Fernando Santos' decision to drop Cristiano Ronaldo against Switzerland was rewarded within 20 minutes as replacement striker Goncalo Ramos produced a stunning strike to score just his second international goal.
Ronaldo found himself watching on from the bench in the last-16 tie after leaving the pitch in anger against South Korea in Portugal's final group stage game. It topped off a bad couple of weeks for the 37-year-old after his Manchester United contract was terminated following his drama-filled interview with Piers Morgan.
The Euro 2016 winners didn't need Ronaldo though, as Ramos thundered in a near post shot to give his side the lead. The 21-year-old was playing just his fourth international match, and his first at a World Cup, and was overjoyed with the finish.
