Roberto Martinez’s team showed an overwhelming performance against Sweden.
This morning, the Portuguese team faced Sweden in a series of friendly matches between countries.
Coach Roberto Martinez launched almost the strongest squad. Therefore, “European Selecao” easily overwhelmed their opponents and scored a goal to take the lead in the 24th minute thanks to Rafael Leao.
Less than 10 minutes later, Man City midfielder Matheus Nunes scored to help Portugal double the gap.
Before the first half ended, Bruno Fernandes was able to put his name on the scoreboard, thereby increasing the match score to 3-0.
Right after the break, the Swedish national team’s net shook again after Bruma’s goal.
But just 1 minute later, Viktor Gyökeres scored an honorable goal for the Nordic team after a decisive finish.
The 25-year-old striker is becoming the top target of many big clubs thanks to his excellent ability to sniff out goals.
However, he and his teammates soon conceded another goal when Portugal responded with a goal from Goncalo Ramos in the 61st minute.
Absolutely overwhelming the opponent, Portugal played somewhat subjectively. Therefore, they were penetrated by their opponents in the last minute of official competition.
However, the final result of 5-2 was enough to satisfy coach Roberto Martinez and European Selecao fans.
