Ronaldo scare as Giroud fires again
CRISTIANO RONALDO brushed aside injury concerns after being substituted after 30 minutes during Portugal’s 1-1 draw with Serbia. The Juventus superstar, 34, pulled up with a hamstring injury to his right leg. ‘I’m not worried, I know my body,’ Ronaldo told Portuguese media. ‘I should be back in one or two weeks.’ The fine form of Ajax’s Dusan Tadic continues, his penalty giving the visitors the lead after seven minutes, but holders Portugal hit back through
Danilo Pereira just before half-time. In Group H, World Cup winners France continued their perfect start with a 4-0 win over Iceland. Olivier Giroud passed David Trezeguet as the third-highest goalscorer for Les Bleus, with his tapin moving him to 35 goals. Barcelona’s Samuel Umtiti, PSG’s Kylian Mbappe and Atletico Madrid’s Antoine
Griezmann were also on the scoresheet. And Turkey eased to a 4-0 win over Moldova, with Everton striker Cenk Tosun hitting a brace.
