Sporting starter out of Portugal v Wales by Jorge Jesus's choice | OneFootball

Gonçalo Inácio and Fábio Silva are not among the 23 players chosen by Jorge Jesus for the match between Portugal and Wales. The clash is scheduled for this Thursday at 7:45 pm at the José Alvalade Stadium and marks the start of the Nations League.

The national team coach had 25 players available, but the match sheet only allows for 23, which meant two call-ups had to be left out. The choice fell on the Sporting defender and the Dortmund forward, who are therefore not options for tonight’s match.

In goal, Jorge Jesus will rely on Diogo Costa, Rui Silva and Samuel Soares. For the defensive sector, the selected players were Rúben Dias, Renato Veiga, Tomás Araújo, Nuno Mendes, João Cancelo, Diogo Dalot and Nuno Tavares.

In midfield, the options are Rúben Neves, Bruno Fernandes, Vitinha, João Neves, Bernardo Silva and João Palhinha. For the attack, the coach called up Cristiano Ronaldo, João Félix, Francisco Conceição, Rafael Leão, Francisco Trincão, Pedro Neto and Gonçalo Ramos.

. Gonçalo Inácio - who has been coming under criticism - and Fábio Silva are thus left out of Portugal’s first match in this edition of the Nations League.
