Portugal beat Uzbekistan 5-0 on the afternoon of Tuesday, June 23, in what was the National Team’s second game at the 2026 World Cup.
As two goals were scored by captain Cristiano Ronaldo, who has been heavily criticized in recent days due to the Quinas team’s draw against Congo, Manuel Luís Goucha was one of the many public figures to speak out and come to the defense of the Portuguese star.
This Wednesday morning (24), the TV Globo presenter published a photo of Cristiano Ronaldo and in the caption lamented the comments from the “bench coaches”.
“I don’t care much about football, but I confess that it gives me great pleasure to realize that the many “bench coaches” (and if there are also those in other areas!) who considered him finished a week ago will be the same ones who today exult him as the Greatest. Bunch!”he wrote.
