He may score a bazillion goals next season but he just wasted a chance by striking with the right foot instead of the left foot.
An amateurish mistake.

Yes, he makes mistakes sometimes in intense situations, like all strikers. You know what's not common among all strikers? Scoring a bazillion goals.

 

[Oersted]

Nice start

 

[BlizzKrut]

São Patricio <3

How's ESPN's coverage of the Euro? Making you wish ESPN had the Copa America and the World Cup?

 

[John Dunbar]

austria should just commit fouls outside the box whenever things get tricky because ronnie is never going to score with a free kick.

 

[Oersted]

Classic Ronaldo

 

[Lender]

Sjeez, Ronaldo sucks hard.

 

[luso]

Portugal has no striker, midfield is frustrating slow, old guys playing and a very conservative coach which does not take any chance. Whatever this Euro results are, if he stays I don't think Portugal will even reach next world cup.

 

[Empty]

sorry you aren't bale ronaldo

 

[Wind's Howling]

Wtf ever happened with Ronaldo and his beautiful free kicks.

 

[Kenzodielocke]

Ronaldo, 100 free kicks, one goal, maybe.

 

[Rad-]

He lost that skill when he left United.

 

[KHlover]

Should be called CR 0 for not scoring any free kicks in Euro/World Championships.

 

[Wind's Howling]

True that.

 

[Oersted]

Not a dig against Ronaldo (for once), but does Portugal not have any more reliable freekick takers?

Did he ever have beautiful free kicks? I think we just remember them because when one of his 1 out of 100 actually go in, it looks spectacular because of his blasting style.

Do you think Ronaldo would let anybody else do that ? It's not about skill, but pride.

Would Ronaldo tolerate a god besides himself?

Nah. Back when he played for United his free kicks were unparalleled.

 

[Unain]

Ronaldo: no goals from 35 free kicks in major tournaments. Bale: 2 goals from 3 free kicks in major tournaments.

IIRC he scored a good number of fks around 06-09 era. He also used more diverse fks back in United.

well...

 

[Oersted]

Dat Figo

well...

Same thought lol

Looks like others are only allowed when you can't score from there

 

[la_briola]

They do, but they are not named Ronaldo.

 

[KHlover]

That was actually a good finish by Ronaldo

Edit: Looks like it's not supposed to happen for Ronaldo

 

[Wind's Howling]

Damn. That kick from Ronaldo was hard.

 

[Lifejumper]

Dat keeper.

 

[Soul Lab]

being austrian is painful. they are so bad at this EM

 

[norm9]

Keeper earning his money against those Ronaldo strikes.

 

[immortal-joe]

I'm telling you, not making it out of the group. It is known.

 

[Bollocks]

omg. almer.

number 10 in the world lol

 

[Oersted]

Dat lineref*

*Was right

 

[kiguel182]

Why did the keeper decide to make the game of his life today? WHY?

We deserve a goal dammit.

 

[KHlover]

Jesus Christ what a horrible cross. Way to waste a good chance.

 

[Bri]

Yellow card? What the fuch.

 

[Oersted]

Strangest foul in the tournament

 

[Tempy]

Pepe...

 

[KHlover]

Pepe...

did nothing wrong in this case

 

[Oersted]

Austria is not Russia/Turkey tier, but hell they are trying

 

[Wind's Howling]

If Austria magically scores the 0-1 it is game over for Portugal.

 

[gutter_trash]

Sub in Renato and Eder now please

 

[Melfice7]

Not a dig against Ronaldo (for once), but does Portugal not have any more reliable freekick takers?

We absolutely do, but Ronaldo says NO

 

[Tugatrix]

this will get solve in the last 15 minutes

 

[KHlover]

tbh this was yellow-worthy

 

[Wind's Howling]

That's a fucking red card. Despicable foul.

 

[Oersted]

Alaba, that best Austrian player ever

 

[Cob32]

Lol stat from the BBC.

"Ronaldo has now had more shots than Northen Ireland at this Euro"

 

[Lender]

At least this one went over the wall.

 

[Soul Lab]

Alaba, that best Austrian player ever

dunno what's up with him. he is usually the best on the field

 

[KHlover]

Alaba, that best Austrian player ever

60% accuracy.
