Georgia forward, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, has revealed the conversation he had with Cristiano Ronaldo, before their famous 2-0 win over Portugal at Euro 2024 on Wednesday night.

Georgia progressed into the knockout stages in their first major tournament thanks to the result.

After the match, Kvaratskhelia swapped shirts with Ronaldo and posted them on social media alongside the Man of the Match award.

“Before the match there was a meeting [with Ronaldo] and he wished me success; I’d never imagine he would come and talk to me.

“He’s a great player and a great person. That’s why he’s a great personality in and out of football; I have so much respect for him, he’s one of the best players in the world.

“When he comes to talk to you before the match, that’s amazing; that helped us believe we could do something today,” Kvaratskhelia said.
