Just before a pre season friendly between Everton and Real Madrid,
Ronaldo goes into the Madrid changing room to find all his teammates
looking a bit glum.
"What's up?" he asks.
"Well, we're having trouble getting motivated for this game. We know
it's important for the fans but it's only Everton. They're rubbish and
we can't be bothered".
Ronaldo looks at them and says "Well, I reckon I can beat these by
myself, you lads go down the pub."
So Ronaldo goes out to play Everton by himself and the rest of the
Madrid team go off for a few jars.
After a few pints they wonder how the game is going, so they get the
landlord to put the teletext on. A big cheer goes up as the screen
reads "Madrid 1 - Everton 0 (Ronaldo 10minutes)". He is beating Everton
all by himself!
Anyway, a few more pints later and the game is forgotten until Someone
remembers "It must be full time now, let's see how he got on". They put
the teletext on.
"Result is - "Real Madrid 1 (Ronaldo 10 minutes) - Everton
1 (Cahill 89 minutes)".
They can't believe it, he has single handedly got a draw against
Everton!! They rush back to the Stadium to congratulate him. They find
him in the dressing room, still in his gear, sat with his head in his hands.
He refuses to look at them. "I've let you down, I've let you down."
"Don't be daft, you got a draw against Everton all by yourself. And
they only scored at the very, very end!"
"No, No, I have, I've let you down... I got sent off after 12 minutes"
