Portugal will seek no revenge against Germany for their elimination in the quarter-finals of Euro 2008, when the two clash again in Group B on Saturday.
"I don't like using that term 'revenge' in football, because it's simply a football match, it isn't a war," said Ronaldo.
"We want to win, which is obvious, because we want to start the European Championship well, and we know that Germany are a great team, they have had great results in recent competitions.
"So they're opponents who we respect a lot, but we also have our potential, we have our strengths, and we will do everything to start on the right foot."
