After Portugal ended their European Championship journey, Miguel Delaney, a reporter for the UK’s Independent, took to social media to marvel at the unique story Ronaldo wrote during this tournament.
Miguel Delaney wrote: “Honestly, I don’t think anything like this has ever happened in football before, a coach so desperately clinging on to using a star player.”
“Ronaldo is perhaps the most famous player in football history, so maybe this is also taking the bending of team selection to fame to an unprecedented level.”
“And the Portugal coach didn’t just use Ronaldo, but he gave him the most playing time in the tournament.”
