The Portuguese soccer team returns this Saturday to Portuguese soil, after the victory in Slovakia (1-0), but to the Algarve area, where it will begin to prepare for Monday’s duel with Luxembourg, to qualify for the Euro 2024.
After achieving their fifth victory in five days in Group J, the Portuguese delegation left Bratislava in the morning and continued their journey towards the Algarve, instead of returning to the City of Football, in Oeiras, their usual “home”. .
To the south, Portugal will begin to prepare for the clash with Luxembourg, currently second in the group, a match scheduled for Monday at the Algarve Stadium.
If they achieve another victory, in a match in which captain Cristiano Ronaldo will surely be out due to suspension, Roberto Martínez’s team will be even closer to qualifying for the next Euro Cup and could seal qualification in October, before the final window of November Games.
The team leads Group J, with 15 points, ahead of Slovakia and Luxembourg, who now share second place, with 10, while Bosnia-Herzegovina is fourth, with six. Iceland, with just three, is fifth and Liechtenstein is zero in last place.
The first two places in the group give direct access to the final phase of the Euro Cup, which will take place next year in Germany.
