Goncalo Ramos’ fiancée, Margarida Amaral Domingues, was in the spotlight after Ramos scored the game-winning goal for Portugal in its World Cup Round of 32 matchup against Croatia on July 2. Portugal secured a 2-1 victory after a dramatic finish that saw Ramos score in the fourth minute of stoppage time.
After falling behind 1-0, Portugal equalized with a Cristiano Ronaldo penalty in the second half. Ramos then scored the decisive goal with a header while closely marked by two defenders. With this victory, Portugal is set to face rival Spain in the Round of 16 on July 6.
Ramos, who plays club soccer for AC Milan, had not been a widely recognized name before this goal, but his performance has now brought him significant attention. As a result, Domingues has also found herself in a new level of public focus.
The couple has been together for a long time and are reportedly planning to marry later this month. They welcomed their son, Bernardo, in June of the previous year. Domingues posted photos on Instagram wearing her fiancé’s jersey prior to Portugal’s World Cup game, with a caption that read, “🇵🇹❤️.”
Domingues expressed her excitement following Ramos' crucial goal, with sources suggesting no one is happier for his rising stardom than her.
