Fans amused by a shock finale to a 3-0 win as the players walk off

UNUSED Portugal sub Goncalo Ramos was left limping - after a slide tackle when, where and from whom he least expected!

The Paris Saint-Germain striker must already have been frustrated - after remaining on the bench in a 3-0 win over Turkey.

It made Portugal one of the first teams to win their group at Euro 2024 after a second victory in two games.

But as Ramos walked on the pitch to congratulate his team-mates he was cleaned out... by a steward.

And the face of Portugal hero Cristiano Ronaldo said it all.

Al-Nassr star Ron as ambling off as his rival for a place up front strolled into view right on front of him.

Suddenly a member of the security staff dashed across the pitch and upended Ramos.

The steward appeared to be rushing on to help a colleague catch a pitch intruder.

But instead he became one of the first people in Germany this summer to get to grips with Ramos, albeit accidentally.

The ex-Benfica star hobbled away - while Ronaldo surveyed the scene looking bewildered as he tried to comprehend what he had just seen.

Portugal's second scorer Bruno Fernandes appeared equally shocked by Ramos' misfortune - just as viewers were.

One fan posted: " You know, I shouldn't laugh because he might have got injured. But that was funny. Did the referee book him by any chance?"

Another joked: "Got the ball ref."

And a third wrote: "Looked like it hurt that one."

At least it appears Ramos was not seriously hurt - except perhaps for a little damage to his pride.
