The Dhaka Times Desk Portugal was leading 1-0 with Ronaldo's goal at the last minute of the first leg. Portugal got the ticket to the World Cup by defeating Sweden 3-2 yesterday thanks to a fantastic hat-trick by captain Ronaldo. On the other hand, although they confirmed the World Cup long ago, Argentina beat Bosnia 2-0 yesterday without Messi. Both goals came from the feet of Aguero.
Sweden was leading 2-0 until 50 minutes into the match. Ronaldo gave Portugal 1 goal with a great shot in the 50th minute. To go to the World Cup, Portugal had to increase the gap even more.
A few days ago he was unable to practice because of an injury to his left foot, so Ronaldo suddenly grabbed the boot of his left foot and cried out in pain, scaring the Portugal fans. However, Ronaldo crushed the Swedes as if he was in pain. He made it 2-2 in the 77th minute. He completed his second hat-trick in the national team jersey two minutes later. Not even getting the fourth goal of the match, his chip flew off the right post.
On the other hand, Ronaldo has already set a record in the national team jersey. With a total of 47 goals for the national team, he shared the record with Pauleta, the highest goalscorer in the history of Portugal. Needless to say, this record will be broken in the near future.
On the other hand Messi out injured for two months Argentina had to draw their previous match. However, Sergio Aguero, one of the team's strikers, proved himself in yesterday's match. Aguero was in great form for Man City in club football scoring 2 goals alone. In the 40th minute, he got the ball unexpectedly in the box. He did not make a mistake in using the opportunity. However, the Manchester City striker showed his style in the 66th minute. Bosnia's goalkeeper Bejovic was unable to stop the great left-footed shot.
Argentina finished the year well by winning this match, having played 12 matches and lost only one. However, team coach Alessandro Sabella admitted the lack of Messi. "When Messi is with us, it makes the game easier for us, gives us confidence," his simple confession at the press conference. The gap could have been bigger. I'm not that disappointed. My players tried to play to the best of their ability."
