Portugal’s match versus Luxembourg in the Euro 2024 qualifiers will take place without Ronaldo

Cristiano Ronaldo, captain of the Portuguese team, will miss Monday’s Euro 2024 qualifying match against Luxembourg due to a suspension.

The Al-Nassr attacker was cautioned during Friday’s 1-0 victory over Slovakia.

Ronaldo was extremely lucky not to be punished more after he accidentally kicked ex-Manchester United teammate Martin Dubravka in the face.

Referee Glenn Nyberg, however, showed Ronaldo only a yellow card after consulting the video assistant referee.

Ronaldo has been suspended for the rest of the European Championship qualification season after receiving his third yellow card of the season.
