I mean, this is just forced. Ronaldo definitely wasnโt the problem, Portugal just bemusingly refused play with any intent whatsoever after the goal.
If anything, this game is actually one where Ronaldo could do well.
Cristiano Ronaldo in the first half:
0 goals
0 assists
0 shots
0 shots on target
0 chances created
0 big chances created
0 successful take-ons
0 fouls won
0 duels won
Despite Portugal having 80% possession.
