His side won their opening game 2-1 against Czech Republic.
After the game famous Youtube content creator Ishowspeed who is an ardent fan of the Portugal superstar has been often spotted watching his matches from the stadium.

Portugal wins it in added time
Portugal made a comeback after they were trailing in the game with the underdogs scoring first in the game through Lukas Provod who broke the deadlock in the 62nd minute of the game. A few minutes later an easy cross which was dealt well by the Czech goalkeeper hit his defender's leg while he punched the ball away and went in as an own goal. Diogo Jota scored another goal but his goal was ruled out because of their captain being offside in the first instance while he headed the ball.
Later on in the last two minutes of the added time when a cross from substitute Pedro Neto was met by Francisco Conceicao winning the game for the side. However, the favourites did not play as per the expectations and will be looking to improve from their mistakes for the next game against Turkey.
