The 1/8 finals of the European Cup are about to start, and at 3 o'clock on July 2, Beijing time, Portugal will have a fierce showdown with Slovenia. This game has attracted much attention, especially the performance of Portugal captain Cristiano Ronaldo, which has become the focus of everyone's attention. According to the statistics of the data agency 0pta, before this game, Ronaldo had already suffered a goal drought in seven major international matches for Portugal, which is not only the longest goal drought in his career in the European Championship and the World Cup, but also raises questions about his form.

The last time Cristiano Ronaldo scored in a major tournament was back in the group stage of the 2022 World Cup 3-2 Ghana. Since then, he has had a combined 19 shots in seven matches at the World Cup and the European Championships, but has never been able to get the ball into the back of the net. This embarrassing record also makes people look forward to his performance in the upcoming matches.

Looking back at Ronaldo's 7 major game goal droughts, we can see that his performance in the 2022 World Cup has fluctuated greatly. In matches against Uruguay, South Korea, Switzerland and Morocco, he was involved in Portugal's 2 goals, 1 goal, 3 goals and 1 goal, respectively. However, at Euro 2024, his performances were relatively sluggish, failing to score against the Czech Republic, Turkey and Georgia.

During this time, Ronaldo's influence on the pitch remained, but the goal luck seemed to be far away from him. Faced with such a situation, Portugal and Cristiano Ronaldo himself will undoubtedly hope to break this embarrassing record in this match against Slovenia. And fans are also looking forward to Cristiano Ronaldo getting back to scoring as soon as possible and winning more for Portugal.
