Damn, this is the first time I'm looking at this goal after it happened and so many unfortunate circumstances for Croatia. Total miskick by Nani that turned out to be a great assist for Cristiano with a poor shot and a good save by Suba and then it is deflected right into the path of Quaresma... But OK, this is when our long streak of really bad luck at big tournaments pretty much stopped and we won World Cup silver and bronze and UEFA Nations League silver... Maybe a gold is also in there somewhere in our future...
I would have agreed if CR7 actually tried to pass Quaresma the ball, but he didn't. He chose to shoot it and the goalie saved it. Quaresma had to clean up Ronaldo's mess. Luckily he was there to tap it in. The only reason Portugal won in 2016 was because of guys like Nani, Sanchez and Quaresma. Ronaldo didn't show up when it mattered most for his country. He never does unfortunately. 2 Euro Finals and 0 goals. This one they later won, he was on the bench lol. In 5 WC's the stats are even worse, CR7 has 0 goals in elimination games. It's quite sad for a player many consider their 🐐
What a pass from Nani.. Such class innit
not looking like he tried to pass
