Preface
Cristiano Ronaldo cried, the 39-year-old veteran who has been galloping on the pitch for many years, lost control of his emotions. Although he has had the label of "crying nose" since he was young......
But as his last European Cup, he was close to the goal many times, but fortunately, in the end, the goalkeeper of Portugal saved three penalties in a row and successfully saved the "about to break" Ronaldo!
Cristiano Ronaldo is emotionally out of control
Ronaldo has the title of "the all-time goalscorer king of the European Cup", which of course has a little obsession with scoring goals, but the previous 3 group games must have been a blow to him, after all, there was no result.
From then to now facing Slovenia, Ronaldo knows exactly how much pressure he has on his shoulders. If you don't score again, not only your own face, but also whether the team can advance smoothly is a matter of great risk.
In this game, Ronaldo still appeared as a starter, from the beginning of the statement, Ronaldo has been looking for opportunities to shoot, after all, scoring early is also a safer choice.
But things still didn't go the way Ronaldo had envisioned. In the whole game, Portugal had 14 shots on goal and 6 shots on target, if you compare this data with Slovenia, Portugal still has an advantage, but in this case, Portugal still did not score.

If you want to put it on hold, forget about 0-0, this time it's still a knockout. And in extra time, Ronaldo's penalty kick was successfully stopped by the Slovenian goalkeeper.
Seeing this scene, Ronaldo must have mixed feelings in his heart, he failed to win 4 free kicks in the whole game, and there were many mistakes in the cooperation with his teammates. There were also penalties missed...... This kind of sum up, Ronaldo couldn't bear it at all, and directly shed tears on the scene.
When teammates saw Ronaldo like this, they also hurried up to comfort him. And Ronaldo's mother, who was sitting in the stands watching the game, must be uncomfortable when she sees her son like this, right?
But fortunately, Ronaldo still completed his "redemption" on the field. In the penalty shootout, Ronaldo still chose to be the first to play very bravely, and also successfully scored the ball!

This kick can be regarded as helping the team to successfully establish a victory, although it was thrilling, but it also passed in the end. After the game, of course, the media will not let go of this good opportunity to interview, as soon as they ask about emotional out-of-control.
Cristiano Ronaldo said bluntly that even the strongest people can have such moments, and he was very disappointed and sad at the time, after all, this ball is extremely important to the whole team.
When asked about the upcoming "Portuguese and French match", Ronaldo affirmed that he will do his best in this shirt and will never give up, and there is no doubt that this will be his last European Cup.
The Portuguese team, in addition to the "eye-catching" Ronaldo as always, there is another one who can be called the "secret weapon" of their team, that is, the goalkeeper Diogo Costa!

Portugal's "secret weapon" door god
In the 90 minutes of this game, the Portuguese team and Slovenia both handed in a "blank sheet". In extra time, there was still no goal.
This penalty shootout is also extraordinary, but for the first time in this European Championship, the fans of both sides are also very emotionally divided. Believing that Costa exists, they must be very reassured.

In fact, before the start of this penalty shootout, Costa was still "criticized". Back in March this year, Costa misjudged the direction of the opponent's shot four times in the penalty shootout, which directly led to Porto's complete failure to qualify for the top 8.
And this time, it was a penalty shoot-out, and Costa took the opportunity well. When Slovenia took the first penalty to take the field, Costa was ready for "battle mode" and watched the ball fly towards the bottom right corner, and Costa made a pounce to successfully block the ball.
Seeing this result is really a great encouragement for Ronaldo. A shot on goal put Portugal in the lead. In the second round, the opposite side chose the left side, and Costa judged it to be successful and blocked the ball again.
In the third round, again! Costa made history! In the penalty shootout of the European Championship before, there was no goalkeeper who could save the opponent's shot three times in a row, and he was the first!
During the interview, Costa also burst into tears of emotion, and he finally did it and made the best contribution for his team. Even the coach of the Portuguese team, Martinez, was impressed by his performance and was proud of Costa!
But for the Portuguese team, the "fierce battle" is still not over, after all, it is the French team that will face next. This team is really a bit "metaphysical" on its body, especially with the oolong ball, and the fate is also quite deep.
The Franco-Portuguese war is about to take place
Looking back at the past history, since the end of the last century, when France was able to successfully advance to the final four of such a major competition, there were basically two results, one was to win the championship and the other was to lose to the champion.
In their team, there is still some strength in them, but in this European Cup, they seem to lack some convincing power for fans
In the quarterfinals, France met Belgium, and both sides were in a blank sheet, but an own goal allowed France to score and enter the next round.

If you watch the game, you also know that up to now, the French team has actually scored 3 goals, but 2 of them are own goals. Even Chiellini joked in an interview that the best striker in France is an own goal.
Although the process was not very good, the result should be quite satisfactory for the French. In the face of this situation, Deschamps also accepted it quite naturally.
He said that even if people take it for granted to reach the quarterfinals, they should enjoy the moment, after all, it is not something that can be done casually......
epilogue
To a certain extent, if Ronaldo can successfully continue his championship dream, it is also thanks to the protection of the goalkeeper of the Portuguese team. But this battle can really be described as "gods".
As for whether Ronaldo can make history again in his last European Cup, it depends on the next big battle with France!
