These are 4 reasons why the Portugal national team is my favorite football team, especially at Euro 2020

Look Consistent

In the last few UEFA tournaments, Portugal appeared stable. After winning the 2016 European Cup, the Portuguese national team won the 2018-2019 UEFA Nations League (UNL) A. The record shows Portugal is no stranger to the title.

Inner Troops

Portugal national team has a deep squad. Take the winger position for example. There are some fast players like Diogo Jota, Pedro Goncalves, Goncalo Cuedes to Bernardo Silva.

Not to mention if you include Cristiano Ronaldo who plays as a winger. So, get ready to face Portugal at Euro 2020.

Combination of Young and Senior Players

The Portugal squad combines young and senior players. Take the example at the heart of defense. 24-year-old Ruben Dias will be paired with Pepe Lima (38).

Likewise on the front lines. 36-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo will be supported by young players like Joao Felix to Pedro Goncalves.

Stars in Midfield

Portugal was awarded a star player in midfield. Besides Bruno Fernandes, there are Sergio Oliveira, Ruben Neves to the best young player of 2016, Renato Sanches.

The presence of the name above is guaranteed to make the coach of the Portuguese national team, Fernando Santos dizzy. However, the dizziness referred to here is a positive thing, where Fernando Santos has difficulty choosing players

Cristiano Ronaldo is the top scorer in the Italian League 2020-2021 with 29 goals. Meanwhile, Andre Silva (Eintracht Frankfurt) became the runner-up top scorer of the German League 2020-2021 with 28 goals. So can you come out as champion of Euro 2020, Portugal?
