Cristiano Ronaldo has enjoyed a remarkable career and once landed a £400 payday after winning a bet with legendary Mnchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson
Cristiano Ronaldo once cost Sir Alex Ferguson £400 after the Manchester United boss bet the then-youngster he wouldn't score 15 goals in a season.
He said: "To beat the manager is my ambition and I want to carry on. I want to score more goals." He added another goal and an assist during United's emphatic 4-0 victory over Watford. The anticipated 15th goal was eventually secured through a penalty in another 4-0 game, this time defeating Tottenham.
Ferguson also added some criticism to make sure the then-young winger's feet were firmly on the ground. He said: "I thought he played in the early parts of the match he was careless but once he got more of the ball and I think he improved because he had more of the ball.
