Portugal Vs Switzerland | WATCH HERE

 


All eyes will be on Lusail Stadium when Cristiano Ronaldo-led Portugal and Switzerland lock horns with each other in the Round of 16 battle on Tuesday, with only one quarter-final ticket left on the table.

Ronaldo made headlines for all the wrong reasons leading up to the World Cup, but despite being at the epicentre of a storm that saw him fired from his club, the drama hasn't fazed him or hindered Portugal's performances at all.

If anything, he looks ever-so motivated to carry the hopes of his country, as Fernando Santos' men prepare to kick off the knockout stages at Qatar 2022 for what could be Ronaldo's international swansong should things against him.

Despite the extraordinary turn of events, there was no hangover whatsoever on the pitch from the global superstar as he scored the opener in a thrilling 3-2 win over Ghana. In the 2-0 victory over Uruguay, Ronaldo sought to steal a goal from United's Bruno Fernandes.

However, Portugal's spotless start to the World Cup ended in a shock 2-1 defeat to South Korea last time out, after cruising to the round of 16 with a game to spare.

Portugal vs Switzerland confirmed line-ups

Portugal XI (4-3-3): Costa; Dalot, Pepe, Dias, Guerreiro; Otavio, Carvalho, B. Silva; Fernandes, Ramos, Ronaldo

Switzerland XI (4-2-3-1): Sommer; Fernandes, Schar, Akanji, Rodriguez; Freuler, Xhaka; Shaqiri, Sow, Vargas; Embolo
