Cristiano Ronaldo Makes Promise As Portugal Failed To Beat Ireland

 

Cristiano Ronaldo, Portugal’s captain, has pledged that Fernando Santos’ side will qualify for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.

This was Ronaldo’s reaction after Portugal’s 0-0 draw with Ireland in a World Cup qualifier at the Aviva Stadium on Thursday.

Portugal still leads Group A with 17 points from seven games after their win against Ireland.

Behind Portugal is second place Serbia with 17 points from the same number of games.

Portugal will now host Serbia on Sunday in their next qualifier.

And Ronaldo believes with the help of home fans, Portugal will beat Serbia and secure qualification for the 2022 FIFA World Cup.

“It’s always difficult to play in Ireland, but the point earned leaves all goals at our mercy.

“On Sunday, in front of our audience and in our house, we will stamp our presence at the World Cup in Qatar! Go ahead, @portugal,” Ronaldo wrote on Instagram after the game.
