Georgian Football Hero Inspired by Ronaldo Meeting

Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, the hero of Georgia’s historic win against Portugal, revealed that a pre-match meeting with Cristiano Ronaldo inspired belief in his team’s abilities. The victory secured Georgia’s qualification for the round of 16 of Euro 2024.

Georgia’s 2-0 victory over Euro 2016 winners Portugal was a historic moment for Georgian football fans. Kvaratskhelia, who received Ronaldo’s jersey, expressed his admiration for the Portuguese star and the impact of their meeting on his team’s performance.

For Kvaratskhelia, winning with his national team and making history was the best day of his life, even more meaningful than his previous club achievements in Serie A with Napoli. The emotional victory marked the realization of his dreams and left him feeling incredibly proud and happy.

Coach Willy Sagnol shared his disbelief at Georgia’s qualification, recalling past football moments like Manchester United’s 1999 Champions League final comeback as he anxiously watched the match against Portugal unfold. Despite their doubts, the team’s success proved that football is unpredictable and full of surprises.

Portugal’s coach, Roberto Martínez, acknowledged Georgia’s strong performance and the significance of the match for their opponents. While Portugal had already secured their place in the next round, the loss highlighted the importance of maintaining intensity and focus in every game. As they prepare to face Slovenia, key players like Rúben Dias, Bernardo Silva, and Bruno Fernandes are expected to return to the lineup.
