Georgina Rodriguez Gets Caught Up in Fan War Between Portugal & Georgia as Cristiano Ronaldo Marks Another Record at 2024 Euros

Portugal will look to end things on a high as Cristiano Ronaldo and his side take on Georgia in their final group stage fixture. The team has already punched their ticket to the Round of 16 thanks to their consecutive wins over Czechia and Turkiye. While Cr7 has been a little out of touch this summer, the player will be extra motivated to perform tonight with his girlfriend Georgina Rodriguez and his children in- attendance for the game.

Georgina Rodriguez rocked up to Portugal’s clash with the influencer donning Cristiano Ronaldo’s jersey to support the team. However, the Spaniard was in for an interesting surprise as she was treated to both sets of fans chanting her name outside the stadium. Georgina took to her Instagram handle to share a photo of two fans from Portugal and Georgia, both wearing their respective country kits with Georgina Rodriguez’s name behind them.

One Portugal supporter had an interesting banner, as they claimed Georgina was bigger than Georgia! Meanwhile, despite failing to make the most of his night, Cristiano Ronaldo etched his name in history with the Portuguese skipper breaking yet another record during the Euros.

Cristiano Ronaldo reaches elusive milestone following appearance against Georgia

The Al Nassr skipper made history, the moment he stepped onto the field tonight as he became the first European player to make 50 appearances during major tournaments. Over his decorated career, Cristiano Ronaldo has represented his nation across multiple tournaments.

Tallying his appearances during the World Cups, Euros, and Nations League makes him the only European star with 50 major international outings. Fans were on top of their voice to support the player as he thanked them for their support.

Meanwhile, Portugal’s aim to finish unbeaten in the tournament received a massive blow at the hands of Georgia. Roberto Martinez’s side was hit with an early setback with Khvicha Kvaratskhelia finding the back of the net in the 2nd minute of the contest. While Portugal tried their best to get the goal back, Antonio Silva made a rash foul on Lochoshvii that saw Georgia awarded a penalty. Georges Mikautadze made no mistake converting the spot kick in the 57th minute to double his team’s lead.

With the game out of their hands, Roberto Martinez quickly subbed off his key players with Cristiano Ronaldo taken out for Goncalo Ramos in the 66th minute. It will be interesting to see how Portugal bounces back from the defeat as they prepare for their unnamed opponents in the Round of 16.
