Ever since his frequent injuries, the biggest criticism from the outside world had been that he was lazy.
Lack of running had become Ronaldo's trademark.
"Thankfully, I'm fine."
Ronaldo looked on with envy. Turning to Figo and Owen, he smiled and said, "He's definitely much better than me in that respect. I've been injured so often over the years, my body's gotten a bit heavy, and I can't really run anymore."
When he said he couldn't run, it wasn't in the traditional sense.
Rather, if he spent all his stamina and energy on general running, he wouldn't be able to sprint when he finally got the ball and needed to.
It was a strategy of conserving his energy for the moments that truly mattered.
"On that note, I've just realized—you haven't been injured at all since your debut," Figo added, having stumbled upon another remarkable fact.
"That's truly rare."
Ronaldo and Owen were both incredibly envious.
