Portugal v Ghana LIVE - World Cup 2022 in Qatar updates as Cristiano Ronaldo enters the fray

Someone needs to run in behind. In the meantime, though, Cancelo tries a cross which Djiku heads clear.

Williams leaps to control, but his touch is heavy and Portugal get going again.

They can't hold out with none of the ball.

He'd better hope no one he wants to sign for is watching this. The corner goes back to Guerreiro, he measures a delicious cross and Ronaldo is up early to tuck in ... except he heads wide when all he needed to do was hit the target!

They win a corner.

And Otavio slides instantly through the middle! Ronaldo is in! But his first touch is poor, allowing Zigi to race out bravely, diving at his feet and smothering the shot.

I think it's a 4-1-4-1 for Portugal, with Bruno on the right and Felix on the left. That would not make a whole lot of sense.

But he's only got Williams inside the box, and his cross is easily collected by Costa.

But, so far, Ghana are shutting off their passing lanes and forcing them backwards or sideways - as I type that, to their own box, where Danilo has to turn away from trouble as Williams presses.

Then, when Guerreiro is seen off, Kudus picks up Amarrtey's poor clearance on the edge - what's he doing there? - and loses possession to Neves, whose shot is blocked.

Salisu heads away and Otavio thunks wide of the near post from 20 yards.

Is Bruno off Ronaldo? That's worked really well at club level. Anyhow, Portugal win a corner down the left...

But they're a new team and the youngest squad in the competition, so they've not settled yet.

Is low-key remarkable. They were beyond dreadful at Afcon and not great in qualifying, but they benefited from one of the worst penalty calls you'll ever see against South Africa, then gutsed out a seriously pressurised environment to beat Nigeria on away goals in the playoff.

Is good. Is Ronaldo crying?

Ronaldo high-fives the mascots. What a lovely boy.

Maybe Portugal will play a diamond or a box in midfield, with Ronaldo and Felix in a two. That makes more sense, I think, because Bernardo is wasted wide and Cancelo can give them width down the right.
