00:00The first match of day 13 of the FIFA World Cup, Portugal arrived as one of the favorites
00:06whilst Uzbekistan's American adventure. A fascinating match-up in prospect.
00:12No question about it, and in this World Cup and Portugal off and running, I don't think it'll be
00:17easy. Well, what a proud moment for Uzbekistan, their first time at these finals and sharing
00:23the stage. Starting with Portugal and Roberto Martinez makes a couple of... There's a changing
00:28goal for Uzbekistan with... And we're underway in Houston. This Group K showdown.
00:39Portugal all in red. Kicking from right to left. And looking here to prove a point.
00:48Well, expect Portugal, Paul, to come out just hungry here and...
00:54They're looking for a gap here too. And they found one. It's a neat turn. Bruno Fernandes deflected and away
01:02for a corner.
01:04Be fortunate to get out of this. And then you'll see this. Where Bruno sets it up beautifully with his
01:11right
01:11designed with kill and counterattacks. Mendes. Lovely cross. And it evades Ronaldo, who beats the turf in frustration that he
01:20didn't connect.
01:21He wasn't. This is a beautifully delivered ball from Nuno Mendes. That's what you're looking for today. Him facing goal.
01:29Crosses from wide areas. And yes, they've got to get the ball first.
01:33Crosses from wide areas. Cancelo. Five in red in the middle. Ronaldo!
01:51The farewell may be approaching but the legend is not finished yet.
01:59cristiano ronaldo what a remarkable moment to witness here it's a huge albatross to cough his
02:06neck so watch his movement in and around the penalty spot gets in between a defender they're
02:12caught ball watching dips his left shoulder swivels this in the roll call of the great
02:17had already begun messi and baphi harland but he was wide open central that's a good ball for
02:24bruno fernandez sweeps it over it's over the top of draw felix dropped on here by neto who goes over
02:32and this is and amra bakov but it's mendez
02:43and he drills it in portugal score again
02:51portugal are firmly awake at this world cup and you see here that three-man wall moves
02:59ronaldo's the decoy everybody's attention is focused on him but i always thought this
03:04favored a left-footed player polo gattuso totti but it's portugal on the surge with bruno fernandez
03:12cristiano ronaldo
03:19he's done it again just felt as though this fifa world cup was not quite complete it is now because
03:28cristiano ronaldo classic transitional football we knew this was coming with uzbekistan committing
03:35numbers for the weight of this pass perfect but to angle that into the far side netting
03:41with the goalkeeper going towards the near post and a significant milestone just passed as well
03:47because he moves ahead of the legendary eusebio for most goals bettina scooping it over the top
03:55trial felix looking menacing seem to get caught between a rock and a hard place there with the
04:01ball in but here's the ball over the top it just drops beautifully
04:10chomorodov shukrov
04:13well it's worth a try yeah it fell to the holding bit oh nicely done by joan neves they're in
04:19again
04:20here ronaldo for the hat-trick not this time and a heroic clearance off the line as well from
04:27uzbekistan expecting cristiano ronaldo to get a first half hat-trick well again what we said before
04:34this game and that might have been slightly offside i'm not sure but what we said before the game is
04:40that look portugal has got to get a wide game going and get crosses into this man he was just
04:45trying to flick it over this couldn't smuggle it through one back by joao felix oh
04:55excellent hit it sails just over well there's so much conviction here the minute it comes to him he's
05:01got eyes for goal he's not thinking about anything else and getting swiveled around getting his hips
05:07facing the target faisal i have chamorodov waiting in the middle faisal i have straight at diogo costa
05:19do you know what though i really like him faisal i have he's a real footballer isn't he
05:25now he's brought some attention to himself and he can create a chance on his own and now the
05:31highly talented faisal live shukrov thought about the shot he'll have a pop now
05:38and it took a nick on its way the referee's given a corner and portugal's not forgetting the last foul
05:47four guys surrounded the referee but this is a nice opportunity carved out didn't strike it maybe the way he
05:53wanted to shukrov no he's leaving it and it's lifted over ronaldo what a save
06:02what a save he's picked up an injury for his troubles as well ronaldo
06:07he is on side but that's great goalkeeping to get off your line and look the ability to think that
06:14little ball in in that tight space to prevent for portugal has been really animated just prior to
06:21this corner kick and it's gone in well one of the scruffiest goals yet at this fifa world cup
06:31but portugal raised the score to four nil joe felix taking all of the congratulations
06:38so delivery comes in at the near post ronaldo got the initial touch i think as he gets in front
06:45of
06:45no he didn't it was joel felix who helped it on that went in off the right hand and then
06:51off a defender
06:51here i think usen off oh dearie me it's talk about bad luck and there's gonna go boot on that
07:01and they're
07:02invited to come forward again nuno mendez ronaldo that's what everybody wants isn't it they all want
07:09to see him get the hat-trick overlaps here on the left and he's obviously looking for ronaldo who
07:15kind of steps forward and then steps back
07:21well ronaldo closing that one down and juggling with it and beaten away by namatov bruno fernandez
07:32samaradov who's got additional support now
07:35i mean nimatov has just been too casual these two incidences with ronaldo
07:49chamaradov
07:54well he's not had much to play with but he made this himself pretty much no he surely has it
07:59they
07:59had a little uh overload on the right side here they got it into him hit it off the half
08:03volley
08:06conces out wanting movement from samedo shifted infield for bruno fernandez
08:13good save from namatov
08:18is he going to play the full 90 do you think christiano
08:24i think so i think so i think he's
08:30going to fernandez looking to get samedo away can he find ronaldo it will come the way of rafael
08:39who smashes in number five from doubt to direction have announced themselves at this world cup
08:47in a big way
08:50run his time beautifully great weight of the pass to allow samedo to play it first time ronaldo was
08:56the target but coming in from the left side onto his right foot bends it you know mendez trincao
09:04first time wide look very close at first glance
09:10trying to get his account opened up ronaldo plays a very very good ball down the left side and boy
09:16he just
09:16knifes in between he's going to be upset they weren't competitive for a longer period of time tonight
09:22conces out samedo was right in the thick of things there
09:28and a foul by ronaldo
09:33so i'm almost up in houston but maybe still time for one last goal ronaldo wants it
09:40and he can't quite find it well rafael leal wanted to put it on a platter for ronaldo
09:51well the ronaldo hat-trick was the only thing missing but in the grand scheme of things that's
