with the 1-0 for portugal vs. ghana just scored by a Cristiano Ronaldo penalty, CR7 is now the first player to score at least 1 goal in 5 world cups - congratz!
~
And now, the referee shows the penalty spot. Ronaldo seems to be taking this opportunity.
Cristiano Ronaldo scored the penalty and created history, first player to score in 5 different World Cups and it is historic. After the two upsets with Argentina and Germany, i am not even confident to place any bets as you never know what will happen. And now, the referee shows the penalty spot. Ronaldo seems to be taking this opportunity.
All the Argentina fans in my hometown is waiting for the Brazil match and they are expecting them to get defeated
. It is a carnival in my hometown with huge bets from Brazil and Argentina fans watching the match under one roof .Edit: Damn Ghana just scored the equalizer, things are getting really interesting.
Edit: Portugal scores again
.Edit: Portugal scores again and now the game is set for them.
0-0 after 1st half between Ghana and Portugal.
We can have another surprise here, Portugal is stronger but was not so dominant here, and Ghana could have a good shot with a counterattack.
The first half Portugal did dominate the match to record 70% ball possession but they did not manage to score a single goal because Ghana was very solid in defense. Ghana only capitalized on the occasional counter-attack if they had the chance to do so through Ayew and Williams.We can have another surprise here, Portugal is stronger but was not so dominant here, and Ghana could have a good shot with a counterattack.
Portugal actually had the opportunity to score in the 27th minute if only Joao Felix had calm. But what happened the ball bounced over the crossbar Ati-Zigi.
Portugal is very optimistic to score in this match, if the referee did not consider the offense in the 30th minute when Cristiano Ronaldo scored.

In my estimation, I would say that I expected the Ghana to performed the way they have played so far. Although Portugal has more experienced players and have created a lot of chances, I will say it has been a fairly contested game. I just wish that the Ghanian team will pay more attention to their defence in the second half. Also I need to see more aggression from them. I expect Ghana to be the first African team to break the jinx of a win.We can have another surprise here, Portugal is stronger but was not so dominant here, and Ghana could have a good shot with a counterattack.
IMO, Portugal will find it difficult to score goals if their team-mates only rely on Ronaldo. and it can be seen, every attack that is built by Portugal is always looking for Ronaldo. in the end, Portugal always had difficulty maximizing opportunities, even though the ball possession was far dominated by Portugal.
in the first half, Benardo Silva really didn't contribute much. I like what Fernando Santos did, with a very effective 4-3-1-2 formation. but unfortunately they could not maximize the chances to be converted into goals. Santos should not always focus only on Ronaldo. if Fenando Santos doesn't change his strategy, I'm sure this fight will end in a draw.
On the other hand, Ghana put up no resistance at all. even Ghana did not have the chance and opportunity at all to threaten Portugal's defense. However, on the other hand, Ghana's defense is very disciplined and strong. until the second half was still rolling, not a single goal was created.
Note : I just finished this post. however, Portugal benefited from the penalty spot, and Ronaldo scored his first goal in this world cup.

Don't tell Cristiano Ronaldo, he thinks Portugal will win the World Cup
clear that if she suffers so much with Ghana, I don't see her as a possible winner
I see Spain very well at this point
The second half had just started, Portugal was still actively carrying out attacks, Ghana, which was not favored in this game, was still able to frustrate Ronaldo in looking for goals. Ronaldo must be able to perform well to take Portugal further in the world cup to interest the club to sign him now that he is without a club after parting ways with Manchester United.
Today, Ghana is playing completely defensively. The first half is over. Ghana's players did not attempt any attack. They are focused on keeping their defense strong. Portugal's players made several good attacks, and even Cristiano Ronaldo scored a goal, but the goal was disallowed. Portugal is playing well. But there is nothing surprising if the match is a draw. Because the performance of Ghana's defenders and goalkeepers today is excellent.
Yes, Ghana plays the classic bunker game. It may not be pretty or attractive to look at, but I can't really blame them for sticking with it. At least it works for them, right? At least, it works when you're playing against a team like Portugal. It's not like the Black Stars are playing a team full of slick dribblers who can cut through their lines with ease. Ghana did an excellent job of keeping Portugal's offense from finding any openings. The African side was also able to get some good shots on goal themselves, which is more than I can say for most teams playing against Ronaldo & Co.

Well if Cristiano Ronaldo thinks Portugal will win the world cup but Lionel Messi thinks that Argentina will win the world cup, so whom do we believe
Regardless of these statements, Saudi Arabia won a big game and everyone seems to be talking about this match. I came to see this picture on social media where the players are thankful to God for this win. Really emotional heart catching moments.
I think games all the involving the African teams have been all under 2.5goals and am not shocked to see Portugal go into the first half without scoring a goal. My observation in this world cup so far is that African teams are quite alot tougher to score even if non have scored yet and since the world cup is full of surprises Portugal should not be expecting an easy win.
My predictions on my coupon is going well if it continues like this. Due to my observation of how the game with African teams have always ended. I decided to play the match an under 2.5 goals and currently it's going well for me

Well, the goal scored by Cristiano was probably a regular goal and the referee used the whistle too early.
So far besides Spain, I can't see an above-average team.

I hope Portugal's match against Ghana does not go the way Saudi Arabia's 2:1 victory did, even with Messi present. According to the stats, Portugal has never been flagged for a yellow card, and Ghana is doing an excellent job of defending Portugal while Ronaldo is trying to score, but the score remains 0:0. The performance of Portugal's Ronaldo, who is doing his very best as a striker to score, suggests that Portugal has a good chance of winning this game.

I'm currently watching the match between Portugal and Ghana, which is almost halfway over, but neither of them have scored a single goal. And I think Portugal and Ghana will both try to score in the second half later in order to get a win because the other two teams (Uruguay and South Korea) in Group H who also played today ended in a draw. So it will be very interesting if one of the teams is able to win today in Group H, be it Portugal or Ghana.
The group is more fascinating than I had anticipated. I believe that a goalless draw between Uruguay and South Korea will strengthen Portugal's motivation to win this match, as they are more likely to win than Ghana. With the way the game has gone thus far, if no team converts chances in the second half, it will be difficult to determine who will advance from this group to the next round.
Only one word is suitable for the Spanish national team, "They are amazing". Then what about today's match, are you also going to make a bet? Because today I see there are three matches that might be very interesting to watch, such as Switzerland vs Cameroon, Uruguay vs South Korea and Portugal vs Ghana.
Of the three matches I mentioned, which match do you think will be the most exciting to look forward to today? although I also don't want to make a bet today because I remember that there were already two big national teams (Argentina and Germany) that were defeated by regular national teams (Saudi Arabia and Japan) in this world cup.
for now many are afraid to bet because of the surprises that occurred in the match between Argentina against Saudi Arabia and also Germany against Japan, it was really unexpected and many people lost their money, including me.Of the three matches I mentioned, which match do you think will be the most exciting to look forward to today? although I also don't want to make a bet today because I remember that there were already two big national teams (Argentina and Germany) that were defeated by regular national teams (Saudi Arabia and Japan) in this world cup.
so I think it's only natural that you don't bet now.
but I don't think so, indeed many unexpected things happen in football and still betting on our favorite team makes it possible to win or return lost money
Switzerland has won the match 1 goal, it was enough for them to secure 3 points in the opening game.
Meanwhile, Uruguay, which is the seed, also failed to win the match. It's a shame even though they played very well, their front line was quite the highlight in this match, especially Darwin Nunez, who performed very badly.
and the match between Portugal and Ghana is taking place now, so far the match is still quite tight and balanced, in this match I bet on under goals, so far my betting book is still quite safe because the two teams are not playing insistently and not many opportunities are happening so enough allows for not many goals to occur in this match.

Guys can we talk about the OneLove armbands for a moment?
Yeah everyone knows that Qatar does not like LGBT rights and all that... but why is FIFA sanctioning the armband ban. And they have went to the point of fining and suspending players who wear it. I hear Germany is in hot water over this.
As a football body, they are supposed to remain neutral.

So we come back to discussion we had some time ago - is Ronaldo able to win the Cup? It is 5th time he is trying to do it. Did the latest problems with club have any impact on him? At the end he is "unemployed"
Portugal will win IMHO, but the more important is what will be their style of game. I have impression that we still do not know how good the team is, as this year they did not have very difficult opponents.
I didn't expect any of the drama between Ronaldo and Manchester United to affect him in his country side. Ronaldo is Portugal and his got his heart for his nation, always spirited and both team with nation adorns him as such. Besides, this is the world cup and some trophy that has eluded him so far even after haven't gone for it 4 different times. This is his fifth and probably his last and so far, his been making the most of it. His play has been phenomenal, gotten a chance to get his goal with a run right into the middle of the black stars backline to get the ball but, the goalkeeper stepped up and was just in time to prevent Ronaldo from being cheered. Portugal will win IMHO, but the more important is what will be their style of game. I have impression that we still do not know how good the team is, as this year they did not have very difficult opponents.
The first half of the football match between Portugal and Ghana has already ended. At the end of the first half, both teams went back to the pavilion with a goalless score. But today, Ghana is playing a completely defensive game. Cristiano Ronaldo had three chances, one of which he converted, and the referee later confirmed that it was a foul that later canceled out Ronaldo's goal. However, we do not expect two more opportunities from a player like Ronaldo. First he got a loose ball but he couldn't put the ball in the net. However, the second half of the game is still left. I hope that Ronaldo's team will turn around strongly in the second half. And I definitely want Cristiano Ronaldo's Portugal to win this match.
yes, it is enough that the defeat of Germany by Japan and Argentina with Saudi Arabia has become history that will not be forgotten and recorded there, we need to discuss something, namely other matches that are no less interesting to discuss here, obviously this thread discussion will be an important point to convince people in their bet

Under is a good bet in this Portugal game. Ghana is backing in on the back line and Portugal plays a conservative possession game. 1-0 will be likely outcome if it doesn't end in a draw. Ronaldo missed on one wide open possession off a Ghana error, that's the only way I see this being more than a 1 goal game if Ghana's back line screws up.
