On June 21, Portugal faces Turkey in a crucial Group F match of the European Cup, a battle for group leadership. Before the showdown, Turkish defender Demiral warns his teammates, emphasizing the need to be cautious against Cristiano Ronaldo.
Demir says with admiration, “He is an incredibly professional player, setting an example for every footballer. Ronaldo is in great shape; he hasn’t lost any of his skills, and he remains a lethal threat whenever he’s on the pitch. It’s remarkable that at 39, he still scores so many goals. We must be extremely careful when dealing with him on the field.”
In the 2023-24 season, Ronaldo for Riyadhalliance played in 45 matches, contributing 44 goals and 13 assists, showcasing a strong performance. Despite some skepticism about his display in the tournament opener against the Czech Republic, where Portugal won 2-1, Portugal’s upcoming clash with Turkey for group leadership holds even greater significance. Ronaldo’s ability to adjust his form will be keenly watched.
