According to him, he used to watch the trio on YouTube while growing up as a teenager.

“I learned all the tricks from the [football] legends. Ronaldinho, Neymar, Cristiano [Ronaldo]. I used to watch them on YouTube, thanks to my ‘uncle’ Toniolo,” Antony told The Players’ Tribune.

“He [Toniolo] used to let me steal his WiFi so I could go on YouTube and get my football education,” he added.
