Cristiano Ronaldo is the superstar of this football world, where he is, there is traffic and heat, this is the charm of Portugal superstar Ronaldo. Euro 2024 is Ronaldo's sixth time participating in the event, but the supergiant has allowed domestic fans to witness the aging of a generation of superstars and their idols in this European Cup, with CCTV5 live broadcasting. How so? No hero can stand up to old age, there is no way around it.
Why did Cristiano Ronaldo, who scored so many goals in the Saudi Premier League and Portugal friendlies in the European Championships, suddenly fall silent? Take a look at Ronaldo's European Championship data,Five appearances, all starts, played a total of 486 minutes, 23 shots on goal, the most shots on goal in the European Championships, but no goals scored。
9 offsides, 3 games from the bottom of the rating。 Cristiano Ronaldo in the European Championship and Cristiano Ronaldo in the Saudi Super League and friendly matches are like two people, why is it difficult for Ronaldo to score a goal in the European Cup? Here's why:
- First:People are old! Ronaldo is 39 years old, plus he is not a technical player, a player who mainly relies on physical impact to eat, after Ronaldo's physical skills declined, he lost his ability to break through, and he is not a fulcrum center forward to play the No. 9 position, except for headers, it is difficult for Ronaldo to make a difference in the center forward position. Coupled with the lack of speed, Ronaldo will often fall into the offside trap, because he cannot compete with the defenders of the year. When you are old and your ability is poor, it will naturally be difficult to score goals in the competition.
- Second:Bad luck! finally got a penalty opportunity, Ronaldo's penalty shot was saved, which is the root of Ronaldo's inability to break the goal drought in this European Cup, and his luck is not on Ronaldo's side.
- Third:It's hard to convince the team! Ronaldo is the leading big brother of Portugal, but except for Pepe, there is actually no one in the current Portugal team who agrees with Ronaldo's competitive leader, and it can be seen from the B fee grabbing a free kick that everyone in Portugal is not convinced by Ronaldo. Ability determines everything, Ronaldo has taken a total of 30 free kicks in the European Cup, not a goal has been scored, Ronaldo is not interested in dominating the right to take free kicks, which has angered some teammates, but they dare not speak.
- Fourth:The Football Association and the coaches are too soft! The Portugal Football Federation and Portugal coach Martinez are too soft, they can't say no to Ronaldo, in fact, Ronaldo is 39 years old to participate in the European Cup, the best way is to come off the bench for half an hour, wait for the opponent's physical decline, and then play Ronaldo's shooting skills is the best way. But Portugal up to the Football Association, down to the coaching staff, no one dared to say no to Ronaldo, resulting in disunity within the Portugal team, unable to play the strongest combat effectiveness of the golden generation, sometimes some players do not even want to pass the ball to Ronaldo, resulting in Ronaldo and the whole Portugal team are hurt.

Sum upAny superstar is difficult to resist the old age, he should retire, he should retire, he will not retire when he is old, and he will start every game, which is a mistake for others and himself. Excessive pursuit of data, thinking about the "soft persimmon" of various European qualifiers and not retreating, will only harm Portugal football in the end。 Do you agree with this view?
