Euro 2024 can be considered Cristiano Ronaldo’s last major tournament when he is 39 years old. Therefore, after winning the European championship 8 years ago, CR7 will join the Portuguese team in a new conquest, starting with the match against the Czech Republic.
Portugal won all 10 matches in the qualifying round, in which Ronaldo contributed 10 goals. Combined with scoring 50 goals in 51 matches for Al Nassr last season, it’s clear that the former MU and Real Madrid star is still prolific when it comes to finding success.
Ronaldo scored a double goal for Portugal in the latest friendly match
Having had two friendly matches off in early June, Ronaldo appeared on the field in the final warm-up against Ireland and immediately scored 2 goals. That is the best way for him to enter Euro 2024 and the Czech Republic will provide the first challenge in a group that includes both Türkiye and Georgia.
