After the 4-1 loss against Denmark, Portugal coach Jorge Jesus said: "Do I miss Cristiano? In response to a question about Cristiano Ronaldo's absence. When he is no longer in the team? Unless he wants to come and talk to me. "He's not playing anymore, he's not here and he's decided on his situation."
When Jesus was asked about Ronaldo's memorial service; A ceremony where Portugal's main players wore his famous number 7 shirt as they exited the dressing room tunnel and the crowd cheered him on in the seventh minute, the Portuguese coach only said: "This honor was deserved by Ronaldo for everything he did for the national team and Portugal."
Jesus said strongly in the press conference after the match about the fans leaving the stadium and cheering for Ronaldo: "These two issues have nothing to do with each other. People miss him and have not forgotten what Cristiano did for the national team in 23 years. Nobody is happy."
He said: "The exit of some fans from the stadium when the score is 4-1 is understandable; nobody is happy with such a result.
