Cristiano Ronaldo is ABSENT from Portugal training as Fernando Santos' side prepare for their final group stage match against South Korea after confirming qualification with 2-0 win over Uruguay

Cristiano Ronaldo was absent from Portugal training on Wednesday two days before their final group stage match in Qatar.

A brace from Bruno Fernandes already confirmed Portugal's qualification for the second round of the competition, and as a result Fernando Santos may look to rest some of his more important stars.

Reports suggest there is no physical issue with the former Manchester United forward, and that he is conducting individual training in the gym.
