However, Ronaldo redeemed himself with a crucial goal in the second half, allowing Portugal to level the aggregate score at 2-2 and keep their qualification hopes alive. Fernandes’ confidence was understandable given Ronaldo's high success rate with penalties, but it highlighted the unpredictability of football.
