Ronaldo left out of Portugal squad

Agen Bola Terpercaya Cityholidaybet Reported - Portugal boss Paulo Bento has left star man Cristiano Ronaldo out of his squad for the start of the country's Euro 2016 qualification campaign due to ongoing concerns over the forward's fitness. The Real Madrid ace was plagued by thigh and knee problems at the tail end of last season and during this summer's World Cup in Brazil - but the 29-year-old played all 90 minutes of Monday's Liga opener against Cordoba, even netting in the dying seconds with a sensational long-range strike. However, Bento has decided against calling upon the Ballon d'Or holder for the Group I clash with Albania on September 7. "There's a question over his fitness," Bento is quoted as saying by Marca. "Regardless of having played regularly, he can't compete."
