Ronaldo Exits World Cup After Spain Defeat

After six World Cup appearances spanning nearly two decades, Cristiano Ronaldo's tournament journey concluded with Portugal's elimination by Spain. The 40-year-old forward, who won three major titles with Portugal including Euro 2016, reflected on his legacy: "He ganado tres títulos. Antes de mí, Portugal no tenía ninguno" (I've won three titles. Before me, Portugal had none).

Ronaldo's World Cup journey began in 2006 when Portugal reached the semifinals. His final appearance ended similarly to his first, with a Round of 16 defeat to Spain. "Lo di todo, me esforcé al máximo y me voy con la conciencia tranquila," he stated, adding he won't make "decisiones precipitadas en caliente" about his international future. noplasticplease.life
