Portugal is a star-studded team, probably one of the top five at national team level. However, the highlight of the Mexico match will be Cristiano Ronaldo. It was a dream for Mexican fans and FMF leaders to have their top scorer present at the reopening of the iconic stadium. A dream that continues to be lost due to CR7’s injury<\/p>\n

Cristiano called up for Portugal vs. Mexico<\/h2>\n

But then the problem with Cristiano came up. Cristiano was injured in the match against Al Nasr at the end of February and is doubtful for the game against Mazatl\u00e1n at the renamed Estadio Banorte.<\/p>\n

Additionally, the contract with the Portuguese Football Federation requires the presence of CR7 in line with FIFA commitments, and it is speculated that this may be fulfilled, although not in the best form expected.<\/p>\n

According to Al Riyadh, the Portuguese national team has called up Cristiano Ronaldo and Joao F\u00e9lix from Al Nasr, “However, Ronaldo’s participation will be decided once the final medical report regarding his injury is released.”<\/p>\n

Cristiano Ronaldo goes to Mexico for the first time<\/h2>\n

This will be Cristiano Ronaldo’s first time playing in Mexico, but it remains to be seen whether he will get minutes for the Azteca in case he is called up to play against El Tri or the United States. Initially, his injuries were thought to be minor, but research revealed that the injuries were more serious than previously thought. Still, with Ronaldo potentially available for the next FIFA dates, there is still hope to see the legendary player appear at the legendary stadium that has hosted two World Cups and is looking forward to a third.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
