Portugal's national team faced a heart-wrenching exit from Euro 2024 after losing in a penalty shootout to France. Despite Cristiano Ronaldo successfully converting his spot-kick, Portugal was eliminated with a 5-3 margin. The match saw Ronaldo touch the ball only 40 times over 120 minutes, with minimal impact in the attacking third.
Following the loss, Ronaldo's partner, Georgina Rodriguez, took to social media to express her support. She wrote, "What beautiful emotions we have experienced this Euro Cup ❤️ Thank you for always @portugal ⭐️❤️."
The defeat has sparked speculation about Ronaldo's future with the national team. However, Portugal's head coach, Roberto Martinez, stated that the 39-year-old forward has not yet made a definitive decision regarding his international career.
Ronaldo is expected to take a break after a demanding season with Al-Nassr and Portugal. Despite recent speculation, Ronaldo had previously expressed his intention to compete in the 2026 World Cup, highlighting his continued passion for football.
