Opinion makers and also VIP friends of Christian Ronaldo are divided on his account, commenting on the fact that he has dominated the spotlight in these hours, following Portugal’s victory against Slovenia, last night on penalties. The absolute protagonist was Diogo Costa, goalkeeper of Porto and Roberto Martinez’s national team, who saved 3 penalties in the final lottery after saving his team at the end of the match with a miracle on Benjamin Sesko. CR7 however still took center stage, for better or for worse: first he missed a penalty in extra time, then he made up for it by scoring the second of the 3 final penalties.
Significant were the tears shed by the attacker at the end of the 120 minutes, after Cloud had stopped his shot from 11 meters: not even his teammates were able to console him, even if the former Juve player then found his smile again. And the Irish boxing legend, Conor McGregorshared from his Instagram profile a picture of Cristiano in tears, writing an eloquent phrase towards his friend: “True passion for your country! Cristiano Ronaldo, you are the best footballer who has ever walked the Earth. God bless you, brother. The past is glory, the present is history!”.
