Cristiano Ronaldo-led Portugal are all set to open their FIFA World Cup 2022 campaign with a meeting against Ghana in what is going to be a repeat of the 2014 World Cup. These two sides were paired in the same group back then as well, and the Portuguese prevailed 2-1 but were still eliminated from the tournament.
Amidst all the noise surrounding their captain Ronaldo's interview, and his subsequent Manchester United exit, the Euro 2016 winners will try to stay focused on the task at hand. On the other end, Ghana have reached the FIFA World Cup after 2014, having missed the previous edition in 2018.
The Black Stars are led to Otto Addo, who played in the Ghanaian team in the World Cup first time back in 2006, so he'll know a thing or two about the biggest stage. Ghana will be hoping to upset Portugal, who will rely on the prowess of Cristiano Ronaldo to silence his haters and deliver a statement performance.
