Portugal registered its 2nd win of the FIFA Qatar World Cup with a comfortable 2-0 win over Uruguay. Bruno Fernandes was the star of the night for the 2016 Euro champions with 2 goals. However, a huge confusion happened in the first goal as Cristiano Ronaldo claimed it and celebrated. However, it was later awarded to Bruno.

Their win over Uruguay sent them to the knockout stages of the competition. They won their first game 3-2, in what was a thriller against Ghana. However, they were far more comfortable against the South American giants.
