Manchester United superstars Cristiano Ronaldo and Bruno Fernandes have taken a step closer to the 2022 World Cup in Qatar after helping Portugal to a crucial victory over Turkey. Diogo Dalot was also part of the starting line-up during a dramatic 3-1 win at the Estadio do Dragao in Porto.
Having failed to qualify at the group stage, Portugal were drawn against Turkey in the first of two showdowns that are, effectively, a shootout to progress to the 2022 finals. Ronaldo and his international teammates are a step closer, now, after setting up a play-off decider with North Macedonia after their heroic result over Euro 2020 winners Italy.
Porto starlet Otavio was a surprise inclusion in the team and he repaid that faith with an early opener on his home ground. Otavio slotted into the net on the rebound after Liverpool star Diogo Jota struck the post.
