I think Portugal is better than Slovakia even without Cristiano Ronaldo.
Slovakia are playing really well without fear and have even been able to create some goal scoring opportunities. They are defending well against a very good Portugal team with many talented players like Ronaldo, Fernandez, Rafeal from AC Milan, Cancelo, Dalot, Bernando Silva, but still no way for them to get their game really going to create any chance. The only chance they have had in this game was from a mistake by the Slovakia defense. If Slovakia win this game, they really deserve it. They have played well with the ball and when not with the ball. They are a hardworking team.
