“I was in the service of the national team, as always, body and soul, even though my two sons were born. Unfortunately, we couldn’t reach our main sporting objective, but I am certain we will continue to make the Portuguese people happy,” he wrote.

“The president of the Portuguese Football Federation and the national team manager were considerate towards me and it is something which I will never forget. I am very happy to finally be with my children for the first time,” Ronaldo added.

Although Portugal slumped to a semi-final defeat to Chile on penalties, they are due to play in the third-place playoff against either Germany or Mexico.
