Cristiano Ronaldo Scores the 99th gGoal for the Portugal National Team, Here’s an Interesting Fact in the 2020 European Cup Qualifying Match

DBasia.news –   Juventus star, Cristiano Ronaldo, showed that even though he is 34 years old, his abilities have not changed at all. He was still able to break down the Luxembourg goal and make that goal as the 99th goal of the Portugal national team.

Playing in Josy Barthel, Sunday (11/17) PM, Portugal without difficulty won with a score of 2-0 through goals created by Bruno Fernandes (39 ‘) and Cristiano Ronaldo (88’). Portugal will retain the European Cup title next year.

Not only approaching his 100th goal for Portugal, Ronaldo also showed sharpness in 2019. According to ESPN records, the Juventus superstar scored 14 goals for Portugal in 2019 and this record is greater than in previous years.

The number of goals approaching 14 goals occurred in 2013 (10 goals), 2017 (11 goals) and 2016 (13 goals). While the other year, since Ronaldo played in 2003, is at an amount of under 10 goals.

However, Ronaldo did not pay attention to the record (as usual). The former Manchester United and Real Madrid star has highlighted the poor quality of the field at Josy Barthel.

“This is always important and a proud thing to defend the national team, and to score goals that help our escape,” Ronaldo said, quoted by Goal.

“We have two matches to win. I am thrilled that we won, and qualify for my fifth European Cup,” he continued.

“It’s challenging to play on this type of field, potato garden. I don’t know how can teams at this level play on a field with that quality.”

“The performance was not beautiful, but we completed our task. We fought against the pitch and we won 2-0, that is the most important thing,” he explained.
