Having scored in the match against Celta Vigo the 20th and 2st1 goals this season that has dedicated to Portugal legend Eusebio, Cristiano Ronaldo announced that he will attend the Ballon d’Or awarding gala, scheduled on January 13 in Zurich, Switzerland.
“I will go to the gala. I not know if I’ll win. Naturally I will be happy if that happens and if not, I will continue to give everything for Real Madrid,” Ronaldo said after the match with Celta Vigo, won 3-0 by Galacticos.
The Portuguese footballer fight with Leo Messi and Franck Ribery for the trophy that will be awarded next week and was going to boycott the gala after the scandal with FIFA president Sepp Blatter.
Although Blatter announced in December last year that the Real players will attend at the gala on January 13, Ronaldo has confirmed his presence only at the end of the match with Celta. Only the intervention of Real officials made the Portuguese to change his mind.
If this season Ronaldo reached the goalswith number 20 and 21, in his entire career, also in this match, CR7 reached an incredible figure – in the match of this round of Primera Division, Ronaldo scored the goal with number 400 in career and seems that has much to add, taking into account the Portuguese star good form, and his age (28 years old).
