Christiano Ronaldo, generally regarded as the greatest soccer player in the world, saw his team, Portugal, fall behind at the 62nd minute when Uruguay’s Edinson Cavani scored his second goal of the game. Then, less than ten minutes later, Cavani was injured and was trying to limp off the field. While play continued, Ronaldo went to help him in an extraordinary display of sportsmanship.
The Code begins, “Because I am a role model with the opportunity and responsibility to make a difference in the lives of others…” It is important to remember that people are always watching and observing our behavior; we are all role models. Ronaldo’s act of sportsmanship was a great message to players young and old, about the importance of Winning More Than The Game!
