1 European Cup and 1 Asian Cup, 1 Asian Cup, and 1 Asian Cup in the European League. Why do you still say that Ronaldo s national team has made no achievements?

In the European League semi-finals early this morning, Ronaldo scored the winning goal and helped Portugal defeat Germany 2-1 to advance to the final. He also continued to refresh the miracle of the national team's 137 goals, leaving second place Pauletta (47 goals) with a full 90 goals, leading the global national team scorer list in a fault-like manner! This is the fourth time that Portugal led by Ronaldo has reached the national team finals. As he advanced to the finals, Portugal lost the game and was able to win the runner-up even the first time.

In the history of coexistence between Portugal and Ronaldo, the Portuguese team represented by Ronaldo won one championship (2016) and one Asian League (2004) in the European Cup, the European League won one championship (2019), and the first runner-up in this session. Ronaldo participated in all four finals in Portugal. Why do many people still say that Ronaldo's national team has no achievements?

I think there are several reasons:

1. Controversy over the "hard battle" of the knockout stage in the competition

Although no one can beat the total number of goals in the national team of Ronaldo, his performance in the key knockout stages is often criticized. He scored 0 goals in 5 European Cups in 2024, setting a record for the worst competition; he also won no results in the 2022 World Cup knockout round. What’s even more heartbreaking is that of his national team’s 137 goals, the warm-up match accounts for nearly 21%, while there are only 3 goals in the knockout round, and the World Cup knockout stage is even zero!

2. The embarrassment in the comparison between the peerless two prides

Messi holds the World Cup championship + the Americas Cup championship and becomes the "national team Grand Slam". In contrast, although Ronaldo won the European Cup, he was criticized for being the "Camp" (retired in the finals), and his best result in the World Cup was only the semi-finals. When Messi established his position as the "King of Football" with the World Cup, Ronaldo's "no pain in the World Cup" was infinitely magnified.

3. The "big family configuration" of the Portuguese lineup

Today, Portugal can be called the second generation of the golden generation - five major leagues including B Se, B Fee, Dias, and Vitinia gathered in the core of the giants. Coach Martinez even said bluntly that this is "the best Portugal in the past 10 years." But when the 40-year-old Ronaldo still locked in the main center (the new European Champions League champion substitute center Ramos sat on the bench), doubts arose: Is the Saudi-sustained Ronaldo really worthy of this championship team? Especially when he scored 25 goals in the Saudi League but had zero championships, Saudi fans called him "retired", and it was naturally more difficult to convince the public at the national team level.

Therefore, it is not that people cannot see Ronaldo's four finals journeys and 137 goals miracle, but they hope that he will win the title of king in the Supreme Hall (World Cup) like Messi and carry the whole game. Finally, I want to ask, do you think it is the reason?
