Cristiano Ronaldo is set to lead Portugal in their crucial second group match at the European Championship against Turkey. Both teams come into the game with opening victories; Portugal triumphed over the Czech Republic 2-1, while Turkey defeated Georgia 3-1.

Kickoff is scheduled for 6 p.m. local time (1600 GMT) in Dortmund, where fans can expect an electrifying atmosphere. Ronaldo, who at 39 is as vital as ever under coach Roberto Martinez, is expected to start and captain the team yet again.

The game promises to be dynamic, with Turkey's strong attacking lineup possibly providing Ronaldo and his teammates with more spaces to exploit. Meanwhile, Turkish fans are expected to turn Dortmund's Westfalenstadion into a sea of red, adding to the match's intensity.
