It took until the 54th minute for the first goal in the Group H clash between Portugal and Uruguay. Then Raphael Guerreiro’s candidacy was received by Bruno Fernandes, he played with the defenders and from behind the penalty area he sent a cross just under Sergio Rochet’s goal. Cristiano, running in the sixteenth, jumped on the ball Ronaldonodded and after a while the ball was in the net.

All because of the tokens. Cristiano Ronaldo without a second goal at the World Cup in Qatar

The five-time Ballon d’Or has already celebrated his second goal in the current edition of the World Cup, this has already been confirmed by the producer transmissionwhen suddenly it turned out that FIFA changed its decision and scored the goal of Bruno Fernandes. Why did this happen? It turns out that Ronaldo just didn’t touch the ball in the world.

The situation was explained on Twitter by former soccer referee Eduardo Iturralde. His entry shows that FIFA is confident in the correctness of this decision. Was that Ronaldo’s goal? In this edition of the World Cup, the balls have a special chip, and even the smallest contact of the player with the ball is immediately visible in the statistical computers. So if FIFA didn’t recognize Cristiano, it’s probably because there was no contact.”

Without him, this goal would not have happened at all. Cristiano Ronaldo has his merits

Nevertheless, it must be admitted that without Cristiano Ronaldo the goal would not have been scored. Fernandes’ cross wouldn’t have caused the keeper any problems in a normal situation. However, the Portuguese striker’s leap confused the Uruguayan so much that he was surprised and delayed his intervention. The goal is largely thanks to Ronaldo.

Bruno Fernandes was luckier that day. Not only did he score the first goal, but he also added a second. Assistant Manchester United converted a penalty into a handball in Jose Maria Gimenez’s penalty area. In a normal situation it would go to eleven Cristiano Ronaldo, but in extra time (then the second goal was scored) he was no longer on the field. Before that, he was replaced by Goncalo Ramos. Fernandes could have scored at least a hat-trick in this match, but his shot was first saved by the Uruguay keeper, and in the next action the 28-year-old hit the post.
