The Real Madrid star was on the losing side as his country lost to Bulgaria, and he even missed a penalty. However his coach has revealed that Portuguese fans have nothing to worry about ahead of the Euros this summer...
The Portuguese and Real Madrid star has been defended by international coach Fernando Santos after the Portuguese outfit failed to beat Bulgaria, in a frustrating match for the skipper, who missed a penalty.
"In the national team, and the clubs where he's been, Cristiano has always been a reference - always worth 40, 50 goals per season," Santos told the media.
"He didn't score [against Bulgaria] but he's reserving his goals for the Euros.
"We created many chances but we couldn't score. If we didn't create then, yes, I would be apprehensive."
Portugal dominated the game, and looking at their players that isn't surprising. However, the team does largely revolve around Ronaldo, so they need to hope their main man finds the net for them in the summer.
