Cristiano Ronaldo vouches to put Portugal “in its rightful place”

Ronaldo’s Portugal faltered in the final stages of the World Cup Qualifiers, conceding their automatic qualification slot to Serbia. Now, they must overcome two knock-out qualifying fixtures to book their place for the grand event in Qatar later this year.

The Selecao will take on Turkey in the semi-final on Thursday night. If they manage to overpower the Turks, they will take on either European champions Italy or North Macedonia in Wednesday’s final. Before the do-or-die showdown, Ronaldo took to Instagram to post a message of inspiration.

He wrote:

“Total focus on the 2022 World Cup. Proud, as always, to represent Portugal. We know that the path will not be easy, we have the utmost respect for the opponents we will face and who share the same goals as us. But together, we will fight to put Portugal in its rightful place. Let's do it! 💪🏽⚽️❤️🇵🇹”

As always, all eyes will be on the Manchester United star in the match against Turkey. He has scored a whopping 115 goals for his nation and will look to add to his tally this Thursday.
