Cristiano Ronaldo stole the headlines once again as Portugal cruised through Group F at Euro 2024 after beating Turkey 3-0 last night.

The superstar is still waiting for his first goal in Germany but unselfishly squared to Bruno Fernandes for his country's third of the evening. There were still hints of histrionics, however, with his team-mates producing the game's biggest moments.

In the build-up to Portugal's second goal, Ronaldo was spotted throwing his arms up in frustration after Joao Cancelo misread his run, only for Samet Akaydin's poor back pass to roll beyond goalkeeper Altay Bayindir and into the back of the net.

Ronaldo was pestered for selfies by a number of pitch invaders in Dortmund and remains his nation's talisman - but do they need him any longer?

Mail Sport's Ian Ladyman has posed the question of whether or not Ronaldo is deserving of his place or if Portugal are simply too scared to say no to him on the latest episode of It's All Kicking Off - released daily during the tournament.

Judging from our interviews with Portugal supporters, there is only one answer.
