Portugal 7-0 Estonia: Cristiano Ronaldo scores twice in thumping
Thursday 9 June 2016 10:56, UK
Cristiano Ronaldo's two first-half goals in 10 minutes helped Portugal to a 7-0 demolition of Estonia on Wednesday in their last warm-up game before Euro 2016.
Ronaldo marked his return to the Portugal squad after a two-game absence by scoring with a powerful header in the 38th minute, before hitting home from inside the area, extending his Portuguese record tally to 58 goals. He has 126 caps, one shy of Luis Figo's record.
Ricardo Quaresma also scored twice, while Danilo and Eder got second-half goals before Karol Mets' own-goal completed the rout.
Ronaldo took the role of centre forward before his half-time substitution, but roamed freely and often dropped back into midfield.
The Portuguese beat Norway 3-0 and lost 1-0 against England in recent warm-ups, but there were no injury concerns to come out of Wednesday's match.
