In his version of “this one time, at band camp,” 2006’s footballer of the year Cristiano Ronaldo admits he almost quit soccer when he was younger because kids kept on making fun of his backwoods Portuguese accent. Cue the sad, soft violin.

As soon as I opened my mouth, they immediately started laughing and mocking. I was traumatised. I felt like a clown. I cried with shame,” he revealed.
“I called my mother saying I could not stand it, that the other kids were making fun of me and that I wanted to return home. Today, I am very proud of my accent. I find it striking.

We really can’t wait till Tevez hits him with his club during practice.
