Goncalo Ramos (18, 51, 67), Pepe (34), Rafael Guerrero (56) and Rafael Leao (90 + 2) scored Portugal’s goals, while Switzerland’s only goal was in the 58th minute by Manuel Akanji.
In the quarter-finals, the Portuguese national team will face the Moroccan national team, which recorded a historic qualification by displacing the Spanish national team by penalty kicks 3-0 after the end of the match in its original and extra time with a goalless draw.
Important numbers:
Portugal qualified for the quarter-finals of the World Cup for the third time in its history after 2006 and 1966, ending a streak of 5 consecutive knockout matches without a win (D1 L4).
Switzerland failed to qualify in all of its 5 matches in the World Cup round of 16, conceding 6 goals in a tournament match for the second time after losing 5-7 against Austria in 1954.
At the age of 21 years and 169 days, Gonçalo Ramos is the second youngest Portuguese player to score in a World Cup after Cristiano Ronaldo at 21 years and 132 days in 2006. He is the first player to score a hat-trick in his first World Cup match since Miroslav Klose in 2002.
Gonçalo Ramos (21 years and 169 days) is the youngest player to score a World Cup hat-trick since Florian Albert (20 years and 261 days) for Hungary in 1962.
Bruno Fernandez contributed 5 goals in 3 matches at the 2022 World Cup (2 goals and 3 assists), the largest tally for a Portuguese player in one edition of the tournament since 1966 (Eusebio and Jose Torres 6).
Only Pele (against France in the 1958 World Cup) has scored a knockout hat-trick in a World Cup and was younger (17 years and 244 days) than Goncalo Ramos (21 years and 169 days).
At the age of 39 years and 289 days, Pepe became the oldest player to score a goal in the knockout stage – and the second oldest player to score in a World Cup after Roger Milla (42 years and 39 days).
Cristiano Ronaldo is for the first time since 2008 to be a substitute in a major tournament match with Portugal, also since against Switzerland – ending a run of 31 consecutive major tournament appearances as a starter.
