CRISTIANO RONALDO broke down in tears after missing a penalty in extra time during the incredible moments at Euro 2024.
Mom In the spectators, Maria Dolores dos Santos Aveiro was upset following Jan Oblak’s outstanding save of Ron’s spot-kick during Portugal’s thrilling semifinal match against Slovenia.
Following his pain during extra time, Cristiano Ronaldo was distraught, and Dalot was available right away.
Ronaldo’s mother Even Maria Dolores dos Santos Aveiro broke down in tears.
Ron’s penalty was stunningly saved by Jan Oblak.
Among the players cheering for Ronaldo was Bruno Fernandes.
Then, Ronaldo collected himself to score a penalty in the shootout.
When he tucked in his shootout spot-kick, he seemed to apologise to the Portuguese supporters for his previous error.
However, when the match ended in a shootout, the legendary Manchester United player received a thrilling twist.
After a goalless draw, Ron not only scored but also expressed regret to the Portuguese supporters as his team won 3-0 and advanced to the quarterfinals on penalties.
But in the 105th minute, when Oblak dived full length to push away Ron’s thunderous penalty, everything had been so different.
Initially, the 39-year-old striker simply put his head in his hands and continued.
But a few seconds later, his emotions exploded as the first half-hour of the extra half-hour ended.
Ron’s emotions seemed to be coming out of control, and his teammates sought to comfort him.
“He’s an emotional guy – he wants to score more than anything else,” Al-Nassr star Jose Fonte, a member of the team that won the Euro 2016 championship, told the BBC. That will cause him pain.
His mother also appeared to be crying as the cameras panted to the stands.
In a heated altercation, Ronaldo expressed his feelings.
Friends rallied quickly to support one another.
Arriving at the match, Ronaldo was on a career-worst seven-game run without a goal in international competitions.
And Ron had very few opportunities in normal time to break that duck as Portugal battled Slovenia’s excellent defence.
Then his extra-time nightmare appeared from the spot.
However, when the match got to penalties, Ronaldo demonstrated his mental toughness.
His spot-kick was horribly wrong, crashing into the opposing corner.
And instead of rejoicing, he put his hands together in the Frankfurt Arena as a sign of regret to the fans of his nation.
Slovenia crumbled from the spot in the shootout, with Portugal winning handily.
However, the previous match’s drama stemmed more from the feelings of a renowned player than from his subpar team’s play.
