Ronaldo likes to play against Luxembourg. He scored most often against the small country in international matches (9 times in 10 matches). And now he hurt the Luxembourgers too. After 10 minutes he opened the score by tapping in a ball from close range. Before the break he beat Moris a second time and his counter now stands at 11 goals against Luxembourg.
Between those two Ronaldo moments, Felix and Bernardo Silva had also found their way to the goal. Both with the head. And so the Portuguese went into the break with a generous 0-4. Like against Liechtenstein, this wasn’t going to be much of a measure of value.
After the break the fire was out for a while, but Martinez still had some fresh guys on the bench. Gonçalo Ramos, Ronaldo’s replacement, was unable to score. Substitutes Otavio and Leão do. First it was the turn of the first: 0-5.
Five minutes before time, the ball hit the spot. The ideal opportunity for Leão to also open his account, but Moris was able to parry the eleven meter of the AC Milan striker. A good moment for him.
Only, beautiful songs don’t last long and a few minutes later Leão was able to outwit him. 0-6 was the final result. Martinez’s team scored 10 times in 2 games and takes six out of six.
