Cristiano Ronaldo will have to score another World Cup goal if he is to join Eusebio as Portugal's record goalscorer in the tournament. The former Manchester United striker thought he had scored his ninth World Cup goal against Uruguay but the strike was awarded to Bruno Fernandes.
Portugal secured their place in the round of 16 last night with a 2-0 victory over their South American opponents. Fernandes tucked away a penalty in injury time to confirm the three points, but there remained confusion on who actually scored the first goal.
Initially named as the goalscorer, multiple replays showed that the 37-year-old did not get a touch and the goal was awarded to his former United teammate. However, with there being no conclusive outcome on who the goal belongs to, technology inside the ball has provided the real outcome.
