Before the match against Slovenia in the round of 16 of EURO 2024, Bruno Fernandes affirmed that with Ronaldo, collective achievements are always more important than making an individual mark.

Bruno Fernandes praised Ronaldo

The Portuguese team does not have many difficulties to participate in the round of 16 of EURO 2024. Ronaldo and his teammates’ opponent, Slovenia, are underestimated and Portugal’s door to continue is very bright.

Ronaldo has not been able to score any goals in this year’s tournament. The striker born in 1985 had the opportunity to “open his account” in the Turkish match. However, CR7 chose to assist Bruno Fernandes instead of scoring in a favorable position himself.

 

Ronaldo assisted Bruno in the Türkiye match

Before the competition with Slovenia in the round of 16, Bruno Fernandes highly appreciated the team spirit of his teammates. The midfielder wearing shirt number 8 said: ” For Ronaldo, the most important thing is winning for the team, not personal achievements.

In the match against Türkiye, he passed the ball to me even though he was one-on-one with the goalkeeper. That was a great decision by Ronaldo. I believe that if Ronaldo had finished in that position, Portugal would still have won 3-0.”

The midfielder of MU also warned his teammates not to be subjective against Slovenia. Because in this round, the smallest mistake can make the home team pay the price.

Bruno said: ” We want to win every match. In other words, Portugal is determined to reach the final and win the championship.

No one wants to go home early, especially Portugal, because we know our capabilities. Don’t forget that Slovenia beat us in a friendly, so we have to keep our feet on the ground.

The opponents have a good defence. But that means we have to find a way to put the ball in the Slovenian net.”
