Ronaldo Suffers Hamstring Injury And Misses Portugal Wonder Goal

With just over two weeks to go until Juventus travels to Amsterdam to play Ajax in the first leg of its Champions League quarterfinal matchup, Cristiano Ronaldo has been forced off injured with an apparent hamstring injury while on international duty.

In the 31st minute of today’s Euro 2020 qualifier between Portugal and Serbia at Estadio da Luz in Lisbon, Ronaldo went sprinting after a ball on the left wing before pulling up and immediately signaling for a substitution. 

The medical team examined his right leg, and it’ll all come down to the severity of the tear with regards to Ronaldo being ready for Ajax on Apr. 10. 

The good news for fans of Portugal is that only 10 minutes later, Danilo Pereira scored a wonder goal to even things at 1-1. What a hit from the FC Porto defensive midfielder, whose performances in the Champions League have made him a wanted man at Europe’s biggest clubs. His price tag just rose by a few million.
