On this magnificent victory Ronaldo said “I still love football. I love to entertain the fans and the people who love Cristiano. It doesn’t matter the age, it’s all about mentality.”

He further said “It has taken many years of hard work, dedication and passion to achieve what I have in football.”

“Outside of football I’m not there yet, but I’m a competitive guy and I don’t like to be the number two or number three. I always want to be number one. I will do it, 100 per cent.” Ronaldo added.

Earlier on October 7, 2002, a 17-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo scored his first two goals as Sporting CP beat Sporting Moreirense by that same score line 3-0.
