The Qatar World Cup was disappointing for Ronaldo, nicknamed “The Don”, in all respects, although he scored the opening goal for his Portuguese team once morest Ghana from a penalty kick, thus becoming the first player in the history of the World Cup to score a goal in five different versions, according to AFP report.
