Portugal 2 Uruguay 0 – World Cup 2022 LIVE RESULT: Fernandes DOUBLE hands Portugal place in last-16
PORTUGAL came out victors against Uruguay and have sealed their place in the knockout stages of the World Cup with the victory.
Cristiano Ronaldo claimed that he netted the opener, running off to celebrate with it unclear as to whether he met Bruno Fernandes’ goal bound cross.
But Fifa officially awarded the goal to Fernandes – who added his second in additional time.
A penalty was given for handball on Jose Gimenez, which appeared to be harsh as the ball struck his hand when he dived in to win the ball.
It was an improved performance by the Uruguayans, who were unlucky not to score after registering several shots on target.
They have it all to do when they face Ghana in their final match of the group stages.
