Spain defeats Denmark while Cristiano Ronaldo: Portugal won their third straight Nations League match on Saturday, defeating Poland 3-1 behind goals from Cristiano Ronaldo, while Denmark’s flawless start to the campaign was ended by European Champions Spain. In the 26th minute in Warsaw, Bruno Fernandes deftly glanced a cross from Ruben Neves back towards the midfielder for Manchester City, setting up a goal for Bernardo Silva to volley Portugal ahead.

With goals in each of Portugal’s first three Nations League games, the 39-year-old Ronaldo has now scored 133 goals for his country.
