Unused Portugal substitute Goncalo Ramos was left limping after an unexpected slide tackle by a steward. The Paris Saint-Germain striker remained on the bench during Portugal’s 3-0 win over Turkey, which secured their place in the knockout stages of Euro 2024. As Ramos walked onto the pitch to congratulate his teammates, he was abruptly taken out by a steward.

The steward, seemingly rushing to assist a colleague with a pitch invader, accidentally collided with Ramos. The incident left Ramos hobbling away while Portugal’s star, Cristiano Ronaldo, looked on in bewilderment. Ronaldo, ambling off the pitch, witnessed the collision firsthand, as did Bruno Fernandes, Portugal’s second scorer. Both players appeared equally shocked by the steward’s unexpected tackle. Viewers quickly reacted on social media.

One fan commented, “I shouldn’t laugh because he might have gotten injured, but that was funny. Did the referee book him by any chance?” Another joked, “Got the ball, ref,” while a third wrote, “Looked like it hurt that one.” Fortunately, it seems Ramos was not seriously injured, aside from a potential bruise to his pride.
