How Cristiano Ronaldo Taught the World About HODLing On
HODLing has been a huge part of Cristiano's career since he stepped onto the professional pitch. From day one, he has shown that it means facing challenges and pressures beyond what this short video can convey.
Nerves of Steel
It's not every day you get the chance to stand the pressure of scoring from the penalty spot to secure a prestigious European victory for your team. But for Cristiano, the strategy is clear: stay calm and HODL On.
Cristiano scored the winning goal to help his club win the European Championship again in 2016 against a top Spanish side. The pressure was immense and everything was on the line, but he stepped up with nerves of steel. The moment demonstrated his ability to stay calm and focused under pressure, and deliver when it mattered most.
Turn the tide
Even when he was on the verge of defeat, Cristiano’s HODL On mentality helped him turn the game around against Hungary in just 12 minutes with two amazing goals in 2016. His team was almost eliminated, but his resilience and talent kept them in the tournament, eventually leading to European victory. Cristiano’s never-give-up mentality was evident to the world.
The Psychology of a G.O.A.T.
Another game, another chance to shine in the most important moments. With the score at 0-0 in the 90th minute, Cristiano did not let the pressure shake his confidence. Keeping his cool, he scored a header in extra time to win the Copa del Rey in 2011. It just goes to show that there is still a lot to come and we have yet to see it all.
