Why did he ban his mum from watching?
According to the report on UK Sun and Mirror, Cristiano Ronaldo explained that the health condition of his mother remains his major priority and he would not want anything to affect Dolores.
Cristiano Ronaldo's reaction
"I say, 'Listen, I don't have a father any more. I don't want to lose my mum, too, so you're not going to watch quarter finals, semi-finals, or finals."
Cristiano Ronaldo released from Portugal camp
Earlier, Briefly News had reported how Cristiano Ronaldo is on course to make his second Manchester United debut next weekend following his early departure from the Portugal camp.
The 2016 European champions came from a goal down to beat the Republic of Ireland 2-1 in their 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifier earlier this week.
Ronaldo scored both goals for his country towards the end of the fixture and in the process bagged a yellow card that ruled him out of their next encounter against Azerbaijan on September 7.
The goals also bore some personal significance for Ronaldo as he became the all-time goal scorer in men’s international football with 111 goals.
The only blooper in an otherwise perfect night for the 36-year old was the fact that he received a yellow card during the game and was subsequently banned for Portugal’s next match.
