Ronaldo Failed To Register A Single Shot As Holland Humiliate Portugal In Friendly Match

On Monday night Ronaldo was left frustrated against Holland in an international friendly


Cristiano Ronaldo failed to register a shot for the first time this season in Portugal's 3-0 defeat by Holland in a friendly on Monday.

The game brought to an end Real Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo’s run of scoring in nine consecutive games for both club and country as he failed to register even a shot in a game for the first time this season.

However, Ronald Koeman's side managed to prevent him from having an effort on goal and secured a comfortable victory.

Memphis Depay opened the scoring for Holland while Ryan Babel and Virgil van Dijk added the others before Joao Cancelo was sent off for Portugal.

Ronaldo had scored four for Madrid before the international break and he rescued the Euro 2016 champions in the friendly against Egypt last Friday night. He netted a brace in stoppage time to seal a 2-1 victory.

On Monday night Ronaldo was left frustrated at seeing a penalty appeal rejected after he went down following a challenge from Nathan Ake.

The Portuguese, who scored 19 goals in his previous nine games, was also substituted after 68 minutes.
