PFT CommenterPortugal was a better soccer team without Cristiano Ronaldo in the Euro 2016 Final
I'm going to go with hurt because he actually made the team better. I think the question has to be asked now, like, was Cristiano Ronaldo actually holding Portugal back? So better team without him. Kind of like the whole Steph Curry situation where the boys, the lads on the pitch just really opened up the game and the spacing was better.
Portugal did win the final after Ronaldo went off injured, but most experts would disagree that they were better without him.
