Portugal dropped the act. Starting Ronaldo missed all three shots and earned a very low rating. After the captain left the pitch, they scored two goals in a row to beat Chile.

At 01:45 AM Beijing time on June 7, a friendly match saw Portugal host Chile.

In the first half, Ronaldo scored from a one-on-one but it was ruled out for offside. During stoppage time, Leão and Iván Román fought and both received red cards, leaving the half 0-0. In the second half, Rúben Neves assisted Guedes to break the deadlock, and Bruno Fernandes scored a long-range goal to extend the lead. In stoppage time, Cepeda pulled one back with a long-range shot.

Ultimately, Portugal defeated Chile 2-1, securing a pre-World Cup friendly victory.

Portugal vs Chile,Martínez set up a 4-2-3-1 formation, with Ronaldo leading the line, Bruno Fernandes behind him, Conceição and Leão on the wings, Samú Costa and Bernardo Silva as double pivots, Semedo, Rúben Dias, Veiga, and Cancelo forming the back four, and José Sá in goal. The starting lineup was valued at €260 million., Chile, on the other hand, used a 4-4-2 formation with a starting lineup valued at €43.9 million, ranking near the bottom in South America and failing to qualify for the 2026 World Cup.

This match was originally expected to be very one-sided, but due to Ronaldo's presence, Portugal struggled in the first half. Ronaldo had three shots with only one on target and failed to score. He was substituted at halftime. After the match, Ronaldo received a very low rating of 6.4, the second-lowest among Portugal's starting eleven, only higher than Leão's 6.2 after his red card, meaning Ronaldo had the lowest rating among the non-sent-off starters.

Portugal also stopped pretending. After Ronaldo was substituted, they scored two consecutive goals and eventually won 2-1 against Chile. This shows that Portugal's biggest challenge in this World Cup is how to manage Ronaldo. If he starts and plays a leading role, Portugal's performance significantly declines. How Martínez handles Ronaldo in the World Cup will be one of the biggest talking points of the tournament.

Throughout the match,Portugal had 62% possession, with 18 shots, 8 on target; Chile had 11 shots, 4 on target..
