Does anyone know why Cristiano Ronaldo started all Portugal matches while he's clearly struggling? I've heard theories about the federation making more money with sponsors if he plays, is this true? (sopuli.xyz)

Interesting, thanks.

Pepe did much better performance, and Jota might have been a better starter for Portugal. CR as a super sub (think Muller for Germany) could have been an option
