Fernando Santos, coach of the Portuguese national team, evaded the controversy surrounding the goal of his team’s progress in the Uruguay match, which they won (2-0) on Monday evening in the second round of Group H of the World Cup.

At the press conference, in the presence of a Koura reporter, the Portugal coach received a question about the progress goal that was calculated for Bruno Fernandez, while some pictures showed that the ball touched Cristiano Ronaldo’s head.

In the 54th minute, Ronaldo rose to a cross from his colleague Bruno Fernandez, which was on its way to the net, and then the Don went off to celebrate the goal, but the goal was awarded to Fernandez in the end.

Santos laughed when answering this question, saying: “What matters to me is that we won and that Portugal played a strong match against Uruguay.”

Portugal raised its score to 6 points at the top of the Group H standings and secured qualification for the round of 16.

Uruguay’s balance was frozen at one point, equal with South Korea in the third and fourth places, while Ghana’s national team has 3 points in second place.
While the hashtag #Shameless on Twitter made most of the headlines for discussing the controversy surrounding the goal.
