In the World Cup, which will take place only in the summer of 2026, we may not see Cristiano Ronaldo in the first few matches.

The Portuguese football legend received a red card for unsporting behavior in the match against Ireland.

It has been reported that FIFA is considering whether to extend C. Ronaldo's suspension to three official matches. If this happens, the Portuguese player would miss the first two matches of the World Cup.

The forward has been handed a one-match suspension, meaning he will not play in the home match against the Armenian national team. If they win this match, the Portuguese team will secure a place in the world championship.
