribbling and speed all of that while being also the main goal scorer , and then the injuries came . Im not saying Ronaldo ever had the vision and playmaking of Messi but at his best he could do it pretty well. If you haven't yet watched the friendly match europe vs world from 1997 , watch it i know its a friendly but Ronaldo completely dominated the midfield scored 2 goals and 3 assists , he embarrassed europe so bad he had to be subbed of.

Fino ai 23 anni Ronaldo era superiore a chiunque, poche balle. Van Basten sicuramente fortissimo ma non più di Ronaldo...considera che giocava con dei mostri, sia al Milan che in Nazionale...@@HolaT7h5
4:20 look at that hold up play, under so much pressure even before receiving the ball.. players these days hit the deck immediately - From this video you can really see how special he was, excelling in all aspects of the attacking game... keeping possession, build up play, assists, crazy close control and dribbling, and deadly finishing 🔥 hmmm and without shouting and hawking around the penalty area like some other Ronaldos that we know lol
This is ronaldo who knows all word.. The real ronaldo. A fenomeno. I born at 80' and I remember magician matches and with all Brazilian team with a 3R..Ronaldo Ronaldinho Rivaldo..Fenomeno for ever
what's most interesting is the positions Ronaldo took. He played more like a winger and a #10 than he ever played as a striker. His scoring was entirely due to how good he was, not because he camped in the box. I use Ronaldo as the measuring stick of what it means to be a great attacker. If an attacker cannot influence the game outside of the box, I do not consider him great.
@@ubachiuchendu5385disagree tbh, i would Say players like haaland we're more prominente, and a total unit as him would surely be used as a pure 9 of that era like bierhoff, vieri, Batistuta or mid 2000s like Toni, trezeguet or van nistelrooy
He was a winger, midfielder, striker. He was everything. I do not see any player who is or was better than R9. I do not get tired of watching his videos to see what he did throughout his career. Messi, who? Cr7 who?
Uma satisfação assistir os jogos dele. Sempre coisas diferentes, um portifólio de dribles, e uma capacidade ímpar ambidestra. Chuta bem de longe e de perto, rasteirinha com precisão, forte e alta, longa distância, de primeira se bater no chão, correndo muito ou devagar. Uma besta.
I was born in mid 2000s but I still knew about R9. He was my favourite player to play with in PES 5, 6 along with Ronaldinho. Too bad he was injury prone in those games
What some people don't know is that the ballon d'or back then was viewed as the best "european" footballer i.e. best footballer on the european fields. However, it was the fifa award which was seen as the one which determined the best player of the world and he won that before the ballon d'or at Barcelona. In other words, he was already the best player, factually, during his time in Barcelona.
The great thing about footballers from these earlier eras was the ability to stay on their feet when pressured by defence. So many players these days go for the easy penalty whereas these players would do what they could to stay on their feet.
Thats a Big reason why players of that era retired earlier from injuries compared to nowadays, strikers had a harder time with 1-1 making and pressure from tough defenders, that takes a toll in the knees, the challenges were brutal sometimes and rarely You passed through defenderse without a scratch, no matter how skilled or fast You were
Sentimento lindo, sensacional foi ver Ronaldo, o Fenômeno, atuando em todos os clubes por qual ele desfrutou do seu dom genial, muito bom e emocionante cada partida que tive a oportunidade de acompanhar e torcer p que ele apresentasse o seu melhor nível de jogador, excelente jogador 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Zamorano didn't play for like more than half of the 1997 season too. The only other good attackers were Djorkaeff and Recoba. Djorkaeff wasn't fast and nowhere near top 15 attacker in quality, and Recoba played even less than Zamorano and had piss poor form even in his best seasons.
Ronaldo was for me tha most exciting player. Explosive and sniper precison. Injuries stopped him from absolute dominnation. I enjoyed football back then.
these the types of videos ive been looking for all over YT thank you bro, commentary & the fans cheering really the best not those outdated videos w/ music over them
No wonder his knees exploded.... so much power, just look at his explosiveness , stop and start and intricate turns. His ligaments were working overtime non stop. Maybe with todays training , physio etc we woukd of seen a longer career Hes my goat
I am a 34 year old football fan. I remember well that Ronaldo's lateral movement with his foot completely disappeared after the 2002 World Cup. Before that, it existed
Il faut noter que la calcio était le meilleur championnat d'Europe avec des grands joueurs et des équipes formidable la défense n'en parlons pas cadenacion.
@@davidemaglio5745 not from 18-23 pele is the #1 in history and his 2 early World Cup wins put him way ahead everyone but individual quality and abilities Ronaldo was by far the best he’s the the greatest ever we all know and we all know why he didn’t accomplish it
@@EastBayNorCal Pelé scored 6 goals and 2 crossbars in 3 games in WC as a teenager. In Brazil in one game he scored 7 goals Vs Altafini's team. That was before 1958 WC (I heard from Altafini/Mazola's mouth) In 1962, his second WC, he was universally recognized as the undisputed best player of the world, but he got injured. So R9 and Pelé are the two best teenagers ever, with Maradona close second and Messi third

What some people don't know is that the ballon d'or back then was viewed as the best "european" footballer i.e. best footballer on the european fields.
However, it was the fifa award which was seen as the one which determined the best player of the world and he won that before the ballon d'or at Barcelona.
In other words, he was already the best player, factually, during his time in Barcelona.
thank you!!! amazing highlights!!!
he was and probably still remians the best back to goal player ever. He made the no.9
El fenómeno el mejor de la historia, impresionante lo q fue y más en esos años 97,98 era una locura
The great thing about footballers from these earlier eras was the ability to stay on their feet when pressured by defence. So many players these days go for the easy penalty whereas these players would do what they could to stay on their feet.
Thats a Big reason why players of that era retired earlier from injuries compared to nowadays, strikers had a harder time with 1-1 making and pressure from tough defenders, that takes a toll in the knees, the challenges were brutal sometimes and rarely You passed through defenderse without a scratch, no matter how skilled or fast You were
R9 was phenomenal but my best Brazilian was always Romario who made scoring look effortless!Ronaldo was all about pace,skill and power!
As arrancadas do Ronaldo eram sensacionais. Fora os dribles,passes e gols claro.
The BOAT (best of all time). Maybe didn't have the longest peak/career to be the GOAT, but his best was better than anyone else's.
This is the best and most accurate comment of them all. Well said!
Totally agree
BEST OF history
Maradona was
Sentimento lindo, sensacional foi ver Ronaldo, o Fenômeno, atuando em todos os clubes por qual ele desfrutou do seu dom genial, muito bom e emocionante cada partida que tive a oportunidade de acompanhar e torcer p que ele apresentasse o seu melhor nível de jogador, excelente jogador 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Damn 🔥🔥
Even his teammates couldn't keep up with him
The biggest "what if" in football 🥺
R9 The real Goat 🫲🏽
To those who know, there is no what if. It was witnessed and it was known.
Referees don’t protect him like Messi . We missed all his wonders
When will pristiano tapinaldoggy fans stop crying??😂😂
@@subratabrahma3793pessi fan 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
Лучший в истории атакующий.
El phenomenon
Speed,skills ,IQ, scores , dribbles
This man was the best footballer and realist G I ever seen on d pitch absolute Legend
He's teammates were too slow to back him up. He made a lot of easy assists that were not scored. He was playing too fast for his teammates.
Yes, Djorkaeff, Simeone, Kanu and Zamorano were slow players in modern standards. Ronaldo was too fast for them.
Zamorano didn't play for like more than half of the 1997 season too. The only other good attackers were Djorkaeff and Recoba. Djorkaeff wasn't fast and nowhere near top 15 attacker in quality, and Recoba played even less than Zamorano and had piss poor form even in his best seasons.
He was too fast!
Ronaldo was for me tha most exciting player. Explosive and sniper precison. Injuries stopped him from absolute dominnation. I enjoyed football back then.
these the types of videos ive been looking for all over YT thank you bro, commentary & the fans cheering really the best not those outdated videos w/ music over them
The real
The one
The true
RONALDOOO
messi e cristiano ronaldo grew up watching him and dreaming of becoming like him... It has never happened. He was from another planet.
No wonder his knees exploded.... so much power, just look at his explosiveness , stop and start and intricate turns. His ligaments were working overtime non stop.
Maybe with todays training , physio etc we woukd of seen a longer career
Hes my goat
This is a really best player of the world! What we see today, is Sad !
¡Qué bestia! Para mí está en el top 3 de los mejores de siempre
The player who made us fall in love with beautiful game, even goalkeepers had number 9 on their backs
I am a 34 year old football fan. I remember well that Ronaldo's lateral movement with his foot completely disappeared after the 2002 World Cup. Before that, it existed
No one comes close to the Fenomeno
I believe R9 is up there in the same bracket as Messi, Maradona and Pele.
Yeah guys you think Messi or cr7 ist goat. Our Generation is he the goat. He bring the Football to the next Level.
This is what Mbappe thinks he is
😂
And he still has the audacity to act like a spoiled brat
Haters in this bitch
Mbappe has a chance to make history still
Btw R9 is the GOAT
Ronaldo da Lima was like a jaguar!
yes, the best striker this sport has ever seen.
Il faut noter que la calcio était le meilleur championnat d'Europe avec des grands joueurs et des équipes formidable la défense n'en parlons pas cadenacion.
The Real Ronaldo the greatest player ever pre 23 years of age from 18-23 the greatest ever even Maradona and pele Weren’t that dam good at that age
Pelè was...
@@davidemaglio5745 not from 18-23 pele is the #1 in history and his 2 early World Cup wins put him way ahead everyone but individual quality and abilities Ronaldo was by far the best he’s the the greatest ever we all know and we all know why he didn’t accomplish it
@@EastBayNorCal Pelé scored 6 goals and 2 crossbars in 3 games in WC as a teenager.
In Brazil in one game he scored 7 goals Vs Altafini's team. That was before 1958 WC (I heard from Altafini/Mazola's mouth)
In 1962, his second WC, he was universally recognized as the undisputed best player of the world, but he got injured.
So R9 and Pelé are the two best teenagers ever, with Maradona close second and Messi third
@@davidemaglio5745in the local paulista championships Pele scored 58 goals and this was in 1958 also
Pelé ganhou copa do mundo sendo protagonista com apenas 16 anos de idade. Incomparável
Ronaldo além de toda gama de jogadas, tinha o melhor x1 contra os goleiros ( Tem até entrevista dele explicando o racicionio dos lances ) R9 é o futebol !!
Absolutely love this video
Só Pelé pode ser comparado, isso pq deu 3 copas do mundo 😮😮😮 mas nenhum outro jogador jamais será como fenômeno!
Só agradeço a DEUS por ele ter jogado no Corinthians 🙌🙌!!
This guy is too great that his body simply couldn't handle it
Good analogy.
Ronaldo fenómeno 😍
Number one il fenomeno
Da fans of Ac Milan : il migliore assolutamente degli ultimi 30 anni .
Without injuries 🤕 one cannot imagine what stats he would have achieved. Still one of the Goat 🐐 of all time.
