Cristiano Ronaldo returned from injury in a second half cameo for Portugal as his side came from behind to earn a draw in Spain in their Nations League opener.
The Manchester United superstar began the game on the bench as he continued his recovery from injury as Fernando Santos’s side fell behind to Alvaro Morata’s first half opener for Spain. The visitors were to earn a draw in Seville as Braga winger Ricardo Horta netted his second international goal to level the score and earn a share of the spoils.
The one true moment of class in the first half produced the goal that broke the deadlock for the hosts; a flowing counter-attacking move that caught Portugal cold from their own attack. The move was all about Gavi, the Barcelona midfielder who was back in his home city and showed why Spain boss Luis Enrique continues to select him.
