European Championship: By Rob Harris The Associated Press Sat., June 18, 2016 PARIS—Cristiano Ronaldo experienced a night to forget on his record 128th Portugal appearance Saturday, missing a late penalty in a 0-0 draw against Austria that left his team winless after two matches at the European Championship, according to The Toronto Star. As goalkeeper Robert Almer dived to his left, Ronaldo struck the spotkick in the opposite direction but it crashed against the post in the 79th minute. Instead, Portugal settled for its second straight draw. Ronaldo then thought he had netted his 59th Portugal goal about five minutes later, but it was ruled out for offside. If his team struggles again in its final Group F game against Hungary, Portugal could be going home early after also drawing its opening game against Iceland. It summed up a frustrating night at the Parc des Princes for the Portugal captain, who is still waiting to score in a record fourth European Championship.
