After scoring, the Portuguese star also left his mark with a new way of celebrating. After opening the score in the 9th minute, the striker born in 1985 ran to the corner of the field as usual and jumped into the air to perform his 'siuuu' celebration.
As he landed, Ronaldo put his hands on his chest and made a gesture that was said to mimic the motion of sleeping. As his teammates ran to congratulate him, Ronaldo closed his eyes and looked up at the sky.
Ronaldo's new celebration style is expected to become a worldwide trend in the near future. Previously, he went viral with his hand-clasping celebration after scoring against Everton in October. Many players around the world have learned this style from CR7 after scoring.
In October 2023, Portugal will reunite to play the next two matches in the Euro 2024 qualifiers, against Bosnia and Iceland respectively.
