Ronaldo-less Portugal suffer Nations League hammering at hands of Denmark

Portugal suffered a devastating 4-1 defeat to Denmark in their first match without Cristiano Ronaldo during the UEFA Nations League, as the superstar forward retired from international football. Rasmus Hojlund scored twice for Denmark, while Jose Quiroga, Joachim Andersen, and Bernardo Silva added goals to seal the win. Portugal, now in second place in Group A4, only have a three-point lead over third-placed Norway, who they face on Tuesday.

Denmark's clinical performance and nine points from five matches have them on track for a quarter-final spot.
