What did Ronaldo do against Iceland?

The goals were absent, so the true face of Ronaldo appeared

Cristiano Ronaldo failed to overcome the bad luck he suffered with Portugal in tonight’s match, becoming one of the worst players for the Sailors team in the match.

Cristiano did not appear in the match except in a few shots in which he tried to steal the attention by scoring a goal, but goalkeeper Valdmarsson was on the lookout and blocked Ronaldo’s two headers.

In addition to Ronaldo’s two attempts, the Madeira missile did not appear in the match in an effective manner, as it was content with few movements in the final third of the field, touching the ball only 40 times throughout the 90 minutes.

Fatigue and age may be the reason behind Ronaldo’s recent fluctuation in level with Portugal, even if the player tops the list of scorers, but most of his goals in the recent period were from easy opportunities, and Ronaldo, who makes the difference for his team in his presence on the field, has disappeared, especially since he provides… Good levels with victory.

Even in tonight’s match, in the second goal for Portugal, Ronaldo tried to follow Joao Felix’s powerful shot, which was blocked by the goalkeeper. He touched the ball before it reached Ricardo Horta, who put the ball into the net, so Ronaldo was credited with assisting the goal.

But what Cristiano is currently seeking to achieve is to maintain his superiority as the top scorer, especially after the brilliance of Romelu Lukaku and Kylian Mbappe in this round, but the match did not represent a real challenge for the player after his country decided to qualify for the Euros.

The Madeira missile is impatiently awaiting the tournament in Germany to try to snatch an international title with his country before heading into retirement, although the player may plan to compete in the next World Cup to mark the end of his international journey that lasted for more than 20 years.
