[0:03](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/73zwvn5YbPxG/en/ronaldo-debate-quiet-performance-and-place-in-portugal-s-squad?t=3) He was very subdued, sorry, very subdued.

[0:06](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/73zwvn5YbPxG/en/ronaldo-debate-quiet-performance-and-place-in-portugal-s-squad?t=6) Man, they have to, they have to, they have to, Portugal has to free itself a little more from him, okay? That's my opinion.

[0:14](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/73zwvn5YbPxG/en/ronaldo-debate-quiet-performance-and-place-in-portugal-s-squad?t=14) It's like the Congo game. A Is that your name?

[0:20](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/73zwvn5YbPxG/en/ronaldo-debate-quiet-performance-and-place-in-portugal-s-squad?t=20) Totally. No, I didn't s-- I didn't say it like that, that he no longer, no longer has, he's old now, no longer, he's no longer the age to be there, I think.

[0:34](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/73zwvn5YbPxG/en/ronaldo-debate-quiet-performance-and-place-in-portugal-s-squad?t=34) I, I compare it to the Congo game, I think he wasn't given service today either.

[0:38](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/73zwvn5YbPxG/en/ronaldo-debate-quiet-performance-and-place-in-portugal-s-squad?t=38) No, Ronaldo shouldn't have been selected anymore at all.

[0:41](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/73zwvn5YbPxG/en/ronaldo-debate-quiet-performance-and-place-in-portugal-s-squad?t=41) He shouldn't even have started. Zero in this game, a real zero indeed
