FootballEuro 2024: Ronaldo Nets Powerful Left footed Strike Against Liechtenstein, Video
- Cristiano Ronaldo continued his red-hot form in the Euro 2024 Qualifiers with a goal against Liechtenstein
- Ronaldo's strike against the Group J minnows took his total tally in the qualifiers to 10 goals
- It's the sixth time the Al-Nassr captain has scored 10+ goals for Portugal in a calendar year
Cristiano Ronaldo maintained his exceptional goal-scoring form against Liechtenstein in the Euro 2024 Qualifiers.
Despite a challenging first half where opportunities were scarce, Ronaldo eventually seized the moment for the Selecao, unleashing a remarkable left-footed strike to break the deadlock.
Liechtenstein, considered the underdogs in Group J and having suffered defeats in their previous eight Euro Qualifiers outings, managed to hold the 2016 champions, leaving Roberto Martinez's team visibly frustrated by halftime.
However, Portugal swiftly altered the scoreline shortly after the break, courtesy of Ronaldo's prolific boots, marking his 10th goal in the qualifiers for next summer's championship, per the BBC.
The seasoned Al-Nassr striker capitalized on an outside-the-boot pass from Liverpool forward Diogo Jota, finding himself in a scoring position and skillfully placing the ball into the net with his weaker foot, leaving no room for error.
Here is the video:
Cristiano is now tied at the top of the list of leading goal scorers (10) in Euro 2024 qualifiers with Belgium striker Romelu Lukaku, as cited by CBS Sports Golazo.
Braga forward Bruma took over from the veteran forward after 66 minutes, with Roberto Martinez affording his veteran talisman a much-needed rest.
