Astonishing. Seeming to recover his emotions after totally breaking down mid-game! Ronaldo scored his 2nd pen and immediately thanked and acknowledged the Portuguese fans. A humble Ronaldo is something I'd never thought I'd see.
Humble? The only thing Ronaldo cares about is how Portuguese results reflect on him. He cared more about how missing a penalty would tarnish his legacy than hurt his team or his country. His personality has always been a liability, it's just when he was the best player in the world teams put up with it.
He cares about himself hence playing in a dead rubber 3rd group stage game instead of resting, just because he wants to score. Taking every free kick whatever the position and shooting on sight. He is doing it for the team and fans 🤣
The emotions is because he knows his time is ending, there is a lot more going on with Ronaldo.
Ye it's pathetic isn't it.
The Portugal team are trying to win a tournament and Ronaldo is too busy worrying about himself.
@@NeilLewis77 I am not fond of the guy, but I or you can't blame him for being human.
@@artschool673 I'm not asking for him to be a robot.
I'm asking for him to be a 40 year old leader.
I can't ever imagine a man like Pepe blubbing while there's still a game to be won.
@@NeilLewis77 Have you ever worked a job for a long period of your life and done something incredibly mundane and got emotional over the fact it's the last time you'll do that there? I have, and it was for jobs I ultimately didn't really like. He is literally living his dream and for a brief moment he was overwhelmed by the possibility of it ending. If I was playing by his side it would spur me on to make sure one of my countries biggest legends dream continues for just a bit longer. Fernandes clearly recognised the moment and if anything that display of weakness humanises Ronaldo and further signals the changing of the guard. Yes he is arrogant, but he wouldn't be one of the biggest legends of the sport if he wasn't. And no, I'm not a Ronaldo fanboy
@@Alex-lc7vAgreed.
When people hate someone, they criticise absolutely everything. It is pathetic, really.
I repeat: I do not like the guy either, but I am not going to criticise him for having emotions.
What's ridiculous is he'd probably be a lot more effective if they stuck him on when defenders are tired.
13:55 as much as I dislike Ronaldo - which is to say a lot - I can’t disagree with the opinion that his tears were “ridiculous” and “silly” more strongly.
He’s a selfish primadonna. But he’s also patriotic and proud and wants his country to win. He felt like he let his countrymen down in what could have possibly been his last match in a Portuguese uniform. Why would his teammates think that his reaction was “ridiculous”?
That might have been the most likable/relatable thing Ronaldo has ever done.
Your right there is also footage which shows it was his mother's crying that moved him to tears
Ronaldo only cares about Portugal so far as their results reflect on his own personal legacy. If he really cared about Portugal he'd play a supporting role behind their other players that are still world class. He wouldn't be carrying in like a pork chop and making it all about himself
Because he was crying as if they had lost.
Not acting like a captain who needed to drag his team through extra time.
Why was he crying as if Portugal got knocked out?
Same at last world cup, after Portugal get knocked out, the 21 year old striker walked around the pitch applauding the fans.
Ronaldo stormed off to the dressing room to cry like a kid.
He's such a fanny.
Can we take the time to acknowledge how appalling Martin Keown is as a commentator? Does he actually know the rules of the game? And does he think only former players understand football?
Ramos is garbage. Ronnie at 39 is still our best striker - if he were to stop taking all free kicks we'd have nothing to criticize
What u on. They need him
If only England had a Ronaldo.....
Best football podcast. Including the other guys.
It's good, but far from being the best....
At least he won. Unlike the flop De Bruyne
Gvardiol played with a mask too in another major tournament and he was brilliant. Not saying the mask cannot affect Mbappé, but I don't think it's the reason why he isn't delivering. All teams know how dangerous he is and they try to make it difficult for him.
In Ronaldo’s defence he did see his mum crying in the crowd which I think set him off, so I have a little bit more sympathy for him
Is that true? Or a joke?
@@ZacharyShahanno it’s true. There are clips and screenshots of her crying before Ronaldo looked at her direction
And to be fair to the rest of the team, it was no time for your captain to have a complete emotional breakdown while you still had a football match to win.
With Ronaldo it's always all about him and his mum.
How the eff do you know that he saw her?
Fantasy...
@@artschool673 Out-of-play fragments of live broadcast are projected onto the huge screens around stadiums; that's when we see fans seizing their moment of fame, cheering and waving. At one point, after the missed penalty, a middle-aged sad woman appeared for a few seconds and judging by the material of the seat, she was in a section for privileged folks. So, it's quite possible that Cristiano Ronaldo might have caught his mother's face on the screen.
Otherwise, I've seen a documentary film on Bayern Munich's 1992-93 season yesterday and Manfred Schwabl's silent stare into the void in the dressing room carries a ton more emotion than Cristiano Ronaldo's glamourised tears. Just saying.
Hahahaha - the takes on Pepe are great!! Was all that extra energy going into being a shithouser? 😂🤣
Obscure but well-received Brand New reference
Started to hate Andy. He likes his opinions too much and is no longer a journalist.
24:50; 😂 I know he feels he has to but Martinez bigging Ronaldo up so much afterwards was ridiculous! Is he for real?! The big crybaby with an emotional meltdown after missing a PK?! Has missed 33% of the penalties he's taken outside of PK shoot-outs @Euro Champs; and scored 1 goal from his last 149 FK attempts - a woeful conversion rate! POR won that match in spite of him, crazy to think he'll inexplicably end up going to the US World Cup as a 41yr old!
Ronaldo doesn't have 16 free kick atempts with Portugal in major tournaments, he's had 36!!! With only one goal against Spain in Russia's World Cup.
36 just in the Euros. It's like 1/60 if u include the WC.
He’s 1 for his last 64.
Surely you can't be serious? Why are so many journalists missing De Bruynes point? Cleary he means that the spanish, german, french national teams also have golden generations and they are all competing for the same tournaments together. Hence, its difficult for the belgian golden generation. The golden generation tag is really given to them because they havent had one before that, other teams seemingly constantly produce them.
The guy is so fake, painful to watch actually
Reminder that Eric Dier has scored the same amount of goals from direct free kicks at major international tournaments as Cristiano Ronaldo. And has taken considerably less 💀
Crocodile tears, nothing more nothing less.
bro, he just felt like he let his country down. that might as well have been portugal losing. i would definetly cry if i let my country's hopes down on a simple pk.
Why? Because he’s awful. Has been for years.
Calling him a one dimensional player - which he’s been since 2018 at least - would be a massive compliment at this point.
Describing him as a 39 year old player would be more fair imo. That would be a compliment.
Bro shut the hell up
@@Thomas...191there are no other 39 year olds.
Players are supposed to retire when their legs go at 35.
Ronaldos legs went at 35 and he's just carried on playing as if we wouldn't notice and he holds Portugal back time and time again.
@@NeilLewis77 tell that to ryan giggs, jesus navas, Zlatan, Maldin, the legendary roger millar, modric, messi... no, the list is too long, and your point is moot... just imagine messi reitring before winning the world cup. God, what a silly thing to say.
@@Thomas...191 ye giggs retired from internationals at 34.
jesus navas doesnt start and play 90 minutes for spain.
sweden had no one else so kept calling up zlatan.
maldini retired from italy age 34.
roger millar because nigeria had no one else.
modric because croatia had no one else.
messi because hes the goat and actually stopped running in his mid 20s anyway.
thats a list of old men that won nothing past the age of 34 apart from messi who happens to be the greatest player who ever lived and whos entire game has been about walking around the pitch anyways.
the idea that a man deemed to old and slow to play top european 3 years ago should retire from internationals isnt a silly thing to say.
portugal not being able to find a better striker than a 39 year old is why they have gone home already.
