Cristiano Ronaldo was spotted wearing his teammate’s custom-designed shoes during Portugal’s victory over Turkey in Group F Euro 2024.
Portugal defeated Türkiye 3-0 in the second match of Group F to win tickets to the next round of Euro 2024.
Bernardo Silva opened the scoring before Samet Akaydın humorously scored an own goal. In the second half, Ronaldo assisted Bruno Fernandes to score the third goal, which was also the match-winning goal.
Ronaldo was the focus of this match. Even though he did not score, CR7 still went down in history as the player with the most assists in Euro. Not only that, eagle-eyed fans also noticed that superstar Al Nassr wore shoes made specifically for Bruno Fernandes to create that achievement.
It is known that the Manchester United star lent Ronaldo his shoes during the second half when Bruno’s daughter’s name appeared on the 39-year-old striker’s shoes. The name Matilde was written on the five-time Ballon d’Or winner’s pink shoes after the break. In fact, it is unclear why Ronaldo had to borrow Bruno’s shoes, but the interesting coincidence is that Ronaldo assisted Bruno when he wore those borrowed shoes.
The 39-year-old player still has great appeal at this year’s tournament. In the match against Türkiye, there were no less than 3 times the referee had to stop the match because of aggressive fans.
After the match coach Roberto Martinez described it as a ‘concern’, saying: “It is a concern. Today the fans’ intentions were good. We all love a fan But you have to understand that there will be a difficult time if their intentions are wrong. We need to be careful that should not happen – there should be many security measures.”
“We should also give a message to the fans because that’s not the right way. Things can get worse in the future. It’s not good to let the players have too much contact on the field .”
Sharing the same opinion as coach Martinez, Man City’s Silva added: “I’m a bit uncomfortable when I always have to stop the match because a fan enters the field. I think that’s the price you have to pay when you’re recognized by the football world and have a player like Ronaldo in your team.”
