PORTUGAL-SLOVENIA: CRISTIANO RONALDO’S TEARS, COLLAPSED AFTER HIS MISSED PENALTY

Cristiano Ronaldo appeared in great distress after missing his penalty in extra time against Slovenia on Monday in the round of 16 of the Euro (0-0, 3 pens to 0).

Cristiano Ronaldo has cracked the armour. After missing his penalty against Jan Oblak, this Monday during the eighth-final of the Euro between Portugal and Slovenia (0-0, 3 pen. to 0), the five-time Ballon d’Or winner cracked nervously.

Inconsolable

At half-time in extra time, moments after seeing the Slovenian goalkeeper deflect his penalty, the Al-Nassr striker burst into tears. When the end was changed, he was inconsolable on the sidelines. Several Seleçao players, such as Diogo Dalot, had to comfort him. In the stands, his mother also appeared in tears.

By missing this penalty, CR7 (211 caps, 130 goals) missed the opportunity to become the oldest goalscorer in the history of the Euro . Especially, for what could be his very last international competition with Portugal. he could have been the hero of an entire country by allowing his team to avoid the penalty shootout.

Cristiano Ronaldo, however, made up for it by successfully making his attempt during this famous penalty shootout. As the first shooter, he did not hesitate and placed his ball perfectly in Oblak’s side net.
