📖 ShireHub's read: Portugal had the lead, the squad depth, and the home continent advantage. DR Congo had three weeks in quarantine and a point to prove. Martinez has a Ronaldo question he can't keep avoiding.

🇵🇹 Portugal

6' — João Neves (assist: Pedro Neto) Neves rose above Tuanzebe and nodded in Pedro Neto's cross. Clean header, early lead.

🇨🇩 DR Congo

45+' — Yoane Wissa A well-taken header seconds before halftime. DR Congo had fought for every inch of the pitch all half and Wissa's finish was the reward. 1-1 at the break.

Group K standings 👇 🥇 DR Congo — 1 pt (0) 🥇 Portugal — 1 pt (0) 🥉 Uzbekistan — TBD (vs Colombia, June 17/18) 🥉 Colombia — TBD

💬 Let's talk about Ronaldo:

Ronaldo is 41 and had virtually no impact on this game. Two half-chances wasted, doubled up by DR Congo defenders every time he touched the ball. When Martinez needed a goal in the 83rd minute, he brought on Gonçalo Ramos and took off Vitinha instead.

Is Ronaldo still the right man to start at this World Cup, or is Martinez holding on too long?
