Portugal will go into Monday’s Group H match against Uruguay knowing to book a place in the last 16 of the 2022 World Cup. Portugal vs Uruguay (POR vs URU) will be a vital game for both nations. A win for Portugal will ensure their place in the next stage and a win for Uruguay will help them survive a potential exit.
Portugal – Cristiano Ronaldo became the first man to score from the penalty spot in five World Cups when he scored against Ghana on Thursday evening. Santos’ team held on for a crucial three points, and a win on Monday would advance them to the knockout round of the competition ahead of their final game in the section against South Korea on December 2.
Uruguay – Uruguay hit the crossbar twice in their tournament opener against South Korea on Thursday, with Diego Godin heading against the post in the first half and Federico Valverde thumping one off the crossbar in the closing stages of a goalless draw. On matchday two, Diego Alonso’s side can neither qualify nor be eliminated, but a poor result would undoubtedly leave them vulnerable ahead of their final match in the section against Ghana on December 2.
