2026 World Cup: 'No plan to stop Ronaldo, he's not the same' - DR Congo's Mukau

DR Congo midfielder Ngal Ayel Mukau admitted there was no special tactical plan to contain Cristiano Ronaldo in their 2026 World Cup opener. The Leopards held Portugal to a 1-1 draw on Wednesday, with Yohan Wissa's header canceling Joao Neves' goal. Mukau said Ronaldo is not the same as before due to age but remains one of the greatest. His comments come amid calls from fans and pundits for Ronaldo to have limited playing time in the national team.
