You know how you can tell when a player is truly a mega-star? When a stadium fills just to see his introductory press conference.
Cristiano Ronaldo was unveiled at the Bernabeu on Monday in front of a crowd of more than 60,000 fans (with some reports putting the figure as 80,000). Wearing the Real Madrid uniform, and the number nine shirt, Ronaldo went through the usual introductory fanfare, and even addressed the crowd in Spanish.
It is a scene that needs to be seen to be believed:

Impressed by the scene? What do you think of Cristiano Ronaldo joining Real Madrid? Do you see him leading Real Madrid to championships? Do you see the new ‘Galacticos’ struggling like the old ‘Galacticos’?
