Real Madrid star Ronaldo: This Portugal team just average

Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo admits his Portugal team aren't good enough.

Portugal currently sit bottom of Group G with just a single point from two games, rescued by their dramatic late equaliser against the USA when Ronaldo crossed for team-mate Silvestre Varela to convert.

Ronaldo said: "Maybe we’re an average team. It would be a lie to say that we are a ‘top’ team."

"We have many limitations and suffer from injuries such as with Pepe (who was suspended) and (Fabio) Coentrao. This limits us a lot."

"We have a very limited team and we are not at the best level. This does not enable you to beat top teams."

"There are no miracles. We knew we would have a tough group, with perhaps teams better than us. I never thought we could be world champions, we have to be humble and know our level."

"I’m not a hypocrite, I never thought we could win the tournament."
