An unrecorded goal against the Serbs infuriated Ronaldo The referees did not see the ball cross the goal line after the Portugal captain's kick Portugal national football team striker Cristiano Ronaldo reacted emotionally to the decision of the judges not to count his goal against the Serbs in the match of the 2022 World Cup qualifying tournament. In the third minute added to the second half, with the score 2:2, Ronaldo shot from outside the penalty area, the ball flew into the net, but the Serbian defender knocked it off the goal line. Video replays showed that the ball crossed the goal line, which Ronaldo immediately signaled to the side referee. However, the referees did not record the goal, and the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) system was not used for the match. For arguing with the referees, Ronaldo received a yellow card, and after the final whistle, in anger, threw the captain's armband on the field and went to the back room, actively demonstrating his dissatisfaction.
