Cristiano Ronaldo sat out Portugal training on Wednesday as Otavio, Danilo Pereira and Nuno Mendes were all unavailable through injuries ahead of their final group game against South Korea.
Ronaldo became the first player to score in five different World Cups when he netted from the penalty spot against Ghana in his nation’s opening World Cup game.
The veteran forward tried to claim he had score Portugal's first goal against Uruguay in their second group game but despite Portugal reportedly presenting evidence that the 37-year-old headed home a cross from Bruno Fernandes, it was confirmed that the ball had gone straight into the net.
