A day after leaving the 2022 World Cup in tears as his chances to win the tournament for the first time in his career were shattered, Portugal superstar striker Cristiano Ronaldo said bringing a World Cup title to Portugal was “the biggest and most ambitious dream” of his career but “the dream was beautiful while it lasted.” Portugal was shocked 1-0 by Morocco in the quarterfinals on Saturday.

Pelé wrote, “Thank you for making us smile, my friend.
