In an interview with Piers Morgan, Ronaldo burst into tears when looking back at the rare film about his father, saying:
“I really don’t understand everything about my father, he is always drunk and it is not easy to have a normal conversation between father and son.”
…
Ronaldo’s father was a soldier, participating in the war in Angola to prevent local rebels from breaking out in conflict or escorting food trucks through bomb-filled roads.
Living conditions at that time were appalling, with soldiers starving and food supplies uncertain. Sickness and hunger always surrounded the men in the concentration camp, they were confined to their beds with every chill of malaria.
Mr. Aveiro, naturally affected by this, was no longer a healthy man, his haggard appearance was clearly visible when he returned to his family after the war.
Even after the war ended, maintaining a peaceful day-to-day life was really difficult for Aveiro and his former teammates.
Jose Manuel Coelho, a person who went through the war alongside Aveiro, shared with ESPN: “They have no jobs, no money to be able to buy food to survive, it’s too harsh, many people turn to alcohol to forget boredom and Aveiro is that person.”
“Not only that, Aveiro’s friends also bought him alcohol, he did not live properly, did not eat enough regularly.”

Ronaldo was with his father at that time, and promised that he would become one of the best players in the world.

It is a fact that, Mr. Aveiro has never doubted his son’s ability, that CR7 will become a world football superstar.
A friend of Mr. Aveiro said: “Every time he meets us, Dinis insists that one day Ronaldo will become the best player in the world. At that time, everyone thought this was a myth and laughed. As for Dinis, he never thought it was a joke.”
When CR7 was having a budding career at MU, Mr. Aveiro became more and more withdrawn, and did not want to let anyone know about his life or health situation. He did not want his son to neglect training because of him. training.
Now that Cristiano Ronaldo has become one of the best stars in the world, Mr. Aveiro has passed away without being able to witness the successes and titles that his son has achieved, but on the other side of the world. world, perhaps he can always be proud that his only son is at the top just like what he predicted during his lifetime.
