Uruguay beat us in the final minute without our best player (one the best players in the world at that) - how do we suck? Where would Portugal be without Ronaldo?

Why is this an excuse. Do you think the players would be as fit during the tournament as players who had not been fasting for a month. Look at the goals conceded at the 90' minute.
The fasting was done for Allah
So, why did Allah not give them the energy for 90minutes
...Maybe, just Maybe, this whole religion thing is fake
You are really obsessed with this. Which religion is not fake in your opinion?
Rastafarianism

Would they have even qualified for the tournament without him and then the final? I remember his 2 goals against Hungary saving Portugal then he scored in the semis as well.

Also Portugal got completely dominated without Ronaldo in the final. France lost because of their incompetence, while Portugal fluked it.

The discussion is about why Egypt lost ONE game to Uruguay without their biggest star
My example is about how Portugal won ONE game without their biggest star.

Their win against France was a fluke. France should have won that match quite comfortably. We'll see what Portugal is made of should Ronaldo get injured again.
