said would happen has happened.

Little Jorge. Dance!

Hold on! Come here.

Shall we go home?

Let's go home.

Straighten his feet.

- Put him in the back.

- C'mon, son, go in the back.

- Open it.

- It's open.

- See you tomorrow.

- See you tomorrow, Mum.

I have limpets at home for you.

I'll tell Henrique

to come and get them.

- OK, and can he cook them?

- I'll tell him to cook them.

You need to explain to him how to do it.

Hi, how are you?

- Fine. You?

- Fine.

Hi, how are you?

Fine, and you?

Look, Daddy's going to make a drink.

Do you want to try a little bit?

- No.

- No? OK. Then I'll do it just for me.

Alright?

Or do you not want a little bit?

- Just a little bit.

- A little bit for me.

Just a little bit for you to try.

Yes. I want the Portug... No...

- The Ferrari one?

- Yes, because it's mine.

The Ferrari one.

See if you like it.

That's for you to become very strong!

Look at Daddy's arm, look.

Don't you want to be big like Daddy?

Huh?

Oh, wow!

It's very good.

Come on. Finish painting

so we can go and play football.

Come on.

It's nearly done.

You like it, huh?

Good.

You will be... Whoa!

- You're going to be very strong!

- Touch it.

That's it. Look at the ball.

I tricked you.

That's it.

That's it.

Now it's bedtime.

Come. This way.

To your bed!

Give Daddy a kiss.

Sleep well. Give Daddy a hug.

Come on. Let's go.

Wait! Let me take out the blankets.

Go.

Bye. See you later.

There are twelve days remaining until

Portugal's first game at the World Cup

and the main concern

for the Portuguese football team

is the most famous acronym

in the world... CR7.

Cristiano Ronaldo

has a physical problem.

He is limited by injuries

to his thigh and knee.

Portugal's going to win the World Cup!

Before the Champions League,

with 15 days to go, I was injured.

I think it was an accumulation.

Every year I play more than 60 games.

Either you stop for two or three months

or you learn to live with the pain

and have the psychological strength

to endure it.

I can endure the pain because I think

there's something stronger.

Maybe if I didn't feel the pain,

maybe I wouldn't be as good as I am.

Give us a smile! Give us a smile!

Hello?

Are you joking or what?

Yes?

- Hello?

- Yes.

- Hello.

- Yes, Mum.

- You don't have any network, Ronaldo.

- Mum, I'm inside the hotel.

You don't want me to go out to

the woods to find a network, do you?

OK. OK. Call me when you have signal.

Will do. OK.

- Here, Ronaldo. Talk to your father!

- Hello, Daddy!

- Send kisses.

- Kisses.

- Say "Go, Portugal!"

- Go, Portugal!

I love you very much.

Daddy loves you very much too, son.

Kisses.

- Kisses.

- Bye.

- Bye.

- Bye.

Cristiano, are you

feeling 100 percent now?

99.9 percent.

OK. This part's cool.

And...

It's Cristiano's favorite color.

I love you, Daddy.

When are you coming back?

It's now. It's now.

Beautiful! A round of applause.

Beautiful!

Wherever the national team goes,

all the attention

is on Cristiano Ronaldo.

Naturally, we're talking

about the best player in the world.

Cristiano Ronaldo says he feels

99.9 percent ready for the World Cup.

CR7 left for Campinas in a good mood.

Cristiano Ronaldo

shows that he's confident.

He's not afraid of using the leg

that's fragile at the moment.

We need to remember

it's patella tendonitis...

Gaspar. Gaspar.

Did you bring the ice?

Gaspar, I'm talking to you.

Why are you asking now we're on the bus

rather than outside?

He forgot about you yesterday

and forgot about me today.

Honestly, Gaspar!

If it had been Cristiano asking,

he'd bring a suitcase full of ice.

A suitcase!

There couldn't be more at stake

for Ronaldo and the Portuguese team.

It's going to be essential for Ronaldo

to do well in this World Cup

if he's to retain his Ballon d'Or.

Let's go!

Let's go! Let's go! Let's go!

- The ball, the ball... Ball.

- Ball.

Let's crush them!

Go, go, go, go, go!

Let's go!

Let's believe we are a great team.

Let's go!

No. He has the telephone number

of the agent.

Don't worry! He will take

care of everything.

The match is going to start

in half an hour.

Any other player would not have

played in the World Cup

because Cristiano was in

no condition to play a World Cup.

Everybody that I spoke to said,

"He's going to put his career at risk."

"He shouldn't play."

It could have become a serious problem.

It's over. It's over.

Look here! It's time to wake up.

Frustration starts kicking in

on the pitch.

That's what happened.

Frustration, being beaten four-nil,

starting the World Cup

in the worst possible way.

It was the worst thing

that could have happened to us.

We hadn't met people's expectations,

what the Brazilian people

helped us with.

I think we couldn't

give it back to them.

Look at that. Look!

He reacted quickly.

Let her go, man! Let her go!

Let her go!

She was at the hotel waiting

for you yesterday.

- This girl?

- Yes, the same one.

- I didn't see her.

- Cristiano, she jumped this fence.

Yes, security told me.

We'll meet her in a bit.

She's fine physically.

She must be physically fit

to be able to jump this fence.

- And you? Are you physically fit?

- Everything's fine.

- Everything? A hundred percent?

- A hundred percent.

Thanks, Cristiano Ronaldo.

Don't they want to talk to me as well?

Thank you for everything.

Thank you for everything.

I did it!

- You did?

- I did.

- What did Cristiano tell you?

- He knows I exist.

He asked me to stay calm

and stop crying, to take care.

He asked what my name is

and I asked him to follow me on Twitter.

- Three times a day...

- Don't exceed three per day.

- Can I take one now?

- Yes, you can.

- At night?

- Exactly.

OK. And tomorrow?

If you want to, take it when

you're feeling too anxious like now.

I'm going to take one now because

I'm already feeling agitated. OK.

- OK?

- OK.

- Hello?

- What's up, Maria? How's everything?

Have you taken the sedatives?

- Have you taken the sedatives?

- What?

Have you taken the sedatives?

Take it easy. It's only a game.

Don't be upset, and don't stress out

because it'll go well.

It'll go well, God willing.

Take it easy! Don't be upset!

It's only a game...

It's only a football game,

not a matter of life and death.

- No one's going to die!

- OK, but... We have to win!

OK. But take it easy. No worries.

No worries. No worries.

OK, then. A kiss, Mum. Bye. Bye.

Carla?

My young man is looking beautiful,

isn't he?

- Both of them!

- Ha! No, the little one.

I'm talking about the little one.

And so, tomorrow... Are you ready

to watch the World Cup game?

I am, but it's always that thing

and it's a match we have to win.

- Of course.

- We have to win.

And you see, being old,

I get more nervous.

- No, you're not...

- It's true. It's true.

I think that when I was younger,

I dealt with it better,

whether they won or lost.

But not now. I suffer more now.

But, Dolores, you must be used to
