Fresh off scoring the decisive goal that sent Portugal to the UEFA Nations League 2025 final, Cristiano Ronaldo showed a softer side that melted hearts across social media. The Portuguese captain celebrated the birthday of his children with a touching post — just a day after making history against Germany.

“Muitos parabéns, meus amores ❤️”

On his official account, Cristiano posted a photo of his children smiling next to Disney’s Daisy Duck, dressed as a queen, accompanied by the caption:
“Hoje é o vosso dia! Muitos parabéns, meus amores ❤️”
(“Today is your day! Happy birthday, my loves ❤️”)

A Historic Goal Against Germany

On the pitch, Ronaldo once again delivered on the big stage. His 68th-minute strike sealed Portugal’s 2-1 victory over Germany in the semifinals — a goal that not only booked their ticket to the final, but also marked Cristiano’s first-ever goal against the Germans at international level.

It was also his 137th goal for Portugal, and with it, he became the oldest player to score against Germany in a major competition, proving that even at 40, he remains a force to be reckoned with.
