Portugal's Cristiano Ronaldo shook off doubts after a sluggish start, scoring 2 goals in a 5-0 win against Uzbekistan. The 41-year-old was nearly invisible in the team's opening match against the Democratic Republic of Congo but returned to form in the World Cup. Ronaldo's second goal sealed the victory, as he became the first player to score in six World Cups. Portugal's victory marked a comeback for the team captain.
