Real Madrid's Ronaldo unconcerned over Ballon d'or
The Real Madrid forward says it will not matter to him if he does not become the world's best player this year
Mohamad Mosselhi Published in Ahram Online on 19 - 12 - 2012

Real Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo said on Wednesday it “will not be the end of the world” if he does not win this year's Ballon d'Or.
Ronaldo, who was named the world's best player in 2008, will compete with Barcelona duo Lionel Messi and Andres Iniesta for the prestigious award.
“Certainly I would love to win, but if not, it does not matter. It will not be the end of the world as life goes on,“ Ronaldo told the Portuguese football association official website.
"Fair or unfair, the decision will be what it will be. I'll maybe be very happy or maybe very sad. But that's life. I can't live according to an individual prize.
“I think that a footballer's career is marked by the collective achievements not the individual prizes”
The 27-year-old helped Real Madrid win the league title last season for the first time since 2008 to end the dominance of arch-rivals Barcelona.
