Portugal HubPortugal's national team maintained the game against Colombia tied until the final stretch, much thanks to goalkeeper Diogo Costa. He made great saves in both the first and second half to keep the score at zero.
What happened?
Diogo Costa was one of the names contested in Portugal's call-up for this World Cup, but the few have been silencing critics. In a star-studded squad, he is the most regular player in the World Cup and a standout on the team.
Why is this important for Portugal?
At 26 years old, Diogo has been defending the Portuguese club since the youth categories and joined the professional team in 2018. He has his name linked to Chelsea in some speculation about the next European transfer window.
What comes next?
