Portuguese team won the UEFA Nations League championship in early June, and Ronaldo scored goals in the semi-finals and finals. Former French international Gala said that Ronaldo still has a chance to play next year's World Cup.

Gala said: "Royce will play in the World Cup next summer, and no matter what the final path is, it will be an emotional experience. Although Ronaldo may not enter the starting lineup of Portugal, he can still play as a substitute.

"This Portugal team looks strong, but it will be extremely difficult for Ronaldo to realize his dream and will end in tears. ”
