Cristiano Ronaldo became the first player to be crowned champion in England, Spain and Italy after Juventus were confirmed as Italian title-winners for an 8^th consecutive season. As Ronaldo and João Cancelo celebrated their success, fellow Portuguese duo Vieirinha and Sérgio Oliveira took to the field on Sunday to wrap up PAOK’s Greek Super League title with a 5-0 hammering of Levadiakos.

There were also plenty of Portuguese goals across the globe, with man of the moment Gonçalo Guedes continuing his blistering run of form with a brace for Valencia in Spain. Bruno Alves scored a vintage free-kick to earn Parma a draw with Milan, while there was a debut for 16-year-old Pedro Brazão in France and Marco Silva’s Everton put four past Manchester United.

Two of Portugal’s biggest stars came to the fore in the Champions League this week, scoring huge goals for their teams as the semi-final line-up was concluded. However, for both Cristiano Ronaldo and Bernardo Silva their goals were in vain as Juventus and Manchester City both crashed out against their unfavoured opposition.

Ronaldo repeated his goalscoring form from the first leg to give Juventus the lead against Ajax in Turin, but the Dutch giants stormed back to claim a 2-1 win to progress 3-2 on aggregate on Tuesday. The following night saw a remarkable game in which hosts City and Tottenham Hotspur exchanged four goals in the first eleven minutes leading to a 4-3 win for Bernardo’s side, but they exit the competition on away goals.

Without doubt one the most eye-catching results in Europe this week was Lille’s 5-1 victory over Paris Saint-Germain in France.José Fonte scored for the second match running as Lille recorded a memorable win while also taking a firm grip on second place in Ligue 1.

Elsewhere, Gonçalo Guedes continues to excite with Valencia in Spain with a goal and an assist as they beat Levante 3-1. In Germany, Eintracht Frankfurt were beaten 3-1 by Augsburg ahead of their clash with Benfica, but Gonçalo Paciência was on target. On the coaching front, Paulo Sousa tasted defeat for the first time with Bordeaux, while there was a big win for Jose Gomes and Reading in England.

This week’s Champions League quarter final first legs provided plenty of Portuguese involvement, with Cristiano Ronaldo and João Cancelo leading the big stories during Juventus’ 1-1 draw with Ajax in Amsterdam. Ronaldo scored Juve’s goal, provided by Cancelo, but the defender later lost possession ahead of the Dutch side’s equaliser as the tie remains in the balance.

Meanwhile in Manchester, Portuguese full-backs Diogo Dalot and Nélson Semedo faced off as representatives for Manchester United and Barcelona respectively, with the Spanish champions edging the match 1-0. Bernardo Silva missed out on the action, however, with injury ruling him out of Manchester City’s 1-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur.
