SEAToday.com, Germany - Cristiano Ronaldo confirmed that UEFA Euro 2024 will be his final European Championship appearance. This tournament marks a record-breaking sixth appearance for Ronaldo in the prestigious competition.
"Without a doubt it's the last Euro (for me), of course it is," Ronaldo told Portugal's TV channel RTP on Tuesday (7/2).
This announcement comes after the emotional rollercoaster Ronaldo experienced recently. He broke down in tears after his 114th-minute penalty was saved by Slovenia's goalkeeper Jan Oblak. Despite the missed penalty, Portugal won in the round-of-16 game, defeating Slovenia 3-0 in a penalty shootout.
Having made his debut with Portugal in 2003 and securing the championship title in 2016, Ronaldo remains the men's all-time leading scorer in international football with 130 goals.
Thank you for the incredible performances you've delivered throughout the Euros, Ronaldo!
