During Portugal’s Euro 2024 last-16 match against Slovenia, Cristiano Ronaldo’s heart rate reached its lowest point just before he took Portugal’s first penalty in the shootout, as revealed by new data.
Portugal secured their spot in the quarter-finals after goalkeeper Diogo Costa’s outstanding performance in the penalty shootout. Earlier in the match, they had a chance to take the lead in extra time with a penalty awarded after Diogo Jota was fouled in the box.
Ronaldo initially missed his penalty during regulation time, failing to score his first goal of the tournament against Slovenia’s goalkeeper Jan Oblak. However, he redeemed himself by stepping up to take Portugal’s first penalty in the shootout and successfully converting it.
WHOOP data showed that Ronaldo’s heart rate was approximately 100 beats per minute (bpm), the lowest recorded during the night. His heart rate spiked dramatically to over 170 bpm just before Bernardo Silva’s decisive penalty, which sealed victory for Roberto Martinez’s side.
Throughout the match, Ronaldo wore the WHOOP 4.0 strap under wrist strapping, a routine he typically follows during games.
