​EURO2016: Nani sure Ronaldo has found Portugal form

Nani has backed Cristiano Ronaldo to fire Portugal into the latter stages of Euro 2016 ahead of their last 16 clash with Croatia.

Ronaldo found his scoring touch with two goals in a 3-3 draw with Hungary to secure a place in the last 16 against Croatia.

"Everyone knows Cristiano and what he can do at any time, in any minute in a game. I am 100 per cent sure he will go on and score more goals now," Nani told reporters in France.

"No one can say anything against him. He is a fantastic player. He showed it again against Hungary when everyone was talking about him - he has shut them all up now.

"I think Cristiano (Ronaldo) has always been there, always playing well for us throughout the tournament."
