Bruno Fernandes brilliant, Portugal wins

Jakarta, CNNI Indonesia

Portugal managed to beat Uruguay with a score of 2-0 in the match World Cup 2022 in Lusail, Tuesday (11/29) early morning WIB. Bruno Fernandes became the winning star thanks to the two goals he scored.

The duel between Portugal and Uruguay was fierce from the start of the match. Both teams tried to create chances.

But in the first half, Portugal and Uruguay both found it difficult to penetrate the opposition defence. No goals were created in the first half.

Going into the second half, Portugal tried to appear more aggressive. Uruguay also responded with harder pressure whenever Portugal attempted to attack.

In the 52nd minute Joao Felix manages to break through the right side of the Uruguayan defence. But his shot just hit the outside of the goal.

Two minutes later, Portugal finally managed to break through Uruguay’s goal. Bruno Fernandes’ gastric bait in the penalty area was met by Cristiano Ronaldo who jumped in the direction the ball was coming from.

Ronaldo was full of joy celebrating the goal and was recorded as the goalscorer. But a correction was made not long ago and Bruno Fernandes was declared top scorer because Fernandes’s pass missed Ronaldo before he could score.

After falling behind, Uruguay tried to apply pressure. In the 60th minute Darwin Nunez attempted a kick-off but was easily saved by Diogo Costa as Nunez’s kicks tend to be weak.

Uruguay then made a series of substitutions. They fielded Giorgian de Arrascaeta, Facundo Pellistri, Maxi Gomez and Luis Suarez to increase the power of the shot.

In the 75th minute Maxi Gomez’s shot hit the goal post. Four minutes later, Diogo Costa managed to block off de Arrascaeta’s through ball.

Portugal also opted to make a series of substitutions, including the elimination of Cristiano Ronaldo in the 82nd minute.

At the end of the match, Portugal were awarded a penalty after Jose Gimenez committed a handball attempting to block Bruno Fernandes.

Bruno Fernandes came forward as executor and did his job well. Fernandes was able to outwit Sergio Alvarez with his signature penalty-tackling style.

Fernandes almost scored a hat-trick in injury time as he had two golden chances to score. But his hard shot from a tight angle was countered by Alvarez and soon after his shot from outside the box hit the post.

The 2-0 score for Portugal lasted until the end of the fight.
