Ronaldo believes in Portugal's chances after Mourinho pep-talk

'Frustrated' Ronaldo believes Portugal still has chance after pep talk with Mourinho

Portugal captain Cristiano Ronaldo has said his Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho has told him that they can still go through the quarter finals following opening round 1-0 defeat to Germany on June 9.

Ronaldo said he was left frustrated after the game, as he believes Portugal at least deserved a draw from the game.

"I have spoken to Mourinho and he told me we must trust in ourselves for the next two games and believe we can still go through," The Sun quoted Ronaldo, as saying.

"Even my Real team-mate Mesut Ozil, who played for Germany, said we have a great team and have become very difficult to beat. I'm very frustrated, as we deserved at least a draw. But we can still reach the quarter-finals," he added.

"In Euro 2004 we lost the opening game and reached the final. We must remember that," he said. (ANI)
