Cristiano Ronaldo Jr has made his Portugal national team debut following his father’s footsteps, MySportDab reports.
The youngster was the center of attention during the national team U-15 game against Japan which happened today.
He has been training with the youth team after being called upon. He is eligible to play for another national team if he decides not to push through.
The legendary player’s son can still represent the United States, Spain, and some other nations to which he is tied.
He comes on as a substitute in the 53rd minute with his side already 3-0 ahead against Japan in their opening match.
He did enough to help his side who later won the match by 4 goals to 1. He did not score any of the goals but he did well enough to contribute.
The youngster journey have officially kicked off as he looks to carry on his father legacy in the Portugal shirt.
Cristiano Ronaldo mom was available to support his grandson like he did many years ago with his son when making his debuts.
Jr has a lot on his shoulder which his father was also quick to celebrate him on his social media page saying how proud he feels.
