Rodrigo Mora has already previewed the Czech Republic–Portugal (Under-21) match, related to the qualification phase for Euro 2027, scheduled for this Tuesday at 5:00 PM. In a press conference, he began by saying the following:

«Yes, they are the toughest opponent in our group, but we are Portugal. I think we are the best team, but I believe the most important thing is to prove it on the field tomorrow. It will be a very balanced game, with many duels, but with our quality and our attitude as well, it will be a good game for us».

Regarding the Czech Republic, he highlighted:

«I think set-pieces are a strong point for them that we need to be aware of. They will also press high, which we are not so used to, but we had a whole week to train, so we are all aware of what will happen».

Mora has scored in every game of this qualifying phase, but he emphasizes the priority of the team. «I’m only here to help the group, and whenever I score, I’m happy, but the most important thing is indeed the 21 goals scored and especially the zero conceded. It means that the group is very supportive, we are all committed», he stated.

Regarding the national team's ambitions, he added:

«It’s a very good group, very united. The coach also tries to convey this idea that a strong and united group is necessary if we want to be European champions. If we continue on this path, I believe we will succeed».
