There's likely no reason to hit the panic button yet, particularly as Ronaldo didn't appear overly concerned while sitting on the bench at the end of the match, which France went on to win 2-1.
However, until the extent of the injury is confirmed, there will inevitably be a great deal of speculation regarding the status of Ronaldo's knee.
