Manchester United ace Bruno Fernandes has no problem with Cristiano Ronaldo claiming his goal in Portugal's win against Uruguay.

It initially looked as though Cristiano Ronaldo had drawn level with Portugal's record World Cup goalscorer Eusebio when he rose to try and head in Fernandes' 54th-minute cross.

But replays showed that the Portugal captain, who has scored eight World Cup goals, did not get a touch on it and the goal was given to Fernandes as his team claimed a second successive Group H win.

"I don't think it really matters who scored the goal at this point," Fernandes said.

"The feeling I had at the time was that Cristiano touched the ball. I was passing the ball to him.

"But the important thing was that we won tonight against a very tough opponent.

"The importance of us being first in the group includes us winning the next game, which would allow us to come out of the group undefeated. That is what we want.

"We have a very organised team ahead of us on Friday, and our objective is to take it match by match."
