World Cup 2018: All 16 teams ranked according to their strength

#9 Portugal

Christiano Ronaldo is second on topscorer list with 4 goals.

The reigning European champions Portugal qualified to the round of 16 without a defeat. Led by their talisman Cristiano Ronaldo, who has already netted four times in the tournament, Portugal has managed to score in all of their three group stage matches. Ronaldo, who was the top scorer at the Champions League, is carrying his good form to the international stage. This could be the last world cup for the Real Madrid star, and he will be looking to leave a mark that will establish him as the greatest player of all time.

Portugal began their world cup campaign with a thrilling 3-3 draw with Spain. They edged out an inspired Morocco side 1-0 in their second match. Despite missing a spot-kick in their final outing with Iran, the Portugeese managed a 1-1 draw and booked their ticket to the knock out stages. They will face a strong Uruguay team in their next encounter. Uruguay has not conceded a goal in the tournament so far, but the whole world knows that Portugal has a player who can score goals against any opponents in the world.
