S
evilla has a special color. La Cartuja hosts the big game, with permission from England-Germany, of the eighth of this European Championship: Belgium-Portugal. They face the undisputed leader of the FIFA rankings since 2018 against the current European champion and winner of the Nations League 2019.
Those of Roberto MartÃnez have had no luck after winning all three games in the group stage for the first time in their history and passing leaders to the round of 16. “They always say that you have to finish first to ensure the ‘easy’ path, but we had the most difficult draw. It already happened to us in 2018“Yannick Carrasco lamented.
The Red Devils’ roadmap since Bob’s arrival in 2016 is immaculate. They have 46 victories, nine draws and four defeats in 59 games, with 2.94 goals per game.
Portugal, on the other hand, passed third in the group of death after being virtually eliminated for 30 minutes on the last day. “The finals are not played, they are won. I trust this team. Otherwise I would take my suitcases to Seville “, confessed Fernando Santos, who already conquered Europe in 2016 after finishing third in the first phase.
Belgium has plenty of stickers: Lukaku, De Bruyne, Hazard, Carrasco … “The key is to realize that talent wins you a game, but does not make you successful in a big tournament“says Bob.
In Portugal, despite having great individuals, Ronaldo shines. Cristiano comes from scoring against Hungary, Germany and France and hopes to prolong his good moment to exorcise the devils. He is the top scorer of the Euro with five goals, has become the highest scorer (14) and the highest assistant (six) in the tournament, he has equaled Ali Daei (109) as the player with the most goals in the tournament. all-time national football…
A reign that, in the long term, could threaten the Belgian ‘9’. Lukaku, at 28 years old, has 63 goals! in 96 games. “I would like to have the dribbling and the way of shooting from Cristiano, but I think he could want my power and my aim“, he says.
