Tactically with Morocco’s low block Ronaldo makes a lot of sense for Portugal. Target forward that can get on the end of balls

A stiff breeze is enough to knock a Portuguese player down

You aren’t going to get the penalty call when you are waving for the call to be made before you start your embarrassing flip to the ground.

Portugal had no ideas even before the goal, so tough to see them scoring now that Morocco can really pack it in. Obviously we'll see Ronaldo quickly, might even be wise to put Pepe up top because pumping balls into the box is probably their only hope so his aerial advantage can help.

Looking forward to seeing more of this massive, invisible hurricane that keeps bizarrely knocking down all the Portuguese players! Absolutely crazy weather phenomenon, especially at this time of year, for the first time in recorded history, in Qatar.

In my opinion when you need a goal there’s absolutely no one I’d rather have on the field than Ronaldo. For all his faults he’s a killer.

If that chance fell to Ronaldo instead of Ramos this game is tied. Need to see if his teammates can get him some quality service against a super patchwork backline

Can't imagine the social media noise pollution if we get a late Ronaldo equalizer. Morocco just about hanging on, 10 more to go.

Morocco and Portugal are notorious for wasting time. 8 minutes doesnt seem unreasonable.

That seemed a wee bit soft especially since he'd just been booked.

Red will only matter if Portugal score, just waiting on the dubious penalty now.
