The 39-year-old Al-Nasr striker was previously a five-time Euro participant, but his achievement at the same tournament was repeated by former teammate Luka Modric, who plays for Croatia.

The game against the Czech Republic ended in a 2-1 victory for the Portuguese. The favorites of the meeting missed first, but were able to gather themselves and score three consecutive goals in the opponent's goal, one of which was canceled because of a tiny offside just at Ronaldo.

Earlier we wrote that France striker Kylian Mbappe will not play the remaining matches of the group stage of Euro 2024 because of a broken nose.
