Portugal’s national team coach, Roberto Martinez, has announced the formation for their upcoming match against Iceland in the 2024 European Nations Cup qualifiers. The match is scheduled to take place today, Tuesday, at 10:15 p.m. in Germany.
The Portugal national team will start the match with the following formation: Diogo Costa as the goalkeeper, with Dalot, Pepe, Ruben Diaz, and Joao Cancelo in defense. The midfielders will be Danilo, Ruben Neves, and Bruno Fernandes, while the attacking trio will consist of Bernardo Silva, Liao, and Cristiano Ronaldo.
The Portuguese team aims to secure a victory in this match to continue their recent good results and qualify for the European Nations Cup finals. Currently, Portugal is at the top of the group standings with 9 points, having won all three of their previous matches. Slovakia is in second place with 7 points, while Iceland is in fifth place with 3 points.
On the other hand, the Iceland national team enters the match with the goal of surprising Portugal and achieving a victory. However, Iceland has only managed to win one match and suffered two defeats in the qualifiers so far.
This match holds special significance for Portuguese striker Cristiano Ronaldo, as he will be playing his 200th international match. Ronaldo, who is 38 years old, has made 199 appearances for the Portuguese national team. His first appearance for Portugal was in a 1-0 victory over Kazakhstan in an international friendly match in August 2003, under the coaching of Luiz Felipe Scolari.
Ronaldo, who currently plays for Saudi club Al-Nasr, participated in his 199th international match last Saturday in a 3-0 victory against Bosnia in the third round of the qualifiers. He even assisted a goal during the match. With 122 goals and 43 assists from 199 matches, Ronaldo holds the record for being the all-time top scorer for national teams. He has also surpassed Badr Al-Mutawa, the Kuwait national team player, who has 196 international matches.
All eyes will be on Ronaldo as he leads Portugal’s formation against Iceland in his historic 200th international match.
