The Portuguese star was suspended for the rest of the group stage for openly diving
Rafael Leao is one of Portugal’s important strikers, but his start at EURO 2024 was not very impressive. Now, Leao will not be able to play in the final round of the group stage.
In the second match of Group F – EURO 2024, Portugal won 3-0 against Türkiye. This result helps Portugal officially enter the round of 16 with first place in the group one round early. But in the final match against Georgia, coach Roberto Martinez will definitely have to make personnel adjustments, such as Rafael Leao. The Milan star started in Portugal’s first two matches at the EURO 2024 finals but did not leave much of an impression.
The reason he was called up to the Portuguese national team was his good performance at Milan last season. Leao scored 15 goals and made 14 assists in 47 appearances in all competitions for AC Milan. Unfortunately, in this EURO, Leao has not met expectations. The 25-year-old striker also received a yellow card at the end of the first half of the Türkiye vs Portugal match after an obvious tackle. Notably, before that, in the win over the Czech Republic, Leao was also given a yellow card for the same mistake. Having received 2 yellow cards after 2 matches, Rafeal Leao will be suspended for the final group stage match against Georgia.
Although Rafael Leao is missing, this is not a big problem for coach Roberto Martinez as the match with Georgia is only a formality. Besides, he still has other stars in his hand like Diogo Jota, Joao Felix or Pedro Neto. Currently, Martinez is also monitoring the situation of his student Goncalo Ramos. After the match against Türkiye ended, Ramos went on the field to celebrate with his teammates. While moving on the field, PSG’s striker was suddenly knocked down. Specifically, a security guard at Signal Iduna Park ran as fast as he could, then slipped and rushed straight into Ramos.
According to SunSport, this person accidentally knocked down Ramos when he rushed to help his colleagues control an intruder who rushed into the field to approach Ronaldo. Suffering a sudden “accident”, Goncalo Ramos collapsed on the field in front of his teammates’ surprise. The 23-year-old striker then stood up and limped away.
