Euro 2016: Portugal vs Hungary - 5 players to watch out for

Nani
Nani has scored Portugal’s only goal in the tournament so far.

Cristiano Ronaldo

Cristiano Ronaldo
Ronaldo has endured a miserable Euro 2016 so far.

In the news for all the wrong reasons again. Ronaldo was criticised heavily by fans and critics alike for the penalty miss against Austria. Ronaldo’s failures are contrasted with that of Lionel Messi’s successful run to the Copa America final only to add more pressure on the Portuguese talisman.

Portugal had plenty of the ball but failed to create enough meaningful chances. The captain needs to step forward like he did for Real Madrid against Wolfsburg in the UEFA Champions League quarterfinal second leg. It is Do-or-Die time for the Seleccao

Cometh the Hour, Cometh the Man. It is such moments of adversity that define legends. Legions of fans and all of Portugal will pray fervently for the phrase to come true. Portugal needs to win to ensure qualification and have a shot at making a deep run in the tournament.

And a goal from Ronaldo will see him become the first man to score in four editions of Euro!
