Robin Gosens was the best player on the pitch as Germany destroyed Portugal 4-2 in Munich, with a goal and three assists to his name.
While the three points were the most important objective for the German side, Gosens also managed to exact some revenge on Portugal superstar Cristiano Ronaldo.
The Atalanta full-back, after the game, revealed how he had asked for Ronaldo's shirt after facing Juventus in Serie A, only to be shunned by the former Real Madrid man.
"After the game against Juventus, I wanted to fulfil my dream of getting Cristiano Ronaldo's shirt," he said in the post-match press conference.
"After the final whistle, I went up to him, I didn't even go to the fans to celebrate.
"I asked him: 'Cristiano, can we swap shirts?' He didn't even look at me and just said no.
"I was totally red [faced] and embarrassed. You know that moment when something embarrassing happens to you and you look to see if someone has noticed? I felt like that and tried to hide."
The story spread across the Atalanta dressing room and, in the end, his teammates bought him a Ronaldo shirt as a joke.
However, it was Gosens who had the last laugh after his display against Portugal, as he did not ask for Ronaldo's shirt after the game.
"This time I didn't ask for his shirt," he said.

Ronaldo is a star but that petty side of him is one that cannot be overlooked. Man acts like a child a lot of times.

Acts like a child? Lmao. Juve lost a cup game 3: 0 and got knocked out and you expect him to be in a good mood to exchange shirts ? Why didn't Messi exchange shirts with Davies when Barca got thrashed by Bayern 8 : 2 ? Or was he also being "Petty and acting like a child" ? π

even if thats the case he should have told Gosen that he wanted to give the shirt to someone else and politely decline
It was not against Portugal vs Germany, it was against Juventus vs Atalanta

when Bayern vs barca happened, just a week or so back neymar swapped his shirt with another player and he was coming under fire by UEFA, so that's why Messi refused to swap his shirt because this was just 1-2 months from when football restarted, so there were restrictions
