UEFA Nations League: Ronaldo scores twice to send Portugal through to QF

Cristiano Ronaldo scored a penalty and an overhead kick as Portugal beat Poland 5-1 to guarantee a place in the Nations League quarterfinals on Friday. Scotland had its first win in nine games to keep alive its hopes of staying in the tournament's top tier. The match between Romania and Kosovo was suspended in stoppage time and later abandoned with the score 0-0 in Bucharest. There were scuffles between players from both teams and Kosovo players walked off the pitch. European soccer body UEFA did not explain why the game was cut short but Kosovo players were reportedly upset at hearing pro-Serbian slogans. The UEFA Nations League match between Romania and Kosovo has been abandoned. UEFA will communicate further information in due course," it said on its website. After historic tensions were heightened by the 1990s Balkans conflicts, in 2008 majority ethnic Albanians in Kosovo declared independence for the former Serbian province. Serbia refuses to recognize that independence and .

Euro 2024: It is Ronaldo vs Mbapp as Portugal and France meet in last 8

Portugal and France meet in the European Championship quarterfinals on Friday and the match features a head to head between two of soccer's biggest stars: Cristiano Ronaldo and Kylian Mbapp. The winner will play either Spain or host nation Germany in the semifinals. Kickoff is at 9 p.m. local (1900 GMT) in Hamburg. Here's what to know about the match: Match facts It's a match between two of the pre-tournament favorites but neither have been convincing. Portugal hasn't scored a goal in its last two matches a 2-0 loss to Georgia and a 0-0 with Slovenia before winning a penalty shootout while no France player has scored from open play at Euro 2024. The French have had two own-goals and a penalty from Mbapp. Ronaldo burst into tears after having a penalty saved in extra time against Slovenia. Appearing in his record sixth European Championship, he has yet to score if he does, the 39-year-old striker would be the oldest ever scorer at the tournament. Mbapp will again be wearing a ...

Euro 2024 highlights: Epic penalties drama for CR7 ends with Portugal win

No one does high drama in international soccer to such an operatic extent as Cristiano Ronaldo. Portugal is heading to a blockbuster quarterfinal with France at the European Championship after its star captain generated compelling viewing on center stage of the victory over Slovenia on Monday. Winning a penalty shootout 3-0 after a 0-0 game against the 57th-ranked team in world soccer might not sound much. But there were tears, lots of them, from Ronaldo; an apology in prayer-form to his fans, who responded with adulation; extravagant arm gestures of anger, frustration and exasperation; chances wasted and denied to make more tournament history; a renewed duel with an old rival goalkeeper; and ultimately redemption and victory. Ronaldo's mother was in the stadium and TV pictures showed her crying, too, after he missed his penalty. Sometimes it's hard and difficult to score penalties," Ronaldo told Portuguese broadcaster RTP after the match, getting emotional again. I've scored more

Euro Cup 2024: Portugal chases third win against newcomer Georgia

Portugal is already qualified for the European Championship knockout stages and can sign off from Group F in style with a third win when it plays newcomer Georgia on Wednesday. A draw might give Georgia a chance at qualifying, depending on results elsewhere, but it's likely to need a shock win. The kick-off in Gelsenkirchen at the same time as group rivals the Czech Republic and Turkey meet in Hamburg is 9 pm local time (1900 GMT, 12.30 am [Thursday]). Here's what to know about the match: Match facts There will be scrutiny of Euro 2024 security after no fewer than six different fans invaded the field or tried to seek selfies with Cristiano Ronaldo at Portugal's 3-0 win over Turkey. Four of them reached Ronaldo. UEFA said on Sunday it increased security, but there was another fan on the field on Monday as Spain beat Albania 1-0. On its major tournament debut, Georgia has won praise for its battling style and nearly beat the Czech Republic in its second game if not for a last-secon

Euro 2024: Portugal's chaotic 3-0 win over Turkey, takes them to R-16

There were no goals, one assist and no less than four selfie-pursuing field invaders for Cristiano Ronaldo in Portugal's 3-0 win over Turkey that secured a spot in the European Championship round of 16 on Saturday. Ronaldo was the center of attention as always at Westfalenstadion but not how he might have expected. The five-time world player of the year set up the third goal by Bruno Fernandes with an unselfish pass when he could easily have attempted a shot after being played clean through. Then there was chaos as three fans got on the field at different times in the second half and attempted selfies with Ronaldo. He accepted the first but looked unhappy at the other two. Another phone-waving supporter, wearing a Portugal jersey, got to Ronaldo moments after the final whistle and security had to hold back another person attempting to confront one of the most famous sports stars in the world as he walked off the field with his teammates. Ronaldo might be more unhappy at failing to

Euro Cup 2024: Conceio scores in stoppage time to give Portugal 2-1 win

Portugal substitute Francisco Conceio scored in stoppage time for a 2-1 win over the Czech Republic in their European Championship opening game on Tuesday. Conceio, who only made his entrance in the 90th minute, fired the ball home in the 92nd after Robin Hranac's attempted block of fellow substitute Pedro Neto's shot fell kindly for the Porto winger to shoot inside the left post. "The players that came off the bench showed that the team has a lot of options," Portugal coach Roberto Martnez said. Conceio wheeled away in delight and was booked for taking off his jersey. It comes almost 24 years to the day since Conceio's father, Srgio Conceio, scored a hat trick to knock defending champion Germany out of Euro 2000. Czech Republic goalkeeper Jindrich Stanek had thwarted Cristiano Ronaldo as the Portugal star became the first to play at six European Championship tournaments. The 39-year-old Ronaldo was unable to add to his record 14 goals in his record-extending 26th appearance at th
