Cristiano Ronaldo insists Euro 2012 glory remains firmly in Portugal's sights following a disappointing 0-0 draw with Poland on Wednesday.An uninspired 90 minutes of football in Warsaw produced no goals in a contest that will not live long in the memory, but the Real Madrid star has played down the long-term impact of the result, and feels they are still on course to achieve success at this summer's showpiece.
