A much-vaunted prodigy when snapped up by Manchester United from Sporting Lisbon in 2003, Cristiano Ronaldo is now perhaps, apart from David Beckham, the best-known player on the planet.

2003年，当克里斯蒂亚诺•罗纳尔多被曼联从里斯本竞技买走时，他还只是一个口碑不错的足坛神童。如今，C罗已经是除贝克汉姆以外，全球最知名的足球巨星。

After winning all there was to win with the Red Devils, Ronaldo earned his dream move to Real Madrid in the summer of 2009 for a world record fee of ￡80m.

在"红魔"豪取个人荣誉大满贯后，C罗在2009年夏天加盟皇家马德里，8000万英镑的转会费使其成为足坛身价第一人。

Fast and tricky, Ronaldo possesses a thunderous dipping, swerving shot and is one of the most dangerous set-piece exponents in the game.

球场上的C罗速度奇快且花样繁多，射门力道十足且路线飘忽，他还是国际足坛最令人胆寒的定位球专家。

It is time for Ronaldo to truly live up to his star billing on the world stage.

本届世界杯，C罗唯有出色的发挥才不会辜负当前的超高人气。C罗，是时候在世界舞台证明自己了！
