Before the match, C. Ronaldo was compared to the prodigy Lamine Yamal. In the end, the 40-year-old superstar won this “old vs young” battle.
After the match, CR7 sent a message to Yamal: “I believe that Yamal will win many titles in the future. He is a phenomenon in football. Yamal's career is still very long. I believe that this boy will win many Nations League titles in the coming years.”
In recent times, Yamal has imitated CR7's way of celebrating many times. Although he does not understand the player's intentions, it is clear that the Portuguese superstar's arrogance has a great influence on the 17-year-old player.
C. Ronaldo burst into tears when he won the Nations League championship. The player born in 1985 did not play the entire match due to injury. He confirmed that he was ready to break his leg for the Portuguese team.

CR7 said: “I had a little pain from the warm-up. Actually, this injury has been lingering for a while. But for the national team, if I have to break my leg, I am ready. This is an important title for the Portuguese team. Therefore, I was forced to play. I played to the best of my ability, trying until I could not continue. Luckily, I left my mark with a goal.”
C. Ronaldo also shared an emotional message to Portuguese fans: “This joy is indescribable. The current generation of Portuguese football players deserve to win a major title. I want to dedicate this title to my family.
I have won many titles at both individual and club level. However, winning a championship with the national team always has a special meaning. The tears today explain that. I have fulfilled my responsibility and am immersed in overwhelming happiness."
C. Ronaldo has scored 938 goals in his career. He is aiming for the milestone of scoring 1,000 goals. In addition, CR7 is also fighting against time to be in time for the 2026 World Cup, the last major tournament of his career.
