Portugal dominated their UEFA Nations League game at Estádio do Dragão by thrashing Poland 5-1. Rafael Leão started the score in the 59th minute. The world football icon Cristiano Ronaldo followed from the penalty mark in the 72nd minute and added even another with a fantastic overhead kick in the 87th something hardly any player turning 40 could do.
Pedro Neto (83rd min) and Bruno Fernandes (8th min) added to the scoring, therefore guaranteeing the hosts’ triumph. Although Dominik Marczuk sent Poland a late consolation goal, it had little effect to stop Portugal’s exuberant celebration of making it to the quarterfinals with their forceful victory, with Cristiano Ronaldo being the competition’s top goal scorer so far.
Cristiano Ronaldo dominates Europe with brace plus incredible bicycle kick goal against Poland
Cristiano Ronaldo scored a penalty and an overhead kick as Portugal beat Poland 5-1 to guarantee a place in the Nations League quarterfinals on Friday.
In Porto, Ronaldo turned in a man-of-the-match performance in a blistering second half.
Portugal took its time to overcome a hapless Poland but three goals in the last 10 minutes put the sheen on a commanding victory.
Rafael Leão broke the deadlock with a fine header 14 minutes into the second half and then Ronaldo got his 134th international goal from the penalty spot 13 minutes later.
Bruno Fernandes scored a stunning third from almost 30 meters out and three minutes later Ronaldo’s pass gave Pedro Neto the space to lash home a fourth from a tight angle.
Ronaldo made it five — and 135 — with a deft overhead kick three minutes from time.
