Portugal's national team strategist Fernando Santos spoke about the condition of forward Cristiano Ronaldo after a crushing victory against the Croatians. The veteran is suffering from an infection in his foot, caused by a bee sting. "I didn't give him a rest - if Cristiano had been in good shape, he could have started against the Croatians. He trained, feels a little better, and judging by the current situation, he will be ready to travel to Sweden. And then we will see," the specialist explained. "We are not rushing the situation, Ronaldo needs to recover from the infection." The Nations League match between the Swedes and Portuguese will be played on September 8.
