Kharkiv: Due to the outstanding performance of the star footballer Cristiano Ronaldo, Portugal defeated Netherlands by 2-1 in an exciting match of the Euro Cup 2012 played at Metalist Stadium Kharkiv, second largest city of Ukraine.
Cristiano Ronaldo shone for the first time at Euro 2012, scoring twice in Portugal’s 2-1 win over the Netherlands in their Group B game on Sunday to secure a quarter-final place and send the winless Dutch home.
The first goal of the match was scored by Van der Vaart for Netherland in the 11th minute of the match but Portugal came back strongly after star footballer Ronaldo hit two goals for his team in the 28th and 74th minute.
Although the ball was mostly possessed (62%) by Netherland players but it was their opponents who attacked their goal post 24 times.
