Fact Check. Quaresma diz que Ronaldo não é maior que o país?




Cristiano Ronaldo has apologised to Portugal supporters and his teammates for walking out of the national team camp, while insisting he remains available to represent his country once any disciplinary
The post Ronaldo apologises for Portugal walkout and says he remains available appeared first on Portugal Resident.
On December 6, 2022, hours before facing Switzerland in the last 16 of the Qatar World Cup, Portugal coach Fernando Santos summoned Cristiano Ronaldo to his room at the team hotel. “I explained to him that he would not start that night because he lacked match rhythm, and he took it badly,” the coach recalled. It was the trigger for a crisis that four years later still consumes time and energy at a federation that has failed to promote an extraordinary generation of talent without subordinating it to the contradiction of playing for a footballer who achieved greatness thanks to his dynamism but is now 41 and has long struggled to move around the field.
