And now, the referee shows the penalty spot. Ronaldo seems to be taking this opportunity.

Yes, unfortunately. A very undeserved penaldo in my opinion.

But now we have an equalizer from Ghana!

Portugal vs. Ghana: 1:1

Ghana are playing very well in the match as they were able to level up the score. Ronaldo score Penalty and eight minutes after, Andre Ayew level the score with a cross from Kudos.
now Portugal have taking the lead with a goal from Joe Felix.

Ghana might try and get a point in the match as they look serious in the match.

and now the score position changes. Will Brazil still be on top or will Ghana score another goal to equalize?
let's see what will happen in the next surprise

[AakZaki]

France put on a really good show against Australia yesterday. When they conceded first I had some doubts like whether their end would be like Argentina. But France attackers were so dedicated to winning this match by having a productive match. I liked Mbappe and Giroud a lot. Giroud's goal attempt by a volley was worth watching. It could have been the goal of the week maybe if he was able to score it. Pavard was at fault about Australia's goal also. He was just sleeping there.

This is a solid start by France and we saw how determined they were in this World Cup. I expect them to finish their league in the lead as Denmark had big difficulties against Tunisia.

I think France will have a hard time creating goals because Australia managed to give them a surprise. But france was ultimately too strong for Australia. But I'm glad if Lucas Hernandes had an ACL injury. This makes France suffer even more because they have a lot of injured players, it gives Didier Deschamps a headache and the possibility of defending the championship will be even more difficult. Perhaps Lucas' injury also cost Bayern Munich, because it took a bit of a long time to get better.

Yes, some teams that were considered favorites are somehow not convincing at this WC, maybe this is the result of self-confidence and underestimation of rivals or the omission of coaches to analyze the teams' games before the upcoming games, there is too much unpredictability, but this is actually good, but as usual it ends only with a short-term flash.

Ghana has Finally broken the goal scoring barrier for the African team in the world cup.
What an interesting match the Ghanaian really played well and although they lost. They have proven that African teams can participate in the world cup by scoring two goals against the Portuguese team . Although I predicted the game under 2.5goals , seeing the first finished a nil draw I was confident that was only going to be a goal or two in the second half but once again the world cup and football has proven that nothing is impossible to happen .the second half of the match has seen a total of 5 goals in the match thats an over 4.5goals in the match

Finally, after 100 minutes, Portugal left the field with a 3-2 victory. But there was a lot of drama towards the end.  Portugal suffered a bit of a shock with Ronaldo making two more substitutions which resulted in them conceding another goal early on. This is how the game was leading by 3-2.  But at the end, an incident could have turned around. At the end, when the Portuguese goalkeeper took the ball and placed the ball on the ground to pass it to a player, a Ghanaian player from behind tried to steal the ball from the goalkeeper without the goalkeeper's knowledge. Scored a goal.  But in the end no such incident happened. But I think goalkeepers should be a little more aware of these things. My best wishes and congratulations to Ronaldo and Ronaldo's football team.  I hope they will enter the field with much confidence in the next match.  the

if Osman Bukari doesn't slip in the 99th minute, he shoots into the empty goal to make it 3-3 and one of the best 2 halftimes of the tournament ends in a draw.

[Jody.Drummer]

Three goals in just 10 minutes is really incredible The first goal was scored when Ronaldo was moving towards the goalie with the ball, when the player of the opposite team committed a foul while tripping Ronaldo. Just then the referee blows the whistle to announce that it is But then Ronaldo took a penalty shot and Portugal went one point ahead. However, the Gunner captain did not take long to repay that goal. After a while, this player scored a great goal to bring the team back to parity.  But whenever Ghana changed two players, they conceded two goals in the space of a few minutes. At the last minute, Cristiano Ronaldo's Portugal went ahead with three assists from Ronaldo.  There is still some time left before the end of the game, I hope that Portugal will leave the field with a win in this match today

Great game going on between Portugal and Ghana. Towards the end of the match, Ghana fell into disaster. Currently Portugal 3 Ghana 2. The result of this match cannot be changed as the match is very close to end.  First hour Ghana played well but towards the end they have to defeated by 1. However, in the whole match, Portugal is ahead in terms of Possession, Portugal has about 64 percent and Ghana has 37 percent. Besides, Portugal is a stronger team than Ghana. It was already known that Ghana would lose but now it has become true. The next match between Brazil and Serbia that would be the most fascinating match.

It was a very impressive match that both Portugal and Ghana showed. Did you see that, when D. Costa made a very fatal mistake if the Ghanaian players could finish it well. If only the Portuguese defender was late to close his movement, then Ghana would be a goal in the seconds of the match. This match was run with high tension, there were many incidents that made several players were given a yellow card by the referee.
I highlighted how determined Portugal are in the game, but what they need to improve is that they are in too much of a rush to get the ball into the Ghana defense so every time they enter a third of the opponent's defence, they lose the ball. Meanwhile, Ghana's decision to be more daring to go out made them punished with 2 goals which were created by Portugal. There was such a wide gap after they tried to get out more and attack.

And now, the referee shows the penalty spot. Ronaldo seems to be taking this opportunity.

But now we have an equalizer from Ghana!

Portugal vs. Ghana: 1:1

When Ronaldo scored the goal, i thought that was over for Ghana as it would be impossible for Ghana to score and level the match. But Ghana did manage to score and now the score is 1-1.  

With under fifteen minutes to go in the match, we never know who will win this match. Ghana's score really created panic for those who bet on Portugal. We are having an exciting second half as first half did not produce any goals from any team.

The lead for Ghana did not last long. Andre from ghana leveled the score at 73 min of the game. As soon as he left the field, Feilx scored the 2nd goal for Portugal. The joy for Ghana did not last long as Rafael scored another goal from Portugal making the lead 3-1. Osman scored the 2nd goal for Ghana in the 89th minute but it was too late for Ghana.

Portugal did win the match but I must say that Ghana is one of the weakest African teams, showed some good potential, and give a good fight to the stong Portugal team.

[Asiska02]

Can Ghana use the additional time to level the score after getting their second goal before the additional time? The Ghana team looks serious and are about to do something spacial if they can level the score before the end of the match

The game has already over, and Ghana has lost. They were defeated 3:2 by Portugal, a stronger team than them. We wouldn't say Ghana didn't give it their all in this game, but Portugal dominated in terms of possessions and shots on goal. They were the first African team to score a goal in this World Cup, but it wasn't enough to give them the victory. There is still hope for them, hope they play better in their next match to secure a win.

[Mr.right85]

Ghana seems to be looking for a draw in this game, for 45 minutes of the first half there was not a single chance that Ghana could threaten Portugal's goal.
The second half had just started, Portugal was still actively carrying out attacks, Ghana, which was not favored in this game, was still able to frustrate Ronaldo in looking for goals.

That's the issue with Ghana right now. They came on the match with a mind set of getting a draw if they could manage it. There formation speaks loudly of it and so does there lack of courage. They aren't taking much of there chances of counter attack. I might just applaud Mohammed Kudus and Alidu Seidu to have trued to push forward in an attempt to attack.
They had a chance in a 4-5 Ghanaian players to a 3 Portuguese defenders from a lost ball by Joao Cancelo but still, they just ran up front and relented on an attack.
Them haven't conceived a penalty with Ronaldo haven't scored the goal, they came out a lot more to seek out an equaliser. They shouldn't have be holing back.

let's see what will happen in the next surprise

The score remained unchanged at 3-2 and Portugal picked up all three points in their first match at the Qatar 2022 World Cup, but Portugal goalkeeper Diogo Costa made a mistake in stoppage time. And the error was saved by two Portuguese defenders, when Diogo Costa was about to kick the ball in front of his goal and there was still one Gana player behind him who immediately took it and that worried Ronaldo et al.
interesting match and both played very well and also full of drama.

This kind of stuff happens all the time in FIFA World Cup tournaments to be honest. Did anyone expect Germany to decimate Brazil years ago on their own turf? I don't think so. Did anyone expect Italy to not qualify for this World Cup?

I don't think so. These kind of variables are what make these huge tournaments truly interesting. However, these underdogs rarely progress through all the way to the finals as you mentioned.

The closest that an underdog has come to the cup in recent years is Croatia who ended up losing in the final against France.

We wouldn't say Ghana didn't give it their all in this game, but Portugal dominated in terms of possessions and shots on goal.

Very good. Portugal managed to grab 3 important points for a good start to the World Cup. It looks like this victory was predicted, but Portugal actually got strong resistance from Ghana. Maybe many say that Portugal will easily win this match because Ghana is not the seed, but in fact Portugal has to work hard to beat Ghana who also looks like they want to get maximum points. So congrats to Portugal and its supporters, I hope Portugal will be one of the two teams that qualify for the round of 16.

Unfortunately, Uruguay who was actually the favorite to win the match vs South Korea had to play out a goalless draw. Both teams have 1 point together, so it will definitely be very exciting in the next 2 matches.

Portugal goes top of the group with the final assist from Bruno Fernandez and Ac Milan attacking player Raphael Leao scoring the third goal to put and give Portugal a better chance of winning the match. For me, it was payback to Ghanaians for knocking Nigeria outta the qualification stages, although Nigeria haven't had a good look in that game.
I predicted the game to end as draw in the first half and they did.

All fine goals in the second half, Ghana would have equalized finally, but Athletico Bilbao Striker Inaki Williams slipped off, that would have been a huge error from Portugal goal keeper for not observing who's behind him before serving the ball on the pitch.
Hard ways the best way, and Portugal secures it, with Ronaldo breaking another record.

[Blawpaw]

The match between Portugal and Gana was also a great game. Portugal had to struggle a little bit with the African team. The struggle was such that for instances I thought the game would come to a draw.

I have to say that Gana did a surprising match and that they are a team that can cause some concerns.
All and all Portugal ended up having the best, but Gana was a strong opponent. with their quality of football, I guess they will go far.

Danilo at the centre isn't really a good choice. At the end he was kind of sloppy and should have done better in defence in that 2nd goal. Ghana played great with the comeback and the second goal near the end. They almost had Portugal but Portugal won in the end. Honestly was surprised to see such sloppy defending from Portugal today. It was tough scoring against Ghana yet they conceded goals so cheaply.

Portugal need to strengthen their defence especially at the ending minutes if they hope to see the quarters.

[Captain Corporate]

Now, that's a game that is compact. For 65 minutes there were no goals at all, and after that, for the remaining 30 minutes, they had 5 goals in the game. Definitely, something I love to see because it is the real football that I love to watch. I know it's not going to be like this at all times but it's going to be something a lot better if Portugal keeps this up. People were saying it would be near impossible for Ronaldo to bring Portugal to the finals but if they keep playing like this then there is a possibility that they could end up with a chance to win it all, not a big chance but there is a sliver of hope for them from the looks fo it.

[Doell]

Lol, Ghana played badly after getting a goal from Andre Ayew or is it possible, because Andre Ayew was replaced it made Ghana's performance decrease. Because I saw that Ghana could play well during those minutes but unfortunately, it looks like the Ghana coach made a mistake by taking Andre Ayew off because after Andre Ayew was substituted then Portugal could quickly score two goals.
I think after Ronaldo's goal from the penalty spot, it was like the only goal that was created in this match, but what happened actually made the match even more interesting after Andre Ayew's goal back.

Winning at the beginning is indeed very important in the group stage with a system like this, because for the following matches the team that has led the standings can at least be safer.
Because national team matches are usually not too ambitious to have many goals, considering the players' fitness if they are required to continue playing harder throughout 90 minutes. But indeed, when both teams have scored goals, they will no longer hold back from playing harder, and of course will make bigger efforts to score another goal.

Beside Andre Ayew the Ghana coach mistake was the substitution of Mohammed Kudus, that guy is playing really well in this match, he can break through the Portugal defense. I thought this match would be as boring as the Uruguay vs South Korea match, but not. The Portugal vs Ghana match was so interesting that 5 total scores were created in the second half.

The last match today is closed with Brazil Vs Serbia, I guess Brazil will win easily.

The match between Portugal and Ghana was an incredible match. Both teams gave us a very competitive game. It's really nice to see Cristiano Ronaldo score today. But Portugal needed to win by a narrower margin.
