What a moment of shock in the Nations League game between the Czech Republic and Portugal!
The five-time Ballon d'Or winner is violently hit with his arm in the face during a fist defense by Czech goalkeeper Tomas Vaclik (33). After that, the world star is bleeding on the ground and needs to be treated. He looks knocked, and significantly his nose is affected. Still, the United star can ultimately carry on.
However, even after the blood shock, Ronaldo is anything but smooth. CR7 misses a mega chance when United teammate Bruno Fernandes (28) passes a strong pass back to him, but he hacks into the ground and barely catches the ball (24'). Instead, the "shot" trundles harmlessly sideways. The Portuguese captain then indicated that it was the place.
Shortly after, Portugal took the lead through Dalot (33rd) without Ronaldo participating. The next unfortunate Ronaldo scene follows a little later: Bruno Fernandes crosses again firmly to CR7, and the world striker completely misses the volley from a good position and chases the ball into the clouds (39th).
In injury time, however, things get turbulent. First, the Portuguese make it 2-0, and Fernandes scores (45+2). Then the Czech Republic got in front of the goal again from a corner (45+3), and Ronaldo rushed into the penalty area to defend the lead.
He raises his arms protectively in front of his face and blocks the ball with his arms – understandable given his facial injury. Still, according to video evidence, there are rightly penalties.
Lucky for CR7 that Patrick Schick (26) miserably missed the subsequent penalty (45 + 6). The Leverkusen striker's shot flies a meter over the goal.
In the second half, Dalot scored 3-0 (52') for Portugal, and Jota made it 4-0 (82') after a header from Ronaldo. After that, there was no more Ronaldo excitement. But there were already enough of them for several games in the first half alone...
