Cristiano Ronaldo’s Seleção had a very good qualifying campaign, with 10 victories in 10 matches.
Portugal finished their Euro 2024 qualifiers in style. By winning its 10 matches and scoring 36 goals, Roberto Martinez’s team achieved a flawless performance, and presents itself as one of the favorites for the next competition organized by Germany.
Ronaldo 10 out of 10
The Seleção was supported by its stars, starting with Cristiano Ronaldo. The Portuguese captain has scored 10 goals in as many matches, including four doubles against Luxembourg, Liechtenstein, Bosnia-Herzegovina and Slovakia. Bruno Fernandes was also decisive with 6 goals scored and 8 assists.
The Portuguese defense was also solid. With only 2 goals conceded, the central hinge occupied by Ruben Dias proved impassable, while Joao Cancelo and Diogo Dalot were very efficient on the sides.
Portugal therefore had an exceptional qualifying campaign, and will be one of the teams to watch during Euro 2024. The five-time Ballon d’Or and his teammates will be keen to confirm their good form and win their third title continental, 8 years after their coronation in France during Euro 2016, and 5 years after the victory in the Nations League.
