Despite suffering their first defeat in the final group match at Qatar 2022, Portugal advanced as the group’s top team thanks to Uruguay’s victory over Ghana. They are now attempting to reach the round of 16 for the first time since finishing fourth in Germany in 2006.
Ronaldo and Lionel Messi shared the record for the most goals scored at the world cup until December 4, when Ronaldo never scored in the knockout stage. Now, CR7 can get past Messi, and Portugal wants their golden boy to shine and score this time.
Even though Switzerland is aware that they are unlikely to defeat Portugal in the round of 16, they are aware that anything could happen. At FIFA 2022, there have been numerous unexpected outcomes, such as Portugal losing their most recent game 2-1 to South Korea.
As a result, it doesn’t really matter who is stronger on paper. In a single world cup, Switzerland has never won three matches. Since hosting the world cup in 1954, Switzerland has not advanced past the quarterfinals. If they want to set new records, they have to win this game.
