[Diego Nasser · Rating 5 out of 5]

Well I would give this book a 3.5 star rating because I think it was a little bit the same as the Lionel Messi one because it shows you the same lessons in this one but the matches are different so that is why I will put this star rating a 3.5 because I liked the matches just the thing why I didn't put it a 5 is because what I said before that the lessons are the same and so that was the part that that I didn't like about this book but in resume it was fun and all just it is a little bit the same to the one of Lionel Messi. The major questions or plot raised by this book is the matches and how he thought in every match that he will win because the book said that every time Ronaldo was losing in a match he thought positive and won so that is something raised by the book. One internal struggle that Cristiano Ronaldo had that relates to me is that he gets angry when he loses a match and that is what we and Ronaldo need to improve because losing is the way to win so when I lose I am just learning so that is the internal struggle that I wanted to include. Well this book relates to my hero's journey because I love soccer and I started playing when I was a little kid like Ronaldo and it relates because of all the problems that Ronaldo have in matches it relates because it is the same with me I get angry and another thing why it relates it is the way Cristiano Ronaldo thinks because when I am in a match and we are losing I think positive and it is the same thing that Ronaldo does so that is why we relate. Well this book changed me as a reader because now I know how to read faster and now I know how to relate me more with every book another thing is that now I know how to get into the book like it happens to me that I just read and read but I am not putting attention and so this book showed me how to get into the picture that the book is trying to explain and how to understand more the sentences that every book that I read is telling so that I is the things that changed me when I read this book. Well I would recommend this book to the people that loves the sport of football and one of that people is my friend Chaly because he always plays with me and he also has a blast when he plays football and also because we are in the same team so the type of persons that I would recommend is the type of persons like my friend because the book is about football and also how to lead a team of football in real life.
