After Ronaldo missed a penalty many people shouted that Ronaldo is not a good player, although we all know that Ronaldo is getting old when it comes to penalty play Ronaldo is the best, no player can not miss a penalty,
The hate will always be there and it seems as if people immediately forget what he has done in football and still doing. Why do people make a fuss about a penalty missed, people miss penalties everday but they don’t criticize them but when it’s Ronaldo it’s easy to say he is not a good player. Missing aa penalty doesn’t justify anything it just not his day and that’s how it was meant to be.
It was sad that Ronaldo missed the penalty, but what do you think about Pepe's mistake in extra time? If Sesko had shot the ball a little better, it would have been a goal, but Costa saved the ball there too. In my opinion, Costa played one of his career matches last night. I saw players who gave everything for Portugal and played with heart. I hope they have good luck against France.
Pepe’s mistake almost cost them everything but thank goodness the goalkeeper saved it else we would be seeing different headlines about how Ronaldo made Portugal lose because of the penalty. Mistakes are bound to happen and it can happen to anyone but i am hearing people saying Ronaldo and Pepe shouldn’t be included in the squad they are old, these are people that gives everything for their country and other players are learning from them.
Maybe the coach could have done a good thing by taking them when the game was extended to 120 minutes. Pepe is now very old and has difficulty keeping up with that tempo. He's not ready to play 120 minutes. I can't say the same for Ronaldo, but I think Ronaldo could last 120 minutes, he can last one more match. Also, Jan Oblak saved Ronaldo's penalty, but Ronaldo did not kick the penalty. That's why I think it remains an unfortunate moment. I think Ronaldo is a legend who should be on the field.
