Cristiano Ronaldo's Incredible Goal Drought in Major Tournaments, a Stark Contrast to Lionel Messi's Consistency
Cristiano Ronaldo's underwhelming performance in Portugal's 1-1 draw with Congo has raised concerns about his role in the team. The 41-year-old had the fewest touches of any player who completed the full 90 minutes and failed to register a single shot on target. This lackluster display comes after a ten-game drought in major tournaments, with his last goal for Portugal dating back to the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
Ronaldo's recent record for Portugal is alarming, and coach Roberto Martínez faces a major decision regarding his captain's position for the remainder of the tournament. Despite being one of the greatest players of all time, Ronaldo's performance has not lived up to expectations, sparking questions about his starting role. His inability to score in major tournaments, including the 2022 World Cup and Euro 2024, has put pressure on Martínez to consider alternative options.
