A bruno Fernandes's absence is the main highlight of the final list of 23 players called by Jorge Jesus for the meeting of the second day of the League of Nations group phase, in which Portugal will have before Norway, from 7:45 p.m. this Sunday, at Ullevaal Stadion, in Oslo.
The captain of Manchester United, remember, was the holder, last Thursday, in the victory over Wales, at the José Alvalade Stadium, for 1-0, having given the place to Diogo Dalot, already in the final moments. However, he ended up not resisting the mandatory ‘cut’ carried out by the Spanish successor Roberto Martínez.
The national selector had, moreover, already left behind, at the traditional press conference forecasting the visit to the Scandinavians, that the average could ‘fall’ from its options, because of a “complicated problem” from a physical point of view, which ended up conditioning it, already at the reception to the British.
“ We need to know if Bruno can recover or not. He came in here with an injury from Manchester United and he's been playing three games playing with that pain. It was one of the factors for him not to have played at his level before Wales. I talked to him. I prefer not to risk Bruno in this game and have it clean and physical conditions for the game of Denmark”, he explained.
