Quotes from Cristiano Ronaldo of not winning the world cup:
Reflecting on Portugal’s 2022 World Cup exit:
“Winning a World Cup? It’s a dream, but I’m not obsessed. I don’t see football as an obsession. I’m calm. If it happens, it happens.”
After Portugal’s loss in the 2018 World Cup:
“We fought hard, but we didn’t achieve what we wanted. We must be proud of what we did in this World Cup, but we leave with sadness because we could have gone further.”
On his personal achievements versus not winning the World Cup:
“I’ve won everything at the club level, and I’ve achieved many individual records. Of course, I would love to win the World Cup, but it doesn’t define my career.”
Talking about the end of his international career:
“I don’t think much about the future. I live in the present, and I’ll keep playing as long as I feel good and can help my team. But even if I don’t win a World Cup, my career has been incredible.”
Cristiano Ronaldo may have never won a World Cup for his home country, Portugal, but he sure is undoubtedly the most popular sports celebrity in this world. He has already got a whopping 636 million followers on Instagram, making him the most followed person on Meta’s social media platform.
He is also the richest athlete in the world in 2024, according to Forbes.
Now he has recently decided to create his very own YouTube channel just this Wednesday. Below you can find some of his record breaking stats on Google’s video platform:
He got 1 million YouTube subscribers inside 90 minutes of launching it.
- In ten hours, he passed the 10 million subscriber mark.
- He surpassed 32 million subscribers in just two days.
- He surpassed 50 million subscribers in only seven days.

Right now Cristiano Ronaldo has got 50.8 million YouTube subscribers, and he is soon going to pass that 100 million subscriber mark but people are expecting him to soon compete with the king of YouTube, Mr. Beast, who has amassed over 312 million YouTube subscribers.
I think Cristiano Ronaldo will easily surpass Mr. Beast because, as soon as he launched his YouTube channel, he shared it with his 636 Instagram followers, so he knows how to market his brand. It will be interesting to see what happens in the coming times, though, as we see more YouTube records being shattered by the former Manchester United and Real Madrid football icon.
