Portugal 2-1 Netherlands - EURO 2012 - Cristiano Ronaldo's Double - Full HD 

Sad to see him get older

it's about the team work and the trust between the players and the coach that is why we couldn't see ronaldo we used to see🥲

he will come back, hes in top shape for his age. theres just too much noise all around ... sad that portugal didn´t make it into the final, they had a very good chance this time around.

Second goal was offside lol

@@marroquiii it's not bro lol

No one gave him credit? Cristiano 2012 version is beast

@@diegotzemagalhaes3227 trust me. If you follow portuguese tv commentators, it's as if ronaldo did nothing special...all the praise was to Moutinho, Pede and a couple of other players. There was always a big need from some tv commentators in Portugal to devalue his achievements.

Messi did good game against Netherlands too and against previous World Cup champions France too and won the World Cup. Respect both.

Same goes for me

@@mr.miscellaneous8442 you played the euro ?

@@grandmaster6215 according to him yes

What a beast, what a man, what a father. A living example!

Is there any Player which Played since euro 04 until nowadays?

Yeah, by far the second best player in the world during that period.

​@@it_is_electron First tbh he fked up big teams unlike Messi in 2012

In 2023 Ronaldo is still top 2 nobody is better then messi and Ronaldo

@@crazygamingyt7245 Meh, I like ronaldo but it's time to face reality he's old now and not in the top anymore. Still good for his age tho

​@@it_is_electronnah Messi is second best ..

Messi played 2 world cup finals, argentina played his last WC final in 1990, after that, argentina never pass through quarter finals, this win over her was useless, he didn't even reach the final of euro.

The peak of his career is 2016 UCL + EURO

@@ilhamakabar nah he wasn’t at his best at the euros Nani was better than him that tournament but the ucl for sure

@@edwyngottaamador6103 lol cap

@@edwyngottaamador6103 Nani was never better! Equal at best. Ronaldo saved our asses against Hungary and got us through against Wales. Ronaldo made 3 goals and 3 assists in the tournament. Those are the facts!

@@edwyngottaamador6103 Bro are you drunk or secret messifanboy? You cant be serious. If Nani played better than Ronaldo they would struggle on groupstage. Nani missed a lot big chance as Ronaldo. It was Ronaldo amazing Performance vs hungary and the new EURO RULE that saved Portugal from a shame. In OF vs Croatia it was great build up of Cristiano, Quaresma and Renato Sanches to go to the next stage

Their defence was terrible , do yk anything about football?

Actually this was the worst dutch side in history on tournament level with 3 loses in 3 games

@@EKoranjeWK Look at the group clashes. This Germany would be world champions for the next 2 years. Portugal had the best player in the world, who the following year would win the Golden Ball. Denmark gave everyone a lot of work. Look at this Dutch team, in the 2014 World Cup they would be 3rd place crushing Brazil.

@@EKoranjeWK Oh, remembering, this Dutch team was runner-up in the 2010 World Cup.

@@leandroherzer i am dutch, the team in 2012 was like the team of france in 2010 wc . France almost won in 2006, then 2010 they crumbled with loses against south africa for example. We the netherlands were the same. No team chemistry in 2012. We have a documentary(dutch) about it how it went from top to flop. And since you dont know the results of the dutch before this 2012 tournament: we lost all our preperation games even against bulgaria in our own home and lost to germany 3-0. So when the tournament started it was an already dieing dutch side. When we faced portugal we needed to win with 2 goal difference, so the spaces were huge while portugal could lay back. This dutch side is an insult to us. The 2014 team is totally diffirent but for 3 players, robben van persie and sneijder were the only ones that returned and they are the best we had. Portugal was brilliant that tournament, i hoped they won it in 2012 with good football, too bad the ugliest performance in 2016 got rewarded instead. But this dutch team was not good. Im just correcting you from saying we were great that year. We were horrible

I prefer the game against Sweden but this one is close

@@Precurser66 We’ll only say Sweden simply because it got them to the World Cup (it’s around that time people finally start appreciating his performances for the NT),

@@Precurser66 that one was absolutely epic

Sadly he was nowhere to be found against Spain in the quarter-final, and Spain didn't even play that great really. EDIT I mean semi-final. I forgot there was no last 16 then yet.

@@it_is_electron Ikr, it wasn't his best game

Ele vai voltar, eu acredito🙏🏽🇵🇹💪🏽🐐

Cristiano está passando também por alguns problemas pessoais!! Porém tem gente por aí que só sabe falar e escrever bosta!!

Eu sei dereito🙁

Yup

2006 was his chance.

Benzema literally played for CR7, he gave his goalscoring side for playing with Ronaldo. Look at him now, without CR7 he can be who he really is, a complete 9 who scores a lot of goals.

@@XdXd-uv8ss that's the biggest myth in football history benzema was just a shit finisher in 2013-2018

@@XdXd-uv8ss Madridista here and whatever you are saying is not true except for the later part. Benzema was a weak link in our 3 peat squad. There were times when fans were dubious about him. Great he actually redeemed himself in last few seasons.

@@lolimop yaa he really missed some huge sitters but also scored some of the hardest finishes in that period. Soo i dont think he was should be called a shit finisher.

@@XdXd-uv8ss his finishing improved way lately, everyone creates chances in the play. Its just now when Benzema is performing in God level.

this portugal team was so shit a part from cr7

Messi solos

Yes.

Would destroy every team

Would destroy Argentina 4-0

That's not gonna be fair for other teams 😂🔥🔥

Cada dos años jajaja, después dicen que porque se le exigía más a Messi ganar algo con su selección qué a CR7 si prácticamente Messi en 4 años tenía tres competiciones 2 copas y un mundial, mientras que CR7 una copa cada 4 años y el mundial es absurdo decir que CR7 debía ganar sí o sí algo con su selección cuando Portugal siempre estuvo en el puesto 6 de ganar dicho torneos o nisiquiera era favorita por eso es muy importante y emotiva su eurocopa. Mientras que argentina fue favorita o fue la segunda favorita siempre siempre.

@@medinapaquiluismario7029 Creer que un equipo con Garay, Demichelis, Romero o Zabaleta de titulares fuera Top2 de favoritos en un mundial es estar mal de la cabeza. O bueno, quizá al estar el mejor jugador del mundo como Messi hace distorsionar la visión de quienes piensen eso, es decir, inconscientemente aceptan la realidad, que es que Messi como JUGADOR fue el mejor en ese tiempo y por eso tanta exigencia para él, nada de quedar en fase de grupos ante equipos de Africa o CentroAmérica.

Este era un partido de grupos (de 3), no era importante, o si pero no muy importante. Importante los cuartos o semis o hasta la final.

Netherlands no son chicos ahora? Lol

@@memysurname7521 nunca fueron chicos xd siempre tenían equipo

Only real fans will know this. He was so clutch. winning 7 games in a row dosen't make you the goat. Having a never die attitude and being consistent for 20 years at the top in my opinion makes someone the greatest of all time. Let's talk champions league which is every year not once every 4 years

@@tonyalves8823 him and Messi both been at the top🙌 hope Ronaldo plays euro 2024

@@howardlam6181 messi was shit against big teams in copa..he was a garbage against brazil,and dont ever compare copa and euro🤣🤣

Aged bad

A mi parecer los mundiales de los años 2000 fueron decepcionantes. De los que he visto, el 98 y el 2014 me parecieron los mejores, el 2018 en tercer lugar. De las Euros, la que más disfruté es la del 2008. La Champions nunca decepciona. En Sudamérica, creo que las mejores copas Libertadores se dieron en los 90s. En los 2000 igual hubieron buenas copas, pero entre 2013 y 2015 hubo cierto bajón.

@@KilapnF I agree with you.

the 2006 world cup was fking amazing zidane last run and figo and ronaldo together while u had germany renovation around guys like schweinsteiger and italy winning out of nowhere and it was the last great tournament before spains dominance it was also the last world cup where brazil were considered a threat

@@codino97 amazing summary. Totally on point 👌
