🚨Matheus Cunha shows class by giving respect and support to the Japan players after their last-minute defeat. ♥️🇧🇷
A great gesture from Cunha after the final whistle. 👏🔥
In 1997, *The Simpsons* predicted that the final of the 2026 FIFA World Cuo hosted by the United States, Canada, and Mexico would pit Portugal against Mexico, with Mexico winning thanks to their fans; interestingly, Portugal and Mexico cannot face each other until the final
Depuis 2010, le Portugal a été éliminé à chaque fois qu’il a porté son maillot extérieur en match à élimination directe de Coupe du Monde. 🇵🇹😳
2010 🆚 Espagne 🇪🇸 ❌
2018 🆚 Uruguay 🇺🇾 ❌
2022 🆚 Maroc 🇲🇦 ❌
L’heure est venu de briser la malédiction face à la Croatie. 😤
I think a lot of people are forgetting that Portugal literally faced the toughest teams in the World in their Nations League campaign
This was how Ronaldo was moving just an year ago against Germany
Ya pasaron unos días después de todo.
Tener la lesión más dura que un futbolista puede tener en uno de los partidos más importantes de mi país y haber terminado de esta manera sin poder acompañar a mis compañeros hasta el final en la cancha y sin dejar al país representado como se merece es algo que me va a quedar marcado para mi vida.
Tocar fondo me va hacer más fuerte en todo sentido, y siento que este es el caso.
Sin duda cuando la vida quiere que pares te lo hace saber de algún modo.
Está en mí sacar lo positivo de esto.
Triunfar en la vida es volver a empezar cada vez que uno cae.
Agradecido @Uruguay, @ManUtd_Es por estar a disposición desde el minuto que pasó.
También muchas gracias a mi familia, amigos y todos los mensajes de apoyo que he recibido en este tiempo.
Voy a volver más fuerte.
A few days have passed since everything happened.
Suffering the most serious injury a footballer can face in one of the most important matches in my country’s history, and seeing it end this way without being able to stay on the pitch and support my teammates until the final whistle, is something that will stay with me for the rest of my life.
Hitting rock bottom will make me stronger in every sense, and I truly believe that’s the case here.
Without a doubt, when life wants you to stop, it finds a way to let you know. It’s up to me to take the positives from this.
Success in life is about starting again every time you fall.
I’m incredibly grateful to @Uruguay and @ManUtd for being there for me from the moment it happened. A huge thank you as well to my family, my friends, and everyone who has sent me messages of support during this time.
I’ll be back stronger.
This team solves a lot of our problems
Bruno receives the ball 15 yards more forward
Ruben Neves allows full backs to push forward dropping as a 3
Ronaldo has a proper CF partner
Less pressure on Vitinha & Joao to avoid making riskier passes
Too late to try new things?
🚨𝗗𝗜𝗗 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗞𝗡𝗢𝗪: The only World Cup game Pelé ever lost was against Portugal on July 19th, 1966. 🇵🇹🇧🇷
The final of this World Cup will be on July 19th, exactly 60 years after that game. 😳
6 is the number of this Portugal team. 👀
🚨 Les similitudes entre l’Euro 2016 et le Mondial 2026 du Portugal 🇵🇹 sont assez folles. 😳
▫️ 1er match : nul 1-1
▫️ Cristiano Ronaldo termine la phase de groupes avec 2 buts
▫️ Qualification après un nul lors du dernier match
▫️ Premier adversaire en phase à élimination directe : la Croatie 🇭🇷
En 2016, la Selecão avait terminé son parcours face au pays hôte en finale. 👀🇲🇽
