Ronaldo also contributed positively to Portugal's ball development. He touched the ball 33 times, achieved a 93% pass accuracy rate and made 1 dangerous pass to a teammate.
The remaining two goals of Portugal belonged to Bernardo Silva (minute 26) and an own goal by Jan Bednarek (minute 88). Poland only managed to score 1 honorary goal thanks to Piotr Zielinski in the second half.
After 3 matches, Portugal currently has 9 absolute points with a goal difference of +4. Previously, Portugal defeated Croatia and Scotland with the same score of 2-1. Ronaldo and his teammates are currently at the top of Group A-1. Among the teams participating in the 2024-25 Nations League, only 3 teams still have a perfect record: Greece (Group B-2), Romania (Group C-2) and Portugal (Group A-1).
