Rabat – Portugal, already assured as the top spot in Group F, will look to maintain their winning momentum when they take on Euro 2024 debutant Georgia on Wednesday night at the Arena AufSchalke in Gelsenkirchen, Germany.
Fernando Santos’ side has been dominant so far, securing their place in the knockout stages with convincing victories over Czech Republic and Turkey.
Georgia, meanwhile, are chasing their first Euros win after drawing their second group game against the Czechs.
Portugal’s attacking prowess has been on full display. Bernardo Silva, fresh off his success with Manchester City, opened the scoring against Turkey, followed by a comical own goal that put Portugal firmly in control.
A win today would see Ronaldo mark his 50th appearance for Portugal at a major tournament, a remarkable feat for the legendary forward.
Despite qualification secured, Portugal are unlikely to underestimate Georgia. Santos’ men have lost just two of their last 17 internationals, showcasing their consistency.
For Georgia, this match represents a historic opportunity. After pushing Turkey close in their opener, they secured a valuable point against the Czechs.
Georgia’s task remains daunting. They likely need a win and favorable results elsewhere to progress as a best third-placed team.
This Wednesday’s encounter, only the second between the two nations, will be a chance for the Crusaders to etch their name further into Euro folklore.
