Following Portugal’s exit from the Euro tournament, Miguel Delaney, a journalist for The Independent, took to social media to express his amazement at the unprecedented narrative surrounding Cristiano Ronaldo during the competition.
Delaney wrote, “To be honest, I really can’t think of a precedent in football where a manager has been so relentless in sticking with a star player, regardless.”
“Ronaldo is perhaps the most recognizable footballer in history, which might make this instance of tactical subservience to reputation unparalleled,” he added.
“Not only did the Portugal coach persist with Ronaldo, but he also gave him the most minutes played in the entire tournament.”
