The Allianz Arena seems to be successful in Nuno Mendes. In the space of a few weeks, the left side of Paris Saint-Germain played two finals in the Bayern Munich lair for as many victories.
On May 31, he raised the Champions League with PSG after a wide success against Inter Milan (5-0). This Sunday, it was with Portugal that he triumphed again, beating Spain in the final of the League of Nations (2-2, 5-3 on penalties) in this same Bavarian setting.
A shared lucky charm
Asked about this amazing coincidence, the main interested party admitted that the Bavarian stadium seemed to bring luck. Not only to him, but also to his teammates from PSG and selection, João Neves and Vitinha, present during these two coronations.
“I was starting to get used to this stage, especially since this place brought me luck with Vitinha, João (Neves) and Gonçalo (Ramos)”slipped, with a smile, the defender of the red and blue in the mixed zone. It remains to be seen if Providence will continue to smile at him, the next time he will set foot in the Schlauchboot.
