Germany football legend, Didi Hamann, has called Cristiano Ronaldo “embarrassing” after the Portugal captain cried following his penalty miss against Slovenia...READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
Ronaldo’s penalty in extra time was brilliantly saved by Jan Oblak, keeping the score goalless.
The 39-year-old was seen in tears at half-time in extra-time, with team-mates consoling him.
Portugal eventually went on to win 3-0 in a penalty shootout with Diogo Costa saving three spot-kicks, while Ronaldo converted his effort before apologising to fans.
Hamann, speaking on RTE, said: “Thirty-nine-year-old plays 120 minutes, he misses a penalty and I’ve got to say, I bought into all that ‘Ronaldo has turned into a team player because he needs the team more than he used to’.
“I bought into that nonsense as well, but I think he showed his true colours again tonight.
“Missing the penalty, he starts crying on the pitch, he starts crying at half-time in extra-time. And I’m thinking ‘it’s all about you’.
“There’s a squad of 26 players, there’s 20 staff, there’s 30 or 40,000 fans in there, it’s not about you.”
