Portugal stayed at 1-1 with Congo in its premiere at the 2026 World Cup and has reopened the debate on Cristiano Ronaldo's performance.
CR-7 did not score for the 10th Portugal national game in World Cup and Euro with his coach, Roberto Martinez stating: It made no sense to make a change to Cristiano Ronaldo who is the top scorer in history, since we were chasing goals.".
Thierry Henri, who's commenting on FOX, the World Cup after saying he didn't like Portugal, put them on Ronaldo. "The important thing is for the team to score, not you," said the French world champion.
