CRISTIANO RONALDO is looking to fire Portugal to World Cup glory in Qatar.
The Portugal ace and his team-mates are up against Uruguay in the group stages tonight, hoping to progress to the next round.
Why does Cristiano Ronaldo always wear long sleeve shirts?
YOU may have noticed that you've very rarely seen CR7 wear a short-sleeved shirt.
And that's because for around the last decade, Cristiano Ronaldo has worn nothing but his now signature long-sleeves.
Through most of his time with Manchester United and then Real Madrid, the Portuguese star has stuck to this - except for a few rare occasions.
No one is completely sure whether it is superstition, a fashion statement or simply the jersey he feels most comfortable in.
But brand Ronaldo does have a certain 'look' - and this includes the long-sleeve shirt.
Potentially the turning point could've been the painful Euro 2004 and World Cup 2006 campaigns, both of which ended with Ronaldo in tears on the pitch.
He wore short-sleeves in the next two international tournaments, which were a failure - before making the switch for Euro 2012, where Portugal once again crashed out in a semi-final.
In Portugal's Euro 2020 game against Germany however, Cristiano Ronaldo decided to break with tradition.
Eagle-eyed viewers will have noticed the five-time Ballon d'Or winner wearing a long sleeve shirt in the first half and a short sleeve shirt in the second half.
However, it was over 30 degrees in Munich that day so his choice of clothing seemed understandable.
Whether it is superstition or fashion, Ronaldo's legend continues to grow thanks to his incredible exploits on the pitch.
