Team News
Starting the finals as the outsiders, Portugal have already defied the odds to get this far, beating Germany at the Allianz Arena on Wednesday, coming from a goal down to win in dramatic fashion.
Francisco Conceicao’s stunning strike and a winner from Cristiano Ronaldo saw Portugal earn their first victory over Germany for a quarter of a century, and it now sets them up with the opportunity to become the first nation to win the Nations League twice, after first doing so in 2019.
Roberto Martinez’s men almost did not even make it this far, though, needing a late Francisco Trincao goal to force extra time in their quarter-final against Denmark, before getting over the line in the additional period.
The Portugal manager was under pressure after a disappointing Euros campaign that provided minimal promise, before a quarter-final exit to France.
Winning this competition should get the public back on side, and will serve as great preparation ahead of their World Cup qualifying campaign that gets underway in September, and will pit them against Hungary, Ireland and Armenia.
There is much excitement around two players in particular, and that is the first meeting of Ronaldo and Spain’s Lamine Yamal, with the two talismanic figures on either side being separated by 23 years.
Yamal was not even 18 months old when Ronaldo won his first Ballon d’Or, but that is the honour the young Spaniard is chasing, especially after another special performance in the semi-final win over France.
