The Aceh Tsunami in 2004 left a deep wound for the country. However, behind the tragedy, Martunis' name emerged to the international world after becoming a survivor who caught the attention of Cristiano Ronaldo. The Portuguese star player then adopted Martunis as his adopted son.
As Ronaldo's adopted son, Martunis got a golden opportunity to pursue his dream in the world of football. Ronaldo put Martunis in the Sporting Lisbon academy, a historic club where Ronaldo also started his professional career. This opportunity should be a big start for Martunis to follow in his adopted father's footsteps.
However, Martunis' journey at Sporting Lisbon did not go as expected, because he lost the competition there. Now, Martunis lives his life by playing at the local level, including inter-village tournaments or tarkam. What is his portrait like when playing tarkam? Here is a summary from Instagram @martunis_ronaldo, Wednesday (11/20).
