Cristiano Ronaldo’s 190th cap with Portugal against the Czech Republic in Prague will be remembered for a long time! Not because of his performance (he didn’t score) but rather because of an incident! In the 13th minute, on the cross of a teammate, the Portuguese striker, offside, beat the exit of the opposing goalkeeper, Tomas Vaclik. The two players unfortunately telescoped. CR7 came out of this duel, his face bloodied, his nose exploded, and almost unconscious. It took many minutes to stop the bleeding and allow the 37-year-old striker to resume the match. For those who missed the sequence, a little catch-up session:

If during this fifth match of the 5th day of the League of Nations, Cristiano did not score, his team won (4-0) against his host. A result that allows Fernando Santos’ men to take first place in the group ahead of Spain, surprised by Switzerland (1-2).Until 2024
On the occasion of the award ceremony organized a few days ago in Lisbon, Cristiano Ronaldo affirmed his wish to play at least until Euro 2024. “My journey is not over yet. You will have to support ‘Cris’ for a while yet”, he said on the occasion of the Quinas de Ouro award for the top scorer of the selections.
“I want to be present at the 2022 World Cup and at Euro 2024 (…) I feel very motivated. My ambition is great”. The star does not intend to hang up the cleats right away…
