"I hope that Cris, my son, can be like his dad. He says he is going to be better (than me), but I think it's difficult," the 34-year-old said. "I am very happy to have scored, for him too. He is playing for Juventus and adapting really well, it has been easier for him than for me," Ronaldo proudly remarked.
