The Portugal star will feature in his third final with his nation and the superstar has his sight set on victory over the Netherlands
Cristiano Ronaldo is eyeing a second international title with Portugal as the Euro 2016 champions prepare for the Nations League final against Netherlands.
"When I pull on the shirt of the national team, it's a huge honour for me and it's a different feeling than it is playing for clubs," Ronaldo told UEFA.com.
"It's our country: my family is Portuguese, my friends too. I grew up in Portugal, so it's special to put on the shirt of the national team. And obviously, the chance to fight for trophies makes it even more special – like it was in Euro 2004 and Euro 2016, and how this competition will be now.
"Three finals and I hope to win two of the three. That would be fantastic and I have hope − so does the team. We are positive; we are playing at home.
"I hope the stadium will be great, that there will be good energy, that this energy will be transmitted to us, and that everyone can be confident, because we will try to give our best. Together, we can become champions."

Although you are 34 years old, you are still the most deadly weapon in Portugal. You are still eager to win the championship like an 18-year-old. This is why we love you.

Playing for the motherland is always the highest honor of a professional athlete, and winning the championship is even better.
