    They aren’t pretty to watch but they are effective and topped their qualifying group unbeaten ahead of Switzerland.

    How Romania attack
    Romania will play out from the back and play one or two-touch passes to break between the lines.
    However, they can run out of ideas when faced with a low block.
    How Romania defend
    Romania do not tend to press high as a unit and their players can be dragged out of position up the pitch.
    However, they are far more effective close to their own goal with the midfield dropping deep to support the back four.

Then I thought we don’t have much to talk about.”Ronaldo’s refusal to knock back the empty calories which come with booze doesn’t come as a surprise.How Portugal have performed at the Euros with Cristiano Ronaldo
    CRISTIANO RONALDO has been a model of longevity for more than two decades in an outstanding international career.
    Euro 2004
    After making his international debut in 2003, Ronaldo’s first Euros came in 2004.
    Ronaldo marked his Euro debut with a goal in a 2-1 defeat to Greece – his first for Portugal.
    He scored his second in the semi-final win over the Netherlands, but Portugal met Greece again in the final, losing 1-0 in shock result.
    Euro 2008
    Ronaldo was Portugal captain four years later but Euro 2008 was the least impactful tournament he’s had.
    There was still time for a standout performance, though, as Ronaldo scored once and set up two more in a group-stage win over the Czech Republic.
    Euro 2012
    Playing at Real Madrid at the time, Ronaldo was the top goalscorer at Euro 2012, with three goals, including a brace in the group stage against the Netherlands.
    Portugal’s quarter-final against Czech Republic was heading towards a stalemate with 10 minutes to go and they needed a special moment from him.
    His powerful header in the dying minutes took Portugal to the semi-finals where they lost on penalties to Spain.
    Euro 2016
    Ronaldo scored three goals in Euro 2016, with Portugal crowned CHAMPIONS after defeating France 1-0 in extra time in the final.
    After suffering an injury inside the opening 16 minutes against France, he was forced to watch from the sidelines.
    Yet the Portugal captain became a cheerleader, and helped coach his team-mates to the historic victory.
    He matched Michel Platini’s record of nine goals by the end of Euro 2016.
    Euro 2020
    Ronaldo made history again with FIVE goals at Euro 2020, the most of any player at a Euros.
    Yet it was arguably Portugal’s least exciting affair, as they exited in the Round of 16 following a 1-0 defeat to Belgium.
    With his goals in this tournament, Ronaldo became the top goalscorer at the European Championship with 14 goals.

    The former Manchester United and Real Madrid man has treated his body like a temple throughout his career.Although he’s no longer at the peak of his powers, Ronaldo’s decision to limit his alcohol limit and stick to a clean diet has allowed him to play until the ripe old age of 39.And Father Time has shown no sign of catching up with the Al-Nassr and Portugal skipper.Cristiano Ronaldo is still in tip-top shape at the ripe old age of 39Credit: REX More
