Watch the highlights of the friendly match between Portugal and Chile at the Estádio da Luz in Lisbon. This was a rematch of the 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup semi-final, which Chile won on penalties.
Portugal, who had qualified for the FIFA World Cup 2018 as the winners of the European zone Group B, avenged their defeat to Chile, scoring five goals and showcasing their attacking prowess. Cristiano Ronaldo opened the scoring in the 11th minute with a header from a cross by Joao Cancelo. He then doubled his tally in the 18th minute with a penalty after he was fouled by Enzo Roco.
Chile, who had failed to qualify for the World Cup after finishing sixth in the South American zone, were competitive and resilient, but they could not stop Portugal’s onslaught. They scored their first goal in the 32nd minute, when Alexis Sanchez converted a penalty after he was brought down by Bruno Alves.

Andre Silva scored the third goal in the 52nd minute with a low shot from the edge of the box, after a pass by Ronaldo. Goncalo Guedes scored the fourth goal in the 58th minute with a volley from a cross by Bernardo Silva. Ronaldo completed his hat-trick in the 76th minute with a free kick that went over the wall and into the top corner.
Chile scored their second goal in stoppage time, when Eduardo Vargas headed in a cross by Arturo Vidal, but it was too little too late.
Portugal secured a convincing 5-2 victory, which extended their unbeaten streak to 16 matches. Ronaldo was the star of the show, scoring three goals and assisting one more. Chile were left to rue their defensive mistakes and lack of creativity, as they missed out on the World Cup.
