Fernandes lent Ronaldo football shoes for Euro 2024
In the second half of Portugal’s match against Turkey on June 22, captain Cristiano Ronaldo assisted with the shoes of scorer Bruno Fernandes.
In the 21st minute, the Turkish defender did not clear the ball well, giving Ronaldo a chance to kick in the penalty area, but he slipped and fell. Portugal still opened the scoring, when Bernardo Silva stood behind the captain and took the opportunity to shoot towards the far corner into the net. Signal Iduna Park’s slippery surface caused many players to have difficulty, including the 39-year-old superstar who also slipped a few times.
