After the draw against Mexico, Portugal returned to action and beat the United States 2-0, with goals from Francisco Trincão and João Félix. Roberto Martínez’s side took the lead in the 37th minute, when the Sporting winger successfully finished off an attacking move by the Portuguese team, following a superb assist from Bruno Fernandes.
In the second half, the Portuguese national team extended their lead. João Félix scored in the 59th minute, securing a comfortable win and wrapping up the result. The match also served to give several players minutes in the final stage of preparation. Alongside Trincão, Gonçalo Inácio also started for the Seleção.
This was Portugal’s final match before the announcement of the final squad for the 2026 World Cup. Roberto Martínez is now expected to make his final decisions for the tournament, which will take place in North America. Pote was the only player not to feature at all during this training camp.
The World Cup will take place between 11 June and 19 July, and will be hosted by the United States, Canada and Mexico. Portugal go into the tournament with ambition after a preparation phase featuring several tests.
The National Team, under the management of Roberto Martínez, are in Group K, where they will face Uzbekistan, Colombia and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The opening match is scheduled for 17 June, against the Congolese side.
