The Portuguese national team, led by Roberto Martínez, faces Colombia in Miami, in one of the strongest games of the World Cup 2026 group stage. The last result of the team was a 1-1 draw with Congo DR, on June 17, 2026.

What's the challenge?

Colombia is a very good team, but Italian football legend Fabio Cannavaro, selector of Uzbekistan, sees the Portuguese team in 'equipazo' dynamics.

What's at stake?

The temperature in Miami is 30 degrees, and the stadium is open, which can be a challenge for the team. The logistics of the Portuguese Football Federation took precautions with the stage in Palm Beach, just over 100 kilometers away and with the same intense climate.

What's the expectation?

The team's eleven should be the same as the one that faced Uzbekistan, with Renato Veiga at risk of missing the next game if he receives a yellow card. The trip to the stadium is made in the afternoon, on a bus journey of about an hour.
