Ronaldo has announced his international retirement after 23 years but also after a fallout with Portugal coach Jorge Jesus which was resolved with a sanction of 30 days, that had already been served, and a fine of 255 euros.
It was the punishment imposed on the Portuguese striker for leaving the team's training camp without permission. Jesus kept him on the bench for one match and said he did not plan to start him in the next, so Ronaldo went home.
His last appearance came on 24 September against Wales. He ends his international career with 146 goals in 234 games.
