Following Portugal’s convincing 2-0 triumph over Liechtenstein, securing their ninth consecutive victory, Cristiano Ronaldo took to Instagram to convey a message to his teammates. The win saw second-half goals from Ronaldo and Joao Cancelo, contributing to Portugal’s formidable record. The team’s last competitive defeat dates back almost a year to the World Cup quarter-final against Morocco.

Despite their recent success, Ronaldo remains cautious, urging his colleagues not to become complacent. The football star posted a series of photos from the match on Instagram with the caption, “Nine wins in a row! We stay focused!”

Portugal’s exceptional form is evident in their qualification for the European Championship finals in Germany next summer. Under the management of Roberto Martinez, who took over from Fernando Santos in January, Portugal has notched up nine consecutive wins in qualifiers, scoring 34 goals and conceding just two. Martinez himself is yet to experience defeat in his new role.

Looking ahead, Portugal aims to conclude their qualifying campaign with a flawless record as they host Iceland in Lisbon on Sunday. As the team sets its sights on the upcoming challenges, 38-year-old Ronaldo begins to contemplate what is likely to be his final international tournament, adding an emotional layer to the team’s continued success.
