Ronaldo named among worst XI players at EURO 2024

Al Nassr and Portugal’s captain Cristiano Ronaldo has been named in the worst XI of Euro 2024 by Spanish sports newspaper Marca.

Ronaldo, 39, failed to score a single goal during the tournament, contributing to Portugal’s early exit.

The veteran forward stands out as the only Portuguese player in the unfortunate lineup.

His performance was notably underwhelming, marking a stark contrast to his usual high standards on the international stage.
