Portugal meets Switzerland this Tuesday from 8:00 p.m. for a place in the round of 16. Cristiano Ronaldo starts as a substitute in the Portuguese team, since the coach, Fernando Santos, has opted for Gonçalo Ramos as a striker. The Benfica attacker had only played ten minutes to date in the World Cup in Qatar against Ghana and 8 against Uruguay. The Swiss team wants to be, 68 years later, in the quarterfinals of a World Cup and advance more than in the last two editions in Russia and Brazil, where they were eliminated in the round of 16. Portugal, for its part, has not reached a quarterfinal since Germany 2006, the World Cup in which it was fourth. Whoever wins this match will face Morocco in the quarterfinals, which this afternoon defeated Spain in a penalty shootout.
