🥹 Gerson Rodrigues’ heartfelt post on IG: “From a human to an extraterrestrial: I faced you 7 times, Cristiano Ronaldo. Seven times I looked across the pitch and saw something that wasn’t human. You moved like an extraterrestrial, a being of pure intention and unstoppable power. You don’t belong to this world. Every collision with you taught me what’s possible when you transcend human limits. But here’s what breaks my heart: an extraterrestrial who put Portugal on the map, who made the world know our flag, who was the heartbeat of our nation — your country should respect you differently, even as the end draws near. You deserve that honor. When I tell people I’m from Portugal, they ask about Ronaldo. And now? It hurts. Because you were more than a player. You were Portugal’s voice to the world. That’s what saddens me most.”
