Zlatan Slams Ronaldo: "Ego Holding the Team Hostage"

Zlatan Ibrahimovic criticized Portugal for relying on 41-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo, saying his "ego is holding the team hostage" and he has lost mobility. Ibra argued Goncalo Ramos deserves to start. This follows Portugal's 2-1 win over Croatia, where Ronaldo scored a penalty, his first-ever World Cup knockout goal. Portugal faces Spain next in the Round of 16.
