World Cup 2022: Real reason coach Santos dropped Ronaldo in Portugal vs Switzerland – Carragher

Former Liverpool defender, Jamie Carragher has claimed Cristiano Ronaldo was benched for Portugal’s last-16 clash with Switzerland because of his performances and not as a result of his reaction to being taken off against South Korea.

Fernando Santos left the 37-year-old out of the starting XI for the game.

Santos’ decision came a day after he made it clear he “didn’t like” Ronaldo’s angry reaction to being taken off in their last game.

Carragher insists the real reason is because Ronaldo is not playing well in Qatar.

He tweeted: “Would Santos the manager of Portugal drop #Ronaldo just because of his reaction to being subbed in the last game? A manager at club level maybe yes. With possibly 3 games to a WC final.

“I think he has been left out because of his performances not his reaction.”
