John Terry slammed the BBC for its 'disgraceful' caption poking fun at Cristiano Ronaldo for missing his penalty.

Ronaldo missed a spot kick in extra-time that would have sent Portugal through to the quarter-finals of Euro 2024.

Portgual goalkeeper Diogo Costa then saved all three of Slovenia's opening spot-kicks, with Ronaldo making amending by converting his.

Bernardo Silva slotted in the winning penalty to secure a quarter-final against France in Hamburg on Friday.

Terry and Ronaldo may have been old adversaries from their days at Chelsea and Manchester United, and also at international level.

But the former England centre-back knows all too well at just how cruel missing a penalty can feel.

In the 2008 Champions League final against Manchester United, he missed his spot kick in the shootout when he slipped just before taking it.

Ronaldo himself admitted he was at 'rock bottom' when he missed that extra-time penalty against Slovenia.

"Even the strongest people have their [bad] days. I was at rock bottom when the team needed me the most," said Ronaldo.

"Sadness at the start is joy at the end. That's what football is. Moments, inexplicable moments. I feel sad and happy at the same time.

"But the important thing is to enjoy it. The team did an extraordinary job. We fought right to the end and I think we deserved it because we had more authority."

There will be more chances for Ronaldo to make amends with Portugal still alive in the competition.
