Ronaldo’s Stunning Comeback Leads Portugal to Victory Over GhanaRonaldo’s Stunning Comeback Leads Portugal to Victory Over Ghana In a thrilling encounter at Stadium 974, the legendary Cristiano Ronaldo marked his fifth World Cup appearance with a remarkable performance that led Portugal to a 3-2 victory over Ghana. After a goalless first half, Ghana stunned Portugal with a quickfire double strike in the second half from Mohammed Kudus. The Black Stars seemed on course for an upset, but Ronaldo had other plans. In the 65th minute, the veteran striker showed his predatory instincts by pouncing on a loose ball in the box and coolly slotting home the equalizer. It was Ronaldo’s eighth goal at the World Cup, moving him one ahead of former Brazil legend Pelé. Just seven minutes later, Portugal completed the comeback when João Félix slotted home from a Ronaldo assist. The assist was the 37-year-old’s 200th appearance for his country. Ghana refused to give up, and Kudus pulled a goal back with a stunning strike in the 73rd minute. However, Portugal held on for the victory, thanks in part to some heroic defending from goalkeeper Diogo Costa. Ronaldo’s performance was a timely reminder of his enduring brilliance. Despite his advancing years, he remains a lethal goalscorer and a talismanic figure for his team. Portugal now finds itself in a strong position in Group H, with a must-win clash against Uruguay awaiting them on Monday. Ghana, meanwhile, will need to regroup and hope for a positive result against South Korea in their next match to stay in contention. Ronaldo’s stunning comeback has given Portugal a huge boost, and it will be fascinating to see if he can continue to inspire his team to greater heights in Qatar.
