Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on WhatsappShare on EmailShare on Telegram

Cristiano Ronaldo failed to convert a pivotal penalty that could have propelled Portugal to the next stage without the need for a penalty shootout.
Victor Boniface, a star player for the Super Eagles, responded to a post on social media by Cristiano Ronaldo following Portugal’s thrilling victory over Slovenia in a penalty shootout, as reported by Umpire Sports Report.
The renowned Portuguese player issued a formal apology on his Instagram account after their triumph, prompting reactions from football fans, including Bayer Leverkusen forward Boniface, who expressed his support with three heart emojis.


Despite being widely regarded as the more likely team to advance to the next round, Portugal and Slovenia found themselves in a 0-0 draw at the end of the standard playing time, with neither side able to break the deadlock and take the lead.
During the additional time, Portugal had an opportunity to avoid penalties, but Jan Oblak effortlessly saved Ronaldo’s penalty in the 103rd minute following a foul by Vanja Drkusic.
Portugal ultimately secured their victory in the penalty shootout, with goals from former Manchester United forward Bruno Fernandes and Bernardo Silva, resulting in a 3-0 win and granting them passage to the subsequent round.

Reflecting on the match, Ronaldo described his missed penalty as inexplicable in his Instagram post; “Unexplainable moments. Let’s give it our all! Thank you.”
Boniface was one of the individuals who promptly showed support for the five-time Ballon d’Or winner by reacting with three heart emojis to Ronaldo’s post.
Having progressed to the round of 16, Portugal now faces a formidable challenge against France, another top contender in the tournament.
The clash between Portugal and France promises to be an intense battle, with both teams boasting exceptional talent and a strong desire to advance in the tournament. The encounter between Cristiano Ronaldo and the French squad led by stars like Kylian Mbappé is anticipated to be a thrilling spectacle for football fans worldwide.
The outcome of this match will undoubtedly have a significant impact on the tournament’s progression, as the winner will move one step closer to achieving their ultimate goal of lifting the prestigious trophy.
