End of controversial match in Portugal-Serbia, Saturday.

While the Serbs, led 2-0 at the break, had risen to 2-2, Ronaldo thought he had scored the winning goal at the very end of the stoppage time. On an opening by Nuno Mendes, the Portuguese captain had beat the goalkeeper exit and knocked the ball back into the goal.

Mitrovic then tackled the ball to clear it at the line.

Too late, the ball came in well, but the referee of the meeting Danny Makkelie, did not validate the goal.

Mad with rage, Cristiano Ronaldo went to tell the Dutchman what he thought of his decision.

He was given a yellow card, then returned directly to the locker room, throwing his armband to the ground.

“I will always give my all for my country, it will not change anything, later wrote Ronaldo on his Instagram account.

But there are difficult times to deal with, especially when we feel like we're hurting an entire nation.
