Ronaldo, who won his third trophy with Portugal after the 2016 UEFA Euro and the 2021 edition of the Nations League, looked emotional at the end of the final against Spain and embraced Roberto Martinez after the match in celebration while celebrating with the Portugal supporters.

Portugal’s win in the 2025 UEFA Nations League marks Ronaldo’s third major international title. He previously led Portugal to victory in the 2016 European Championship and the first UEFA Nations League in 2019.

Cristiano Ronaldo, 40, continues to prove the doubters wrong, having recently lifted the UEFA Nations League trophy with Portugal. He has now won the tournament twice, making it three trophies for his country (also Euro 2016).
