#2 In-form Cristiano Ronaldo
Portugal are fairly lucky to have Cristiano Ronaldo, a player who beggars all description. The Real Madrid megastar has shown us time and again that he possesses the potential to single-handedly lead his side to victory when on song.
At the moment the 33 year old is enjoying the form of his life after an inauspicious start to the 2017-18 season. His hat-trick against Spain was indispensable for The Navigators as they somehow managed to procure a point from the match which seemed all but impossible.
Not only against Spain, but his lone goal against Morocco also proved to be the difference between the two sides as Portugal won that match with a marginal scoreline of 1-0.
If Ronaldo continues with his startling form, Portugal will be well-nigh impregnable as a matter of course.
