Qatar 2022: Ronaldo becomes first player to score in five World Cups as Portugal defeat Ghana 3-2


Cristiano Ronaldo became the first player to score in five World Cups on Thursday as Portugal opened their campaign in Qatar with a 3-2 defeat of Ghana in Group H.


Ronaldo shrugged off a tumultuous week which saw him dramatically leave Manchester United to bury a second-half penalty to set Portugal on their way to victory.


Andre Ayew equalised for Ghana shortly afterwards but Portugal took a 3-1 lead with goals from Joao Felix and Rafael Leao. Osman Bukari scored a late consolation for Ghana.


After Ronaldo was substituted, the Ghanaian side scored their second goal to bring them back into the game.
