Episode Details

Cristiano Ronaldo has left the Portugal national team camp after a bizarre few days involving Jorge Jesus, his role in the team and questions about whether this is finally the end of his international career.

Sid and Loconte break down what may have happened between Ronaldo and Jorge Jesus, why the situation changed so quickly after their success together at Al-Nassr, and whether Ronaldo still has a place in this Portugal team.

Then we look back at the different versions of Cristiano Ronaldo: his incredible Euro 2012 run, the comparison with Gareth Bale at Euro 2016, the famous 2018 performance against Spain, and where Ronaldo belongs alongside Alfredo Di Stéfano in Real Madrid history.
