Ronaldo n’a pu contenir son émotion. MAXPPP – Martin Rickett

La légende portugaise Cristiano Ronaldo n’a pu contenir ses larmes avec ses coéquipiers autour de lui, quelques instants après avoir manqué un penalty lors des prolongations du huitième de finale du Portugal contre la Slovénie, lundi 1er juillet à l’Euro 2024.

Whether we like this player or not, we must admit that the scene is quite sad. While Cristiano Ronaldo had a golden opportunity to give Portugal the advantage during extra time of their round of 16 match against Slovenia at Euro 2024, Jan Oblak prevented him.< /p>

Following a Slovak foul in the area on Liverpool player Diogo Jota, the referee of the match Mr. Orsato whistled a logical penalty in favor of the Portuguese.

Comforted by his teammates

But the six-time Ballon d’Or saw his attempt stopped by the Atlético de Madrid goalkeeper thanks to a beautiful save, horizontally, on his left.
