- Portugal's head coach, Roberto Martinez, has dismissed speculation that he might rest Cristiano Ronaldo for their upcoming Euro 2024 clash with Turkiye.
Despite being 39 years old, Ronaldo remains a crucial part of the Portugal squad. He played the full 90 minutes against Czechia on Tuesday, contributing to the team's late 2-1 victory, even though he didn't score.
Martinez emphasized Ronaldo's importance in a pre-match press conference, highlighting the forward's invaluable experience and skill. "Do you know how many minutes Cristiano played last season? He has experience; there is no other player in the history of football with six European Championships played," Martinez stated. "It is important to understand what a player brings. Cristiano brings experience, goal opportunities, and a way of opening up spaces. Cristiano is in the national team because he deserves to be here, just look at what he has done and what he has done in the last competitions."
Ronaldo's role in the national team came under scrutiny during the 2022 Qatar World Cup when he was dropped from the starting line-up after scoring only one goal in the group stages. His replacement, Goncalo Ramos, made a significant impact by scoring a hat-trick. Despite this, Martinez's recent comments reaffirm Ronaldo's status as a key player for Portugal as they continue their Euro 2024 campaign.
