This was undoubtedly Cristiano Ronaldo's last World Cup. For the second time that Ronaldo had been on the bench, this was big mistake. He was the leader of this team above all else. I think Portugal Coach should resing as soon as possible because of this fatal mistake. By the way This is the first time in history that an African team has advanced from the quarter-finals to the semi-finals of the World Cup. Morocco has played very well, Congrats Morocco.
Of course, Ronaldo managed to sharpen the game of the Portuguese national team in attack with entering the field, but obviously this was not enough to win and I think he would not have sustained such a pace during the entire match against Morocco, which otherwise quite deservedly reached the semifinals.
you are right After falling behind 1-0 in the first half, Portugal coach Ronaldo was brought on at the start of the second half. And from the start of the second half, Portugal's attacks increased in pace and scale. But it wasn't enough. If Portugal wasn't 1-0 down, the Portugal coach probably wouldn't have given Ronaldo a chance to play in this match.
I personally think if Ronaldo had been in the squad from the start of the match, Portugal would not have been beaten like that. Portugal's gameplay was quite slow in the first half. And that's why Morocco had a chance to attack and scored a goal. Although we see Morocco's defensive gameplay in every match, the first half of this match was dominated by Morocco's attack. And they are successful in this match too.
here is my bet;
