2026 World Cup Day 13 Highlights: Portugal, England, Panama, Colombia Matches
So far, the stars have mostly dazzled at this World Cup except Cristiano Ronaldo, whose lackluster performance has sparked doubts about how far Portugal can advance relying on the rest of the squad. After a surprising draw with DR Congo and facing Colombia next, Portugal needs a win here to stay in contention.
Uzbekistan showed resilience in their opener but eventually fell 3-1 to Colombia after conceding two late goals. With nothing to lose, they might push hard against Portugal.
