Cristiano Ronaldo won the first battle in his bid to lead Portugal past Zlatan Ibrahimovic's Sweden in their World Cup playoff, but the contest between the two is still 90 minutes from a decision.

Ronaldo's diving header in the 82nd minute gave Portugal a precious 1-0 lead in Friday's first leg in Lisbon.

But Sweden defender Jonas Olsson says his teammate Ibrahimovic will be key in Tuesday's second leg in Solna in a match that will decide who goes to Brazil next year and who stays home.
