It’s a big blow for Portugal and Juventus as Cristiano Ronaldo’s night ends early because of injury

Cristiano Ronaldo limped off with a muscular injury while on international duty for Portugal on Monday night.

The Juventus forward went off in the 31st minute of Portugal’s European Qualifier against Serbia, with his side 1-0 down after a Dusan Tadic penalty.

He was hurt while sprinting to try to reach a long pass, but pulled up and signalled to the bench to be substituted, before medics arrived and treated his right thigh.
