Portugal 5-2 Denmark (agg: 5-3): Cristiano Ronaldo scores and misses penalty in thriller

Portugal booked their place in the UEFA Nations League semi-finals with a dramatic 5-3 aggregate victory over Denmark after extra time.

Cristiano Ronaldo was at the center of the action, scoring once but also missing a penalty in a thrilling encounter.

Denmark initially fought back after a Joachim Andersen own goal and a disallowed Ronaldo strike, with Rasmus Kristensen and Christian Eriksen scoring to put them on course for the last four.

However, Francisco Trincao's late equalizer forced extra time before he and Goncalo Ramos sealed Portugal’s win.

Despite Schmeichel's heroics in goal, saving Ronaldo’s early penalty and multiple shots, Portugal’s persistence paid off.

Substitute Ramos capped the victory in extra time, converting a Diogo Jota assist to set up a semi-final clash with Germany.
