☆ Ronaldo leads Portugal against South Korea after injury scare
▼ + stars: | 2022-12-02 | by ( ) www.reuters.com time to read: +2 min

Portugal, needing only a draw to be sure of top spot in Group H and mindful of the risk of yellow-card suspensions in the next round, have brought Diogo Dalot and Antonio Silva into the defence. Matheus Nunes, Vitinha and Joao Mario come into the midfield in place of Bernardo Silva, William Carvalho and Bruno Fernandes -- who scored twice in the 2-0 win over Uruguay -- while Ricardo Horta replaces Joao Felix up front. South Korea's Portuguese coach Paulo Bento left out central defender Kim Min-jae, who was an injury doubt, and replaced him with Kwon Kyung-won, while Lee Jae-sung and Lee Kang-in were drafted into midfield. The Koreans, with one point so far, must beat Portugal and hope the result of Ghana's match with Uruguay goes their way in order to reach the last 16.

☆ Fernandes double fires perfect Portugal through to World Cup last 16

For a Portugal whose World Cup narrative has so far been crafted by the controversy and brilliance of Cristiano Ronaldo, the night belonged to Fernandes, who shone throughout and always looked threatening. The win was the third time at a World Cup that Portugal have won two successive group stage matches, and the previous two times led to streaks into the semi-finals. Fernandes played down talk of his starring role and said his focus was the next match against South Korea and getting a perfect nine points for Portugal. "Our objective is to think match after match and we have to do our best because we obviously want to win all the matches." Portugal were dangerous on the approach and controlled both flanks, with Bernardo Silva, Fernandes and an industrious Joao Felix combining well and each frustrated in their efforts to put Portugal ahead.

A fost al 107-lea său gol la naţională, al 12-lea la EURO şi al treilea la EURO 2020. Jucătorul echipei Atalanta Bergamo a centrat perfect în faţa porţii (51), iar Havertz a reluat simplu din 3 metri. Cristiano Ronaldo a şutat violent din lovitură liberă (54), de la 25 de metri, dar mingea a trecut peste poartă. A fost pentru prima oară când Portugalia a încasat patru goluri într-un meci, de la eşecul suferit în 2014, la Cupa Mondială, 0-4 cu Germania. Ronaldo a marcat în premieră împotriva Germaniei, deşi are nouă goluri înscrise lui Neuer în opt partide la nivel de club.
