Portugal superstar Cristiano Ronaldo will rarely get a better chance than at Euro 2016 to land the only major honour lacking in his glittering career by leading his country to victory in a major finals. It took Ronaldo 117 minutes to get a meaningful touch in the Croatia penalty area in the last 16 match against on Saturday, yet he was decisive in helping his country to reach another European Championship quarter-final. Ronaldo's old friend Ricardo Quaresma applied the finishing touch after the Real Madrid star's initial effort -- Portugal's first on target -- was parried by Danijel Subasic into the Besiktas winger's path for a simple finish to snatch a 1-0 win on Saturday.
