16 goals for Cristiano in La Liga,

and the fifth penalty

for the Portuguese player.

They appear to be

on the best form ever.

Ronaldo and Real Madrid

are clearly imposing themselves

in this match against Barcelona.

Goal, Cristiano.

The three points stay with Madrid

at the Bernabu.

Real Madrid and the fans celebrate

this very important victory

for Carlo Ancelotti's team.

A three-one win.

The local team, Real Madrid,

was undoubtedly better than Barcelona.

It's a huge party here

at the Santiago Bernabu.

The people I trust the most

and that I feel the most...

Esteem. Esteem.

- Esteem and friendship for.

- And feel friendship for.

If you want to talk, you can do it!

But in fact the people I trust

the most are present here.

I want that to be clear. It's true.

I'm saying it from the heart.

I hope we can do this again

because it'll mean we're happy

and things are...

- And alive.

- Alive and doing well. Thank you, all.

Well done!

- To the best!

- Health!

The best thing to do

is put all your money

in that vault you have in your room.

It doesn't fit.

Do you think it fits in there?

Big Jorge!

We started from nothing.

Jorge, we started from nothing

and now...

Big Jorge didn't have anything either.

He went around selling videotapes and...

- And playing music.

- And look at the man now.

Straw hats.

- And now he's always wearing Rolex.

- This one's a fake.

I come from a good family.

They were just dirt poor.

They were.

- Old times!

- Great episodes.

Great episodes lived with big Jorge.

Now for the best one, Jorge.

You need a drink.

As for my friend Hugo,

I still remember the past and things

that don't need to be talked about now.

I'm proud of him because he

overcame his adversities.

To think back then,

that we'd be here today,

and you've got businesses in your hands

and ambitions for a bright future

for you and your family.

I'll give you a kiss.

Now, after the mother I had,

you're the mother I'd like to have had.

This is... This is...

My special son.

I don't need many words,

because he knows it.

I live obsessed about him every day.

But he deserves it.

It's not because...

You could not be everything you are.

But I'll tell you something,

I fight for you every day.

I feel very proud to be able

to fight for you every day.

I want to do it with conviction.

You deserve it.

You're a lot more

than I could ever do for you!

It's nothing.

In terms of your value,

I could do twice what I do.

It'll never be enough

to be up to your level,

your quality,

both human and sporting qualities.

You're a monster!

This is the best in the world,

the best footballer in the world.

The best sportsman, I tell you.

And I mean it.

There's really no doubt about it.

He's the best in the world and everyone

will recognize that for sure.

All the world. No one will be

indifferent to that.

He's the best sportsman

in the world ever

and I'm proud to be standing

next to a guy like this

because it's a truly impressive thing!

Oscar! Give him an Oscar!

If I didn't know you,

I'd ask you for an autograph.

- Jorge...

- You lost your glass somewhere.

A toast to Jorge!

Jorge is the best.

Jorge. Top!

Top, top, top.

The Ballon d'Or is a day

when your heart beats faster.

You sweat more. You're more anxious,

more tired, both psychologically

and physically.

It's a very intense day.

My mother, my siblings,

I feel they were also very nervous.

Even Jorge Mendes.

Everyone who was with me.

It stays for life.

People who like me,

the family, the fans,

they never forget about it

because it's the climax

of a year's work,

of a career that started

when I was 11 years old,

playing football always

with the goal of being the best,

winning trophies, winning titles,

having a good life, making money...

Everything. It's all part

of the same package.

It's a card inside an envelope

that can change so much.

You're a chicken.

My son accompanying his dad

and seeing with his own eyes

the glories of his father,

that's unique.

He's already proud of me.

He shows off my trophies.

That makes me an even happier person.

You're a clown!

I'm the same as you.

Let me see if your hands are cold.

You're cold.

I just had a shower

to wash bad luck away from my body.

- To wash what?

- Bad luck.

Come here. Take a photo

with me and Ronaldo, please.

You need to be very well behaved

otherwise Daddy won't buy you

anything tomorrow.

Otherwise Daddy won't win.

I always do. And will you cry?

I will.

I'm always the first one to cry.

- Why are they shouting?

- Because of the players.

What did they call you

when you went outside?

Who's that guy there?

Who's that guy over there?

The one wearing a suit. Who is it?

Go on. Go on.

Are you OK? Yes?

High-five him.

What's up? Are you well?

Are you being shy now?

He's shy now.

Who's that?

He's being shy now.

- Look at that shyness!

- He can't believe it's him!

- It's Messi.

- Give Daddy a kiss.

A kiss? Why?

I'm always giving you kisses.

He can't believe it.

And why do you like playing football?

Bye. Bye.

Done.

You'll see that I'll end up

without any teeth.

Come here.

Nearly there, nearly there...

Wait!

You see?

Everything's possible.

"And he was crazy for her!"

Done!

You're the best, man! The best!

He was a child

that I wanted to abort.

God didn't want that to happen,

and I was blessed because of that,

and God did not punish me.

Sometimes Ronaldo makes fun of me

and says,

"You didn't want me to be born."

"But now you see

that I'm here helping all of you."

And, well, sometimes,

we have a laugh about that.

It's like a family relationship.

And after that, I'm passionate

about his game,

about the way he plays,

the way he dedicates himself.

I see Cristiano like a son,

like a real son.

I've lived life's sorrows,

so did Ronaldo,

and life took a turn.

It's been a journey.

Life can really turn around.

The world is round.

He's our protector

and he always helped us

and everything we have today

we owe to him.

He's going through

a great moment of fame.

He is, these days.

I'm enjoying it greatly.

- How does a father feel?

- He's really standing out.

The father likes it.

It's always good. I feel emotional.
