Asian Teams Bring Ronaldo Luck

Cristiano Ronaldo has an intriguing history with Asian opponents at World Cups. His first two goals in the tournament both came against teams from the continent.

In 2006, the forward scored a penalty in Portugal's 2-0 victory over Iran. Four years later, he found the net again in a dominant 7-0 win against North Korea.

Today, Portugal faces Uzbekistan, and all eyes will once again be on Ronaldo. Following the draw with DR Congo, the Portuguese captain faced significant criticism for his performance.

Will Ronaldo deliver the perfect response – a goal – against yet another Asian adversary?
