There were no goals, one assist and no less than four selfie-pursuing field invaders for Cristiano Ronaldo in Portugal’s 3-0 win over Turkey that secured a spot in the European Championship round of 16.

And so Cristiano Ronaldo and Portugal go marching merrily onward, a 3-0 victory over Turkey on Saturday the latest step in what is hurriedly becoming an imposing campaign that looks destined for big things. Ronaldo, the 39-year-old icon of the game, did not score in Dortmund but was influential and active, as Portugal made the most of a calamitous own goal to clinch a spot in the round of 16.

That much was clear after 55 minutes when he laid the ball on a plate for Bruno Fernandes to strike home the third, and complete what was a clear signal of intent from the 2016 champions. The message is this, Portugal means business, Ronaldo is going nowhere, and this is a team that feels it can beat anyone. Turkey is far from finished, and is still in position to claim second spot in the group.
