From a Portuguese
Ronaldo is 1,86m not 185, 185 is his height at low he is around 186 normally, because we all shrink during the day. And, his hair was black actually when he was young, look at his photos when he was 12, 13… and now its brown…, his hair just looks black now cuz its wet, but its dark brown. And dark brown eyes?? look at him next to his son bpretty light compared to his sons real dark brown… he has middle brown eyes. So this is correct actually and youre the one not being right AT ALL… messi is only 168cm not 170 or 169cm. Max 169cm
