Cristiano Ronaldo has unpleasant memories of the group stage of the EURO 2024. CR7 is searching relentlessly for his own goal to increase his scoring record in what may be his sixth and final appearance. Ronaldo hasn’t scored a goal for himself in the last three games, despite the Portuguese squad scoring five goals.
Despite coach Martinez’s several replacements during the encounter against Georgia in the last round of the group stage, Ronaldo was kept on the pitch. Still, Ronaldo did not have a really good day. During his 66 minutes on the pitch, he took three shots but was unable to score.
Notably, Ronaldo departed this game with a few negаtive impressions. Antonio Siva and Ronaldo combined to receive Felix’s cross in the twenty-first minute. Antonio Siva ultimately misdirected the ball in front of his senior. Ronaldo vented his annoyance at the centre back, who is 20 years old from Portugal. Ronaldo was given a yellow card in the 28th minute, right after that.
CR7 vented his annoyance once more in the 66th minute, following coach Roberto Martinez’s removal from the pitch. CR7 threw away a water bottle while travelling to the tricky section. The possessor of five Golden Ball titles then proceeded to express his rage while seated in the team compartment. It’s unclear if Ronaldo was upset at coach Martinez for benching him in the 66th minute or at himself for passing up chances.
With 14 goals, Ronaldo continues to hold the record for most goals scored in the EURO championships. CR7, though, is keen to improve his scoring record.
