  • Ronaldo booked for bad foul on Dubravka
  • Suspended for Luxembourg clash
  • Portuguese ace Ramos praises fellow forward

WHAT HAPPENED? Ronaldo will miss Portugal’s Euro 2024 qualifier against Luxembourg after picking up a suspension via a yellow card he received in a 1-0 win over Slovakia on Friday. The 38-year-old was, arguably, fortunate not to be sent off after catching his former Manchester United team-mate and Slovakian goalkeeper Martin Dubravka in the face with a reckless lunge. Despite the rash foul, Paris Saint-Germain striker Ramos has praised his veteran international colleague – who has already made his way back to Saudi Arabia to resume club duties at Al Nassr.

WHAT THEY SAID: Ramos told reporters: “Cris [Ronaldo] always gives great support, he has been with the team until today [Sunday] supporting us and helping in whatever way he can, but at this moment he has already returned to his club.”
