“This group is united and keen to win this competition,” Ronaldo told reporters at the Al Shahaniya Sports Club, according to ESPN. “Everybody wants to play, and this is something I like to see in a squad. The ambition is really high. … I am an ambitious player. I would love to win this World Cup. It would be magical, it would be spectacular, a dream.”
Portugal enters the contest as the heavy favorite with -245 odds, while Ghana walks in as a massive underdog at +750, according to DraftKings Sportsbook. Meanwhile, Ronaldo is favored amongst all players to score at any time within the game, with +120 odds and +330 to serve as the opening scorer.
