Cristiano Ronaldo sends out defiant message after Portugal's surprise Nations League defeat to Denmark - with CR7 not about to give up on trophy bid

<p>CR7 played the full 90 minutes for his country as they took to the field in UEFA Nations League competition. The 40-year-old frontman found himself on the wrong end of a 1-0 scoreline, and the final outcome could have been worse had <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/diogo-costa-reveals-how-he-saved-christian-eriksen-penalty-chat-cristiano-ronaldo-during-portugal-nations-league-tie-denmark/blt57bb0ac96b992fd2" target="_blank">Manchester United midfielder Christian Eriksen not missed a first-half penalty</a>.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Instead, he is already looking ahead to the second leg of a crunch quarter-final contest on Sunday.
