Ronaldo did not score goal against Uruguay: Adidas technology confirms

Cristiano #ronaldo did not score Portugal's opener in their 2-0 win over Uruguay at the World Cup, according to Adidas technology inside the match ball. While the Portugal captain claimed the opening goal, it was later awarded to Bruno Fernandes. To prove the decision to give Fernandes the goal was right, Adidas shared graphics showing how there was no movement in the sensor as it passed Ronaldo’s head.
