Com goals of John Felix (17 minutes) and Gonçalo Ramos (54), the team guided by Jorge Jesus added the second triumph in other so many meetings in the competition in 2026/27, although the ‘inevitable’ Haaland (51) also ‘pointed the point’.

 

The Portuguese team thus leads the Group A4, with six points, ahead of the Norwegians (three) and Denmark (three), which won Wales (2-0), with a goal of Ben Davies (53) and a straight shot by Gustav Isaksen (66), at a meeting where the middle of the Porto Froholdt FC entered at 87 minutes to the place of Damsgaard and where the former Sporting Hjullmand fulfilled the 90.

In Group A1, Greece also leads with six points, after surprising Germany (1-0), in Augsburg, with a goal of Dimitrios Kourbelis (74), in a ‘renched’ match of representatives of the Portuguese I League: Vagiannidis (Sporting) and Pavlidis (Benfica) were holders, Ioannidis (Sporting) entered the place of Tetteh (59) and Ntoi (Rio Ave) did not leave the bank.

This means that Jürgen Klopp's Germany continues to win in the League of Nations at this time and, after the draw in the Netherlands (1-1), on the first journey, even added the first defeat under Liverpool's former coach.

The Netherlands, which won in Serbia (2-1) with an 'bis' of Meerding (30, 69), the first of great penalty, are second, with four points ahead of Germany (one) and the Serbs, who have not yet scored at this time.

In League B, the Republic of Ireland won Israel (3-0), in Group B3, and Austria isolated itself in command of the group by beating Kosovo (3-1).

In the League D was a day of equality, with Lithuania stalling at home with Azerbaijan (1-1) and Gibraltar and Andorra not going beyond a 0-0 at their meeting.

The League of Nations continues on Monday with the Belgium-France and Turkey-Italy matches, both from Group A1, in focus. Portugal returns to action on Thursday in Denmark.

Portugal (without Cristiano Ronaldo) ice Norway towards isolated leadership

At the meeting with the Norwegians ten years later, Portugal scored for João Félix and Gonçalo Ramos, who made a difference on a night that had a Haaland goal... and without Cristiano Ronaldo on the lawn.
