Euro 2024: Misfiring Ronaldo sinks in tears as Portugal ride on Costa heroics

Hindustan Times  

Mumbai: What was it, really? Portugal's Cristiano Ronaldo is consoled by Ruben Dias during their team’s win over Slovenia at the Euro 2024 last-16 stage. It happened at the end of the first half of extra time in the Euro 2024 last 16 clash between Portugal and Slovenia at the Frankfurt Arena on Monday. About half an hour before Diogo Costa pulled off a sensational hat-trick of saves to help Portugal edge out Slovenia in the penalty shootout and set up a Euro quarter-final showdown with France. Desperation to achieve success can lead to great things, as India’s T20 World Cup-winning captain Rohit Sharma would testify, but this felt like something else.
