Ronaldo couldn’t control the tears after the missed penalty, but his teammates tried to cheer him up because the game was not over yet.

After a long pass, Sesko was faster than the Portuguese defenders and went alone against the Portuguese goalkeeper Djokovic, who successfully parried the Slovenian’s attack.

In the series of shots after the match, Ronaldo recovered, Bruno Fernandes and Bernardo Silva were also accurate in the ranks of the Portuguese national team, but all the shots of the Slovenian footballers were saved by Košta.
