Real Madrid forward, Cristiano Ronaldo has insisted that people criticize him because he is successful.
The Portugal captain was whistled by some supporters at the Santiago Bernabeu on Wednesday, after missing a penalty against Real Sociedad.
Ronaldo, who grabbed a brace in the game as Los Blancos won 3-1, says he is not disturbed by all the talk and is interested in doing his job well.
“There are people out there who hate me and who say I’m arrogant, vain and whatever. That’s all part of my success. I am made to be the best,” Ronaldo told Mundo Deportivo.
“We cannot live being obsessed with what other people think about us. It’s impossible to live like that. Not even God managed to please the entire world.
“I have a clear conscience. I sleep well. I feel good helping others, regardless of whether that’s with big things or small things. I look at life differently ever since I became a father.
“I can deal with the pressure because of the difficult life I have had. The person I am now is the result of the time I spent without my family and because of the difficult times I went through.
“I was ironing my own clothes when I was 11 years old. My mental strength goes back to those days.
