Cristiano Ronaldo gives his a peak performances whenever he’s negatively criticized, you know this if you’ve been following him well.

I know from observation that he’ll be the MOTM in Portugal’s match against Ghana but his team won’t beat the Black Star!???????? #FIFAWorldCup

My heart says Portugal would beat Ghana, my head says Ghana will do everything in power to stop Portugal. Remember once you succeed stopping someone, it becomes easy for you to pass. Ghana only needs to stop Portugal then half of their problems would be sorted in their group pic.twitter.com/ZwHV7qowZS
