Without football, my life is worth nothing.

There's no point in making predictions. It's not worth speculating because nothing is set in stone and things change all the time in football. Today there are opportunities that no one knows if they will come round again in the future.
Interpretation
What this quote means
The future is unpredictable, especially in football, so it’s more important to focus on current opportunities rather than speculate.
Cristiano Ronaldo emphasizes the unpredictability of life and sport, particularly in football. He suggests that making predictions is futile because circumstances can shift unexpectedly, and opportunities may arise that might not happen again. This approach encourages a focus on making the most out of present chances rather than worrying about future possibilities, which are inherently uncertain.
