Knew it. As soon as Messi scored his hat trick, Throwback Thursday became obvious. This game is not only incredible to look back on, but it is a great reminder of what Cristiano Ronaldo used to be. At this time, CR7’s GOAT case was as strong as it ever would be. He was coming off a Champions League 3-peat and victory in the 2016 Euros. Even with that victory, Portugal would go as far as CR7 would take them. Heading into their first group game against Spain, everyone knew this was the game to watch. A win could all but guarantee a spot in the knockouts. Spain controlled the match… when they had the ball. Defending CR7 was a different story. He immediately scored a pen to give Portugal the lead. Spain tied it up, only for CR7 to score again. Spain then took the lead back in the 2nd half and CR7 gave us his most iconic World Cup moment: a free kick into the top corner in the 87th minute to level it back up and salvage a point. Without that point, Portugal don’t make it out of the groups.

Crazy good game. Ronaldo hat trick made it even better. Just everything you could ask for other then a conclusion that wasnt a tie. For sure one of the best Group Stage matches of all time.
