Cristiano Ronaldo was left on the bench for this game and only came on in the 73rd minute when the game was practically closed out. In the previous game, Santos was frustrated with the number 7 as he seemed to show his displeasure at being subbed off against South Korea. CR7 was seen saying, “He’s in a rush to sub me.”

Santos was not happy with this reaction and spoke about the same. He said, ‘Have I already watched the footage? Yes. I didn’t like it. Didn’t like it at all. From there, it’s things you sort out internally. It was sorted out this way, and now we think about the game tomorrow. Everyone is focused on the game.’
The Portuguese manager put Ronaldo on the bench for the game against Switzerland and handed a start to Goncalo Ramos, who ended up scoring a hat-trick in this game. Ronaldo will be happy to make it to the Quarterfinals, but he will be buzzing to be back in the starting XI, in their game against Morocco. Will Santos comply though? We’ll have to wait and find out.
