ZURICH — Cristiano Ronaldo scored with two stoppage-time headers and lifted Portugal to a stunning 2-1 win over Mohamed Salah-inspired Egypt in a friendly between World Cup-bound teams Friday. Salah seemed to have won the game with a 56th-minute shot worthy of his fast-rising star status from the edge of the Portugal penalty area. Ronaldo first rose unchallenged to score from Ricardo Quaresma’s left-flank cross in the second minute of time added on. Two minutes later, Ronaldo powered a header low into the right corner of the goal from Quaresma’s free kick on the right. Portugal plays the Netherlands on Monday in Geneva and Egypt stays in Zurich to face Greece on Tuesday.
