After the draw with DR Congo, Cristiano Ronaldo: Nothing was missing, that's the beauty of football

Portugal started this year's World Cup with a disappointing draw against the Democratic Republic of Congo. All eyes were on Cristiano Ronaldo, who failed to score in this match despite having some opportunities.

However, at the end of the match, the Portugal captain appeared very calm despite the unexpected result achieved by his team.

'What was missing? Nothing was missing, this is football. Portugal could have won, but they could have lost. Both teams had their chances,' Cristiano Ronaldo told Sport TV.

Cristiano Ronaldo broke the record of his compatriot Pepe as the oldest player to wear the Portuguese national team jersey and at the same time equaled Messi as the oldest players to play in their 6th World Cup.

Likewise, Ronaldo is the second oldest footballer to play in a World Cup, the record still held by Cameroonian football legend Roger Milla, who played in the 1994 World Cup in the USA at the age of 42 years and 39 days.
