Match preview
Everyone remembers the last time these two countries faced off. Portugal locked horns with Sweden in the playoff for the 2014 World Cup, with a spot available to only one side.
It was a match hailed as Cristiano Ronaldo vs. Zlatan Ibrahimovic, with the three-time Ballon d’Or winner scoring three and the Swede scoring two. Ibra is no longer around, but Ronnie still terrorizes defenses.
The Real Madrid superstar has helped Fernando Santos’ crew win five of their last six games. Their World Cup qualifying campaign has been successful, scoring 19 goals in their last four games.
Their most recent game was a 3-0 win over Hungary. However, Cristiano could be rested for this friendly ahead of a demanding month of club football.
