Felix scored the second goal for Portugal and set up the third for Rafael Leao, after Cristiano Ronaldo opened the team’s doors.

Al-Jazeera Net was among those in attendance and Felix said, in response to a question about his first World Cup goal: “Scoring in my first World Cup match was a childhood dream come true. I feel very comfortable and happy. I always try to help the club, and here is my country’s national team. People think it makes things easy (about my team on the pitch) and it’s not real. I always do my job and I do my best to make our fans happy.β

The Atletico Madrid forward described the goal at the World Cup: “It’s a moment of great joy. I just remember my family and friends. I thought about them. I thought to myself, my mother must have had a stroke I dedicate the goal to all of them. All the teams in the World Cup are strong and there are no easy games.” But we have to make things easy.”
