Portugal2-0Uruguay:
According to Adidas and FIFA,
Cristiano Ronaldo missed Portugal's goal against Uruguay in the 2022 World Cup.
Adidas and FIFA have confirmed that Cristiano Ronaldo did
not touch Portugal's first goal against Uruguay. According to Adidas, the ball
manufacturer, "no external force on the ball could be measured" after
data analysis. If Ronaldo had been given the goal, he would have tied Eusebio
for the most goals scored by a Portuguese player in a World Cup with nine. His
wait continues as it stands.
"We are able to conclusively show no contact on the
ball from Cristiano Ronaldo for the opening goal in the game using the Connected
Ball Technology housed in Adidas' Al Rihla Official Match Ball in the match
between Portugal and Uruguay," a FIFA statement read.
The absence of a "heartbeat" in our measurements
and in the accompanying graphic indicates that no external force on the ball
could be measured.
We can perform our analysis with excellent accuracy thanks
to the 500Hz IMU sensor inside the ball.
Regarding Benzema return rumors, Deschamps said, "I'll
let you talk about it."

For his part, Fernandes believed that Ronaldo should have
been given credit for the goal.
"I thought Cristiano had touched the ball at the time.
I was handing him the ball, "said he.
But more importantly, we triumphed tonight over a formidable
foe. We need to win the following game in order to finish the group unbeaten,
so finishing first in the group is crucial. That's what we're after.
"We [South Korea] face a very organized team on Friday,
and our goal is to take it to match by match."
After the game, Ronaldo allegedly texted Piers Morgan—with
whom he recently shared an explosive tell-all interview about Manchester
United—to express his conviction that he had touched the ball.
Portugal has now advanced to the knockout rounds after
winning two of their first three games.
