Ronaldo recreates classic moment

On the morning of June 9, Ronaldo and his teammates defeated Spain to win the UEFA Nations League championship for the second time.

After winning the penalty shootout, Cristiano Ronaldo changed into his uniform to lead the Portuguese team's celebration.

The 40-year-old veteran received the 7.5 kg pure silver trophy from UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin, then recreated the moment of lifting the Nations League trophy on his shoulders that caused a stir in 2019. This is the third title in Ronaldo's international career (Nations League 2019, 2025) and Euro 2016.

As captain, Ronaldo was the main character in the Portugal trophy ceremony. This is the first title for the superstar born in 1985 since leaving Juventus.

The Nations League Cup ended Ronaldo's four-year title drought. CR7 played a key role in Portugal's championship with eight goals, a feat no player in League A or the play-offs could match.

The Nations League title will give Ronaldo and his teammates more confidence to aim for a bigger goal at the World Cup taking place in North America next year. With his current form, Ronaldo is likely to remain the main striker of the "Seleccao" in the qualifying round of the world football festival.

Nuno Mendes sealed Lamine Yamal and had a hand in two goals in the final. The PSG star was awarded the best player of the match at the Allianz Arena.

Premier League trio Bernardo Silva, Ruben Dias and Diogo Jota added another trophy to their collection.

Alvaro Morata was pensive after the sinful moment that cost Spain the championship.

The defeat will help Spain's young stars, including Yamal, learn a lesson after a period of soaring performance.
