Portugal cruises to win over Uruguay, clinches spot in knockout stage
Portugal dispatched Uruguay on Monday, taking its second win of the tournament and guaranteeing superstar Cristiano Ronaldo will see the knockout stage in what is almost certainly the 37-year-old's last World Cup.
Portugal won 2-0 behind two goals from Bruno Fernandes. The Manchester United star -- briefly Ronaldo's teammate before Man U dismissed the star -- scored the match's first goal in the 54th minute and then added the clincher in the 93rd minute on a penalty kick.
Portugal will play South Korea on Friday, but will likely rest some players to get them ready for the knockout stage.
