Ronaldo has done all the right things in the tournament so far apart from missing a penalty against Iran. He scored a superb hat-trick against Spain which included a stunning strike from a free-kick, headed home the winner against Morocco and remained a constant threat against Iran. Ronaldo’s swagger and body language bode well for Portugal and they would definitely fancy their chances in the knock-out stages.
Ronaldo has started as the centre forward in all the 3 matches so far but kept switching to the flanks frequently. His speed and strength have enabled him to frequently beat the opposition defenders and get near their goal. His aerial prowess makes him a dangerous proposition from the set-pieces as well. Overall, Ronaldo’s transformation to a lethal goal-scoring machine seems to have been completed in this World Cup.
