He couldn't join the party: Cristiano Ronaldo's goal disallowed in Portugal vs. Switzerland.

Portugal's national team crushes Switzerland in the round of 16 of the Qatar 2022 World Cup, and Cristiano Ronaldo, who was a substitute, entered in the final stretch of the second half. The scorer tried to join the celebrations and managed to score, but his goal was disallowed for a clear offside.

'CR7' had been relegated to the bench by Fernando Santos, following the coach's critical comment about the player's gesture when he was replaced during the World Cup. Despite these circumstances, the 37-year-old forward remained calm and celebrated his teammates' goals during the match.

Finally, in the 73rd minute, Cristiano Ronaldo took to the field at the Lusail Iconic Stadium, replacing Joao Félix, with the score 5-1 in favor of the Portuguese. Considering Switzerland's defensive fragility, 'CR7' tried to take advantage of the spaces and increase his goal tally.

Precisely, the experienced player had the opportunity to score the 6-1 by defeating goalkeeper Yann Sommer in a one-on-one situation, but he couldn't celebrate. The sideline referee had a good view to penalize an evident offside, right at the center circle of the field, after William Carvalho's assist.
