Give it a rest. He's still a horrible individual. It may not be his goal. He'll claim it though of course, being the selfish dishonest person he is. If he didn't touch it, he'll claim his ego did.
Further replays show he didn't touch the ball and it's been given to Fernandes.
Very much looks like Bruno's goal... Ronaldo pulling a Harry Kane 😂
I think Harry Kane got closer to that goal then Ronaldo.
Any centre forward in the world is still reeling away as if they've touched it.
Not a thing wrong with him.
Wonder when the next piers Morgan interview will be over that goal being taken off him
There is a lot wrong with him, but he wasn’t hurt :)
Ah now lets wait and see if he swears on his kids life
Portugal are nuts if they don't get Leao on soon to take advantage of Uruguay having to push. Game is set up for him to cause real damage.
ITV still saying it is Ronaldo's goal even after its announced as Fernandes
Official now. Bruno goal.
Weren't you a huge Luis Suarez fan?
Shouldn't be possible to change a goal after it's been awarded imo.
They didn't change who it was awarded to, it was said Fernandes name came up on screens in stadium
Of course it should be. If Messi tried to claim a goal he didn’t touch..well, let’s just say you would have a very different view!
Nunez is asleep
Suarez doing an Aldridge.
No, I wouldn't.
Good effort by Maxi Gomez.
D'ya not think the person who scores it should, like, get it?
In a world cup especially... Christ, it's not like World Cup goals are easy to come by in a career, how insanely gutting would it be to not get one you legitimately scored, because they made a mistake in the moment and didn't bother fixing it in the records... so you forever know you did score one, but it's just never recognised. Nah, definitely think its better that they just do it, like, properly..
What a chance for Suarez to make it 1-1.
Uruguay could have 3 since Portugal scored
In for a great final 15 or so here anyway!
Who awards it
Uruguay much better since they went behind. Hopefully they can get one ( or even better, two).
Bit weird of Portugal not to have Leao standing in space to challenge for those long clearances. Instead there's just no one up there at all.
Depends on the context. When it's a situation where we're zooming in to see if the ball brushed a strand of hair or not, it's a bit silly.
Youd fancy the swiss against this Portuguese team, the Uruguay manager really messed up trying to play long ball.
A few passes opens Portugal right up,
That's what you have to do when some narracist who knows he didn't touch a ball, tries to steal a goal from a team mate
If anything I'd be erring on the other side tbh... the looking to see if it touched his hair is trying to see if there is any way at all of giving it to him - the reverse makes more sense, where it's Bruno's unless you can see that Ronaldo did actually cause some impact - as in, giving it to the last player who definitely conclusively touched it. So benefit of the doubt should be Bruno's.
Either way though, it's just better that it's right than that it's wrong.
A strand. There was daylight between his head and the ball
Ronaldo can claim this now!
