The Portuguese striker Cristiano Ronaldo encouraged young people to watch over and take care of their minds and physical fitness this Friday during his participation in a conference focused on health at the Dubai Expo, in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), where he enjoyed a massive reception .
An enthusiastic crowd cheered the Manchester United player as he made his appearance on a platform in the middle of El Wasl square, in the heart of the Expo 2020 venue.
“Health is the most important thing we have and we have to take care of it,” Cristiano said, addressing his advice especially to children, “who are the next generation.”
“I’m 37 years old and I’m still playing football,” assured the striker during a question session, putting himself as an example of someone who takes care of himself, and insisted on the need for young people to “believe in themselves” and watch how they feed so much "the body as the mind".
Cristiano Ronaldo is enjoying a short vacation in the UAE, accompanied by his wife, Georgina RodrÃguez, the star of a "docureality" premiered this week on the Netflix platform, and their four children.
Expo 2020, lasting six months and which opened its doors on October 1, summoned the athlete in the week dedicated to promoting health and well-being.
Other well-known athletes have also participated these days in the days dedicated to health at the Dubai Expo, including the former French soccer player Patrice Evra, the Irishman Robbie Keane and the Portuguese Ruben DÃas, a Manchester City player.
