Portugal defeated Japan, by 3-2, in a preparatory meeting for the World Cup, held this Wednesday night, at the Pavilhão Polidesportivo in Rio Maior.
The national team had several occasions to open the scoring in the first half, but the truth is that, at half-time, the null prevailed. . About five minutes later, Fábio Cecílio, after a delicious detail and a table with Afonso Jesus, tied the dispute.
The Japanese would return to the lead in the result, with Rafael Henmi, a Benfica player, shooting to count. However, in the last ten minutes, Portugal managed to reverse the scenario and confirm its superiority. Zicky Té and Bruno Coelho made the taste of the foot and completed the 3-2 final.
Jorge Braz’s commandos will return to action next Friday (7 pm), in a new preparatory meeting, this time against Venezuela, also in Rio Maior.
It should be remembered that Portugal is included in Group C of the World Cup in Lithuania – which will take place between September 12th and October 3rd, having as opponents Thailand, the Solomon Islands and Morocco. The first two in each group qualify for the round of 16.
