At the Beijing media meeting, Ronaldo said he was very happy to come to Beijing for the second time and meet the fans who love him, according to CGTN's Sport Scene.
When asked about his free kick against Spain at the World Cup, with which he tied the game 3-3 and secured a hattrick, CR7 said he was always confident on the field.
Ronaldo also visited a primary school in Beijing's Haidian District, where he played with about 60 students.
