Portugal not just about me, says Ronaldo (Reuters)
By Brian Homewood LYON, France (Reuters) - Cristiano Ronaldo said he is not obsessed by breaking records and believes Portugal have reached the Euro 2016 final thanks to a team effort after they beat Wales in the last four on Wednesday. Ronaldo, Portugal's all-time leading scorer and most-capped international, equaled Frenchman Michel Platini's record of nine goals in European Championship finals after scoring his teams's first in the 2-0 win over the Welsh. "Nobody thought Portugal could get to the final and but we are there, that makes me proud and happy." The three-times world player of the year has been criticized for hogging free kicks and penalties and for remonstrating with team mates when their passes fail to reach him.
