Cristiano Ronaldo has been voted Budweiser Man of the Match after scoring the only goal in Portugal’s hard-fought 1-0 win against Morocco in Group B at the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia on Wednesday.

Ronaldo claimed the award in Portugal’s thrilling 3-3 draw against Spain where he netted a hat-trick in their first group game last weekend.

The current FIFA World Player of the Year headed in a cross just four minutes into Wednesday’s game to give his side the vital win.

Aside from scoring the only goal, Ronaldo went close a couple of occasions to add to his tally and also tried to set up his teammates to get on the score sheet as well.

He is now on four goals at this year’s World Cup and is currently the top scorer so far.
