After watching today's match, I felt something that many Ronaldo fans have been feeling for years.
This isn't about his age. It's about what he can still do. Even at 41, there are plenty of younger players who can't match his mentality, movement, or football IQ.
What hurts the most is watching him make run after run, finding space, asking for the ball, and getting ignored. Not because he's finished, but because Portugal no longer plays around the player who carried the nation for nearly two decades.
Cristiano Ronaldo spent almost 20 years putting Portugal on the map, breaking records, winning trophies, and carrying the expectations of an entire country on his shoulders. Yet sometimes it feels like the respect he deserves disappears the moment he steps onto the pitch.
No player can stay 25 forever. But legends deserve support, trust, and respect.
Watching Ronaldo isolated up front today was genuinely painful. The greatest player Portugal has ever produced deserves better.
