The Portuguese national team will honor Cristiano Ronaldo in tonight’s (9:45 p.m.) Nations League match against Denmark.
CR7 announced his retirement from the Portuguese national team a few days ago, while he was suspended for the way he abruptly left during the previous “window” of national team matches following disagreements with Jorge Jesus.

Cristiano ronaldo: All of portugal wears the “7” in his honor
His tenure with the Portuguese national team and his achievements—bringing the Iberians trophies they had never before managed to win— deserve a tribute, and his former teammates are planning just that.
As reported by Sport, Bernardo Silva, Rúben Dias, and Bruno Fernandes spoke with officials from the country’s soccer federation about how they will honor Cristiano.
All the players are expected to take the field before the start of the match against Denmark wearing jerseys with the number 7 on the back, and in the 7th minute, the match will be paused briefly so that everyone can applaud in honor of the Portuguese legend.
