Ronaldo returns in Portugal victory

Goncalo Guedes scored twice and Cristiano Ronaldo started as Portugal won 3-0 against Algeria in their final World Cup warm-up match in Lisbon on Thursday.

The 21-year-old gave the European champions a 17th-minute lead when he slotted home Bernardo Silva’s knock-down before Bruno Fernandes headed in a second before the break.

Fernandes’ goal was set up by captain Ronaldo, who was making his 150th appearance for his country and first since winning the Champions League final with Real Madrid, having sat out the friendlies against Tunisia and Belgium.
