Ronaldo: In football anything can happen

Mathematically it is possible, but in fact it is almost impossible,"he said. "But in football anything can happen."
Ronaldo was speaking after a pulsating 2-2 tie with the US, which left the team bottom of Group G with 1 point, behind Ghana on goal difference. Germany and the US both have four points. Ronaldo said that the public had held overly high expectations from Portugal given that the team only qualified for the World Cup thanks to a close victory over Sweden in the play-offs.
"We were not the favourites, we went to a play-off against Sweden, so to expect us to be world champions would be a fiction in my opinion,"he said. "We played good football but other countries have better teams than us."
