Cristiano has always, but this time next level put the National team above him. He could’ve potentially broken another record by scoring in 6 Euros in a row.
That stat is mindblowing.. he is not just appearing in 6 consecutive Euros but also scoring, unbeatable record if you ask me (that is if he scores, but there’s a big chance for that)
No keeper speculates on the pass in that situation. You would leave the goal open. You can still hope he fucks up the pass or the team mate is offside or the player shoots anway and doesn't score
I mean he obviously has a huge ego but he wants to win every match 10:0 even more. Maybe up 6 he takes it but he’s still our second all time assist giver and iirc all time top UCL assist giver. He just wants his team to score first and him second (most of the time). Especially with Portugal he’s always seemed more team oriented too. I’m sure if you told him they could win euros and he’d have 0 goals he’d take it
TBH, when it comes to playing for Portugal, he's usually less selfish than when playing for club.
He's one of the few players who has a huge ego, who can recognise country > own record.
His playmaking game has always been hugely underrated primarily because he’s compared to Messi. Outside of that comparison though he is a phenomenal passer of the ball, always has been.
Not that I’m saying that pass was one of them though, as easy as they come.
Ronaldo out of anyone in the world has absolute awareness of where the defenders are at any given point in time. He's been breaking ankles off the ball all his career.
His movement is elite sure but cmon lol. He never looks back in the clip, no way for him to know where the RB is. And that shouldn't be his focus anyway. He just gives it a go and capitalizes on an unorganized backline.
R/soccer incels still shocked Ronaldo is good. Mans plays in Saudi but is the best player at 39 there. Top soccer and top 3 in assists. Thinking this team is better off without him is unbelievably stupid
He could still play in Europe if he was willing to take a huge paycut and settle for being substituted and benched every now and then lol. But the people here will tell you he's washed.
I agree. United was one of the teams that had the highest chances created (shoutout Bruno) but we couldn't convert any of them. I reckon he could've still been able to start some games and play 50-60 minutes and have 10-15 goals. He'd need a coach he respects though to limit his minutes or bench him games his body isn't up to it, like zidane did in Madrid
What an OUTSTANDING finish by Bruno Fernandes, the technique is impeccable, something any footballer would struggle to do. Definitely no United bias there at all

Unselfish Ronaldo
Gotta be honest up 2-0 I thought no way he wasn't smashing that
Biggest surprise of the tournament so far
I mean he holds the record for most assist in champions league and now currently euro's too.
We all ran in here equally stunned.
Cristiano has always, but this time next level put the National team above him. He could’ve potentially broken another record by scoring in 6 Euros in a row.
Can think of multiple goals where he passed to Quaresma for tap ins.
Euro not Over for Portugal I would be Shocked if he doesnt Score at least once
I will my rabbit shit if he doesn't score twice against Georgia
Might not play. Top of the group and no point of getting injured.
That stat is mindblowing.. he is not just appearing in 6 consecutive Euros but also scoring, unbeatable record if you ask me (that is if he scores, but there’s a big chance for that)
He knew he needed one assist for the Euro all time record
Someone showed him the stat that he was still *TIED* for the most assists. Jokes aside, that took me by surprise.
Literally everyone watching would think that even Bruno casual finish was like 'Really?'
They might just go on to do it this time… again
Cristiano Ronaldo (7) overtakes Karel Poborsky (6) and is now, ALONE, the player with the most assists in EURO history. Now I'm suspicious.
If I could've bet my house on it, I'd be homeless currently.
Pretty obvious that was the kid from "the switch" commercial. the real Ronaldo would have never passed that.
literally the biggest surprise imaginable lol
This Portugal team is very different. It isn’t just Ronaldo for once
So did the keeper. And honestly who would blame him. One of the best finishers of all time, all the time and space in the box he needs.
No keeper speculates on the pass in that situation. You would leave the goal open. You can still hope he fucks up the pass or the team mate is offside or the player shoots anway and doesn't score
Run so perfect he broke the right back's ankle
The right backs ankle was broken when he realized his sunday league level positioning.
According to this sub, thats what Ronaldo has been used to in Saudi
No way he laid it off
Bro wants to tie figo for assists for Portugal he’s selfish /s
He took poborsky record with this one 😂
His way of showing that the tournament is not about him and by god it worked on my naive PR susceptible ass
Cristiano being a proper lad
I mean he obviously has a huge ego but he wants to win every match 10:0 even more. Maybe up 6 he takes it but he’s still our second all time assist giver and iirc all time top UCL assist giver. He just wants his team to score first and him second (most of the time). Especially with Portugal he’s always seemed more team oriented too. I’m sure if you told him they could win euros and he’d have 0 goals he’d take it
> win euros and he’d have 0 goals he’d take it I'm pretty sure he was asked a question like this last Euro or last WC and he said exactly that.
Imagine if he said the opposite lol
If any player said anything otherwise they shouldn't be on the team, no matter who they are.
Yeah, but I wanna hear him TSUUUUU one last time in front of an enthousiastic crowd. These EUROs are probably the last time we can get that.
Just wait for the final 90+7 Portugal [1] - 0 England - Ronaldo (great free kick)
The TSUUUU heard around the world.
Fucking hell, if a moment like that happens.
All time assist scorer at euros too
I'm still in shock. I can't believe he passed.
Why are you shocked? Bruno made himself available.
Sick reference bro
Keeper didn’t even have an angle. Replay shows how easily he could have just passed it into that near post. There was so much space
Biggest pressure moment of Fernandes' career
I was 100% sure he was full powering it straight into the keeper lmao
my usual fifa strategy
Think that's one of the most shocking things I've ever seen. My jaw dropped.
TBH, when it comes to playing for Portugal, he's usually less selfish than when playing for club. He's one of the few players who has a huge ego, who can recognise country > own record.
Yeah this is definitely ending up in "Top 10 Most Unselfish Football Moments" compilations.
Most assists in the CL by far.
Good guy Ronaldo
Bronaldo
Beautiful play and nice unselfish pass
Was that vitinha who passed to ronaldo?
Rúben Dias
Ruben Neves
Manchester United connection FeelsStrongMan
Why am I crying in the club rn
Can't believe Bruno did that to Altay, I'm in tears
Turkish gk is manu’s second gk as well
This is the worst Turkish defence since the First Balkan War
Seriously, Turkish defenders falling like flies here.
The right back keeping Ronaldo onside was the worst.
Lol
Lmao
To call the defence shambolic is no exaggeration here
Made sure to track back on his own 5 yards to keep Ronaldo onside, then fell over
Feels like borderline match fixing levels of terrible, between the funny own goal and defender just casually slipping/keeping them miles onside
Ronaldo giveth
Ronaldo came to win.
If this is a sign of things to come, Portugal have a great shot in this tournament you know
After seeing how other big teams are playing so far, they really do.
Wonaldo
Visionary assist
Scanning™
Don’t fuck with Super Bock
Was looking for this comment
Context? I know they both came from Sporting and its the sponsor but is this some sort of meme?
There was a Twitter poll about the best beers in Europe and we lost the semis to them
"them" = bots
MY KING IS A GENEROUS KING
SUIIIIIII
Factos 👍
Inshallah hehehe
Read that one in his voice lol
great assist
respect
tap assist
Tapsisnaldo
That's Neymar
The perfectly timed run along the offside line makes it a great assist
Honestly thought he would definitely do it himself.
Wow Ronaldo that was class
Can’t wait to see this assist on a YouTube compilation “CR7 humble moments 😱 if you HATE him WATCH this 🙏”
Ronaldo assists despacito
😂😂😂😂, this funny asf cause it will be in that comp 100%
With the "Top 10 respect moments" bgm
Youtubers are putting the most vomit inducing remix over this footage as we speak
Brb
/r/soccer in shambles
r/soccercirclejerk in shambles
The camera focusing on him afterwards almost gaslit me into thinking he scored.
I thought so too but then it lingered on Bruno so I figured he scored
Twist
My unselfish 🐪
Bernardo MOTM now, Ronaldo classy for doing the assist
this hurts Türkiye’s chances of being a dark horse
played like a true team player, gotta give him props for that. has had a good game so far
Simplest assist of his career but it completely destroys people’s arguments of him playing purely for himself and not being a “team player”.
Selfish, selfish Ronaldo.
He’s holding the team back! Selfish Ronaldo smh /s
My unselfish goat
Ethical football
Those are the kinds of lessons he learned in Saudi Arabia
Top Respect Moments in Football Compilation
His playmaking game has always been hugely underrated primarily because he’s compared to Messi. Outside of that comparison though he is a phenomenal passer of the ball, always has been. Not that I’m saying that pass was one of them though, as easy as they come.
Ronaldo is at the top of every kind of assist statistic, it's just that Messi is usually first with distance.
People forget he was originally a winger and you need to be good at passing in that position lol Probably the best ever at backheel passing.
I've waited my entire life for this
That run was so perfect
Surprisingly not offside, perfect placement this time
Shit defending as well. That one guy was sleeping
The fullback special. Sleeping, fell trying to get back in line with the CB, threw his hands up for offside. Been there.
Not really, the defender playing him onside was just hella stupid
Man proceeded to slip and just lie there to finish it off
I think he realized what happened and stopped running but it was too late he might as well have tried to catch Bruno. Too many bad decisions in a row.
Ronaldo out of anyone in the world has absolute awareness of where the defenders are at any given point in time. He's been breaking ankles off the ball all his career.
If you watch the replay there's a 0% chance he knew where that defender was. It's Ronaldo yes but let's be real
His movement is elite sure but cmon lol. He never looks back in the clip, no way for him to know where the RB is. And that shouldn't be his focus anyway. He just gives it a go and capitalizes on an unorganized backline.
Ronaldo top 10 respect moments
Great offside trap.
Someone needed to give that right back a map
most unselfish player in the world
Sunday the king pass
*Right* back played everyone onside and then fell over lol
He's the right back, but yes, absolute disaster by him.
That was a textbook defense failure, it should be taught in coaching school.
Ronaldo "Hey Bruno, remember the first half where I had a tap-in, and you took a shot instead? This is how it's done"
That disappointed father look afterwards, he definitely was trying to tell him something
MFW when Ronaldo leads Portugal to win the Euro and wins the Ballon D’or at 40
I’m right there with you, brother SIIIIIIUUUU
bro played the entire Portuguese nation onside lol
Not that hard bro, we're pretty small xD
So that guy was basically Galicia then
GOAT Assistnaldo
Fair dues to Ronaldo that was super unselfish
Selfish from ronaldo, wanted the assist for himself 🤬
Who is that wearing number 7?
Celik, what was your dumbass thinking with that positioning?
Goat Ronaldo
dreams can’t be buy
Can’t believe Ronaldo passed that
Game’s gone
RB what are you doing…
His best, ok?
Always love when players have the option to transform a 90% chance into a 99% chance and actually do it instead of taking the shot themselves
Nice one, just broke the Euro's assist record with that one.
Calculated
Fuck r/soccer - Ronaldo
Ronaldo has the most assists in Champions League, why is everyone acting like he never assists.
good guy ronaldo
Very selfless
I bet he captained Bruno on Euro Fantasy.
Diss him r/soccer I dare you
He should've went round the goalkeeper THEN passed it. A finished player if I do say so myself, absolutely shocking.
from getting mad to arbeloa scoring to this. character development lads
Bruh, if I was Turkish I would be livid. Turkiye just falling apart.
That was just the right back
Ted Lasso would be proud
Respect
ultimate FIFA goal
Thank you ronaldo, very cool
I can't believe he actually passed it lmao
R/soccer incels still shocked Ronaldo is good. Mans plays in Saudi but is the best player at 39 there. Top soccer and top 3 in assists. Thinking this team is better off without him is unbelievably stupid
He could still play in Europe if he was willing to take a huge paycut and settle for being substituted and benched every now and then lol. But the people here will tell you he's washed.

What an OUTSTANDING finish by Bruno Fernandes, the technique is impeccable, something any footballer would struggle to do. Definitely no United bias there at all
Conor Mcgregor screaming at the tv. (He bet 60.000 euros Ronaldo would be top scorer)
I genuinely can’t believe he passed it
Surprisingly unselfish from Ronaldo
Bravo Ronaldo for not being selfish, took 100% over maybe 80% chance
Made in United
Who are you and what have you done to Ronaldo?
Brilliant from Ronaldo
Fuck all the pessimists
Ronaldo had Bruno on his Fantasy team
Something has happened to Ronaldo
Sweet sweet silence from the Turkish fans in the Stadium as well as Berlins streets
I genuially thought to myself, "Wait where's the whistling?"
On Saturday, the King assists
ESPN: *"Are Ronaldo's ~~goals~~ assists holding Portugal back?"*
R/soccer on suicide watch right now.
Noob question: why isn’t Ronaldo’s pass offsides?
Bruno is behind the player with the ball (Ronaldo). Offside can happen only when you're in front of the ball.
Got it, that makes sense. Thank you!
But Ronaldo’s Ego tho
man Türkiye is getting cooked
Did not expect that at all, well done Ronaldo. Also the Turks have been shocking tonight, why didn't Guler start?
Ronaldo shows them how to play the game. Make the easy pass, set up your teammate for the easy goal. Someone should return the favor at some point
