In the first game Cristiano Ronaldo don’t score, and all the pundits and Portoguese fans thought the sky was falling .
Well calm had been restored . El Capitan scored a brace in a easy 5-0 win vs Uzbekistan and sets up a potential match, for first place vs Colombia in their last group match on June 27.
After a quiet tournament-opening performance, Ronaldo had 33 touches and seven shots (five on target) against Uzbekistan. Portugal once again dominated ball possession (66%), but Roberto Martinez’s men were more efficient this time, finishing the day with 16 shots.
The ageless wonder is the only player to score at 6 different World Cups. No other Portoguese player has more goals then Ronaldo’s 10 World Cup goals all time. He is also the youngest and oldest player to score for Portugal all time .
In a tournament with so many superstars delivering consistently, Ronaldo’s listless outing last week made things feel somewhat incomplete. But he’s officially arrived in North America, and he did it in grand style.
