Are Cristiano Ronaldo and Portugal proving to be true Euro 2024 contenders? The 'FOX Soccer NOW' crew discussed the matter.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Portugal became the third team to clinch a spot in the Round of 16 at Euro 2024 on Saturday with a 3-0 win over Turkey. Bernardo Silva scored Portugal's first goal in the 21st minute, with Turkey then gifting Portugal another score on an own goal. Then, in the second half, Bruno Fernandes gave Portugal a 3-0 lead on a close-up shot. Portugal had possession for the majority of the game, out-passing Turkey 503-352.

'Their late goal in their first game was a wake-up call coming into this and a dominant performance over Türkiye.' Portugal overcame a 1-0 second-half deficit to beat Czechia, 2-1, in their first match of the tournament. On Portugal's third goal on Saturday, Ronaldo passed up a clean look at the net, setting up Fernandes for an easier shot attempt.
