Diogo Costa has been included among the 25 players called up by Roberto Martínez for the next two matches of the Portuguese national team, which will face Ireland (October 11, 19:45) and Hungary (October 14, 19:45) in the qualifiers for the World Championship.

With the Porto captain as the starting goalkeeper, Portugal is on a streak of five consecutive victories - including the one that secured the Nations League title - and is preparing to host the teams from Ireland and Hungary in rounds 3 and 4 of Group F of the European qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup.

In the first nine matches of the season for FC Porto, Diogo Costa won all, conceded only two goals and kept a clean sheet on seven occasions. The number 99 in blue and white has 38 caps for the national team and has just surpassed 200 games for the club that trained him.
