The match started with both teams evenly matched, unable to find the back of the net in the first half despite several attempts. In the 59th minute, Rafael Leao gave Portugal 1-0 lead with a header. Then, in the 72nd minute, Cristiano Ronaldo doubled the advantage by successfully converting a penalty, making it 2-0.
Portugal quickly added to their lead after Ronaldo's penalty. In the 80th minute, Bruno Fernandes scored to make it 3-0. A few minutes later, Ronaldo set up Pedro Neto for the fourth goal and in the 87th minute and then produced a stunning overhead kick, making it 5-0.
"I just want to enjoy. Plan for the retirement… if it has to happen, in one or two years… I don’t know. I’m turning 40 soon… I really want to enjoy, as long as I feel motivated I keep going. The day I don’t feel motivated, I will retire," Cristiano Ronaldo said after the match.
"I don’t even think about this 1000 career goals record, to be fair. Of course you always want to make history, but I don’t focus on that record now," Ronaldo concluded.
