The serving of the two remaining matches has been suspended under a one-year probation period.

If Cristiano Ronaldo commits another infringement of a similar nature and gravity during the probationary period, the suspension set out in the disciplinary decision shall be deemed automatically revoked

and the two remaining matches must be served immediately at the next official matches of the Portuguese representative team.

So basically, he served the one-game suspension, the mandatory one-game suspension for a red card against Armenia, the next game that Portugal had.

However, they've deemed that it should be three-match ban, but they have suspended those two remaining games, which just so happen to be the World Cup opening games for Portugal.

Is that a concern for you?

Do you have any issue with it, Marielle?

But we do want to see Cristiano Ronaldo in the World Cup, in Portugal's games, don't we?

I don't know, do we?

The BBC are reporting that the fact it was the first red card in 226 international appearances was taken into account.

He's a big star, isn't he?
