Going on to miss a chance after Mitrovic’s goal, Cristiano Ronaldo sunk to the grass in tears on the final whistle, similarly to his reaction when he was sent off on his Champions League debut for Juventus at Valencia in 2018.

Portugal are now in the playoffs, along with Sweden, Wales, Switzerland or Italy, Finland or Ukraine, Scotland, one of Turkey, Norway or the Netherlands, as well as Russia, Poland or England, and North Macedonia or Romania.

This makes it more challenging for the 2016 European champions to qualify for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar
