Ronaldo Says Winning Nations League for Portugal Is the Greatest Joy of His Career
Portugal captain Cristiano Ronaldo described their UEFA Nations League win over Spain as “duty done” and an emotional moment for him. After Portugal secured the title with a penalty shootout victory, Ronaldo was seen wiping away tears, overwhelmed by the significance of the achievement.
For the 40-year-old, lifting a trophy with his country holds more meaning than any club success he’s had. He scored his 138th international goal to help push the game to penalties but then watched from the sidelines as Portugal converted all five spot-kicks to claim the trophy.
Speaking to Sport TV, Ronaldo shared how special the win was for his generation of players and his family, who came to support him. “Winning for Portugal is unlike anything else,” he said.
“I have many club titles, but nothing compares to this. It’s tears of joy. Duty done. This is what being captain means — pride and honor. Winning a major title with your country is the ultimate feeling.”
Former footballer Zlatan Ibrahimovic speaks on the World Cup and shares his thoughts on who could possibly win the FIFA World Cup 2026.
He spoke about the players who are performing really well and carrying their teams.
“Harry Kane, he did three things. Two goals and one run he did. We talk about Messi for Argentina, France with Mbappe, but they have other superstars also. Sir Harry Kane is England, and the way he performed today, he needs to continue like that if this England is going to have a chance.”
Morocco coach Mohamed Ouahbi speaks on the Netherlands’ elimination from the World Cup.
The coach explained why the team was eliminated. “Morocco has gained everybody’s respect now,” Ouahbi said, adding: “It’s not because of what we’ve said. We’ve now shown it.
“We completely dominated a Netherlands team. We had 70% possession, more shots and more expected goals. We controlled the match. We wanted to stay calm, play our game and believe that if it went to penalties, we had an exceptional goalkeeper. We didn’t turn the match into a chaotic battle. We controlled it.”
Nigerian footballer and former captain William Troost-Ekong revealed the standout player for him in the South African team during this World Cup.
He shared that Mbekezile Mbokazi really stood out in the World Cup match against Canada.
Despite their loss, he praised the team’s performance. “It speaks volumes that Mbokazi [Mbekezile] was the best player on the South African team. I believe Okon also had considerable possession of the ball.”
