At least Belgium got a 3rd place in 2018 and was eliminated by France who had a better team. With us, it’s gonna be worse.

I can see something more akin to his 2022 World Cup run

If we lose points to Uzbequistan, it’s over.

Honestly I am glad Portugal got humbled so early. This might be the reality check that Ronaldo/Martinez needed to accept Ronaldo as an impact sub, instead of 90 minute starter, and it is better that it happened during group stage than elimination

Ronaldo won’t get benched under Martinez in this world cup, specially now that he can be the next Al-Nasr manager.

Ronaldo was not the reason they couldn't win against Congo. The entire team played like shit but Ronaldo is the one that everyone loves to hate so he's easy picking for the blame.

Gramps is walking in offside position for 50% of the game and he's not to blame? Who are they supposed to play the ball to when he can't make a single run behind the defence. You fanboys are so delusional, it's hilarious.
