Cristiano Ronaldo will start the match between Portugal and the Czechs at Euro 2024 from the first minutes
Portugal national team striker Cristiano Ronaldo will be in the starting lineup for the first round group stage match with the Czech Republic at Euro 2024. Sport24 reports this.
For 39-year-old Ronaldo, the current European Championship will be the sixth in his career. Together with Ronaldo, 41-year-old defender Pepe will take the field from the first minutes, who in this case will become the oldest player in the history of the Euro. The Group F match between Portugal and the Czech Republic will begin at 22:00 Moscow time.
On June 17, the head coach of the Portuguese national team, Roberto Martinez, banned Ronaldo’s friends from living in the same hotel with the national team at Euro 2024. The specialist explained that in this way he wants to improve the concentration of Ronaldo himself and his teammates. It was noted that the striker reacted to this measure with understanding.
Euro 2024 takes place in ten cities in Germany from June 14 to July 14. The current European champions are the Italians.
