RONALDO LEAVES EURO | DREAM HAS NOT COME TRUE 

RONALDO LEAVES EURO | DREAM HAS NOT COME TRUE
It was a heartbreaking moment, as if youth had vanished in the blink of an eye.
This was the image that closed out the intense 120 minutes between Portugal and France in the legendary quarter-final clash.
Pepe cried his eyes out, while Ronaldo embraced his comrade, his brother-in-arms.
The embrace of a 41-year-old and a 39-year-old, both of whom had run tirelessly in the past five matches.
But in the end, they couldn't overcome the cruelty of football and the ruthlessness of time.
Ronaldo, Pepe, and Portugal are officially out of Euro 2024 at the quarter-final stage after a fateful penalty shootout with France.
Ronaldo stepped up to take the first penalty, and he scored.
But this time, Diogo Costa didn't need to be a penalty-saving superman to make up for Jean-Félix's lone miss.
France, with their ruthless pragmatism, have booked their place in the semi-finals. That heartbreaking image is truly cruel and terrifying.
So how did Ronaldo's painful farewell unfold after 120 fateful minutes at the Wolfsburg Stadion?
All will be revealed in today's video.
Ronaldo was right in the thick of it, and the question that has been on everyone's mind surrounding the Portuguese national team in recent days finally has an answer.
Despite the doubts surrounding Ronaldo after his penalty miss and lackluster performances.
Coach Roberto Martinez seemed to have placed his absolute trust in the 39-year-old superstar.
On the contrary, a conservative person like Didier de Champs suddenly had two changes in the French team.
Randal Kolo Muani and Eduardo Camavinga both started, bringing a breath of fresh air to Les Bleus.
But their performances had been unimpressive for a long time.
