Portugal changed the design of the number 7 on the shirts after finishing his career in the national team of long-time captain Cristiano Ronaldo, who competed under this number. The video was published on Instagram (owned by Meta, the company is recognized as extremist and banned in Russia) by the country's football federation.
“It is time to introduce a new seven.” There is another one that will be eternal, the caption says. A line in the middle was added to the figure.
Portugal is unable to withdraw the number from circulation due to FIFA's strict rules regarding numbering on T-shirts.
41-year-old Ronaldo on November 5 announced his retirement from the national team of Portugal. He was captain of the national team for 18 years. In total, the five-time winner of the Golden Ball has 146 goals in 234 matches for the national team.
