Athletistic / Football. Famous football coach Timur Gurtskaya spoke about the performance of Portugal national team captain Cristiano Ronaldo at Euro 2024. He criticized the five-time Ballon d’Or winner for his actions in the 1/8 finals of the tournament against Slovenia (0:0, 3:0 on penalties).
“It was not at all necessary to put Ronaldo in the line-up for the match against Slovenia. The person has a biological age, and now he can no longer do it, his nerves are already broken! long on the bench, for the second tournament in a row.
I don’t feel sorry for the Portuguese at all, I only felt sorry for two people: Bruno Fernandes and Bernardo Silva. Whatever they do: they grant him the transfer, but this laughing stock has lost everything. It would be nice if there was a joke on the pitch, but there is a second one – I’m talking about Pepe.
Portugal’s chance to overtake the French is to put Pepe and Ronaldo on the bench. The only way! If Mbappe sees Pepe on the pitch, then Kylian will play with his eyes closed in order to equalize the chances,” Gurtskaya said in the next episode of the show on the YouTube channel “It’s football, bro!”
Cristiano Ronaldo has made 4 appearances at the European Championship and has scored one assist. The 39-year-old Portuguese also scored a penalty in the penalty shootout against Slovenia.
The Portuguese national team will play against France in the quarter-finals of Euro 2024. The meeting will take place on July 5 and will start at 22:00 Moscow time.
