Portugal’s 1-1 against Morocco

Diogo Costa

Indicated

Doorman having a bad day. He did not measure well a high start and En-Nesyri scored the goal that gave Morocco the victory. In the final minutes he kept Portugal alive with a save.

two

Diogo Dalot

Not productive

He wasted several arrivals from Portugal by his band with bad centers and bad decisions.

3

Pepe

Bad luck

He had the equalizing goal in the discount, but headed to a great position. He was left with a theatrical request for a house-brand penalty.

4

Ruben Dias

in a hurry

He suffered more than most expected in En-Nesyri and with his headed goal he was also pictured with Diogo Costa.

5

Raphael Guerreiro

shy

Fernando Santos needed more depth from him on the wing, but he didn’t push himself too far and soon gave up his place to Joao Cancelo.

6

Bernardo Silva

pointless

Great ball handling and little else. In the quarterfinals of a World Cup, more is expected from a poster player.

7

Ruben Neves

confused

Portugal’s first change. Thick on the ball and with poor tactical reading on the Moroccan counters.

8

otavio

precipitate

He did have a strength that others lacked, but was not deterred by the despair of his teammates.

9

Bruno Fernandes

Active

After a 1-0 draw with Morocco, he led Portugal’s attack, with a shot against the crossbar, a supposed penalty and a shot from the side that went close to the crossbar, but in the last half hour the his strength.

10

Goncalo Ramos

Handled

He finished his goal with his hat-trick against Switzerland. Although he moved well and created a couple of chances, this time he didn’t care. Sitting with Cristiano twice was too much for him.

Eleven

joao felix

Dangerous

Bono spoiled him with multiple saves in a game where he could have been the hero. One of the best in Portugal for his auction persistence.

12

Cristiano Ronaldo

Second

Again in return, his introduction did not improve Portugal’s attack, although he was seen to have a good drop shot on Joao Félix and a running shot discounted into the hands of Bono.

13

Joao will cancel

different

Another surprising substitution considering neither Dalot nor Guerreiro have dazzled the sides. His presence did add depth.

14

Raphael Leo

Directly

He created doubts in the Morocco defense with his runs down the wing, causing lateral fouls and corners.

fifteen

vitinha

Harmless

He offered no solutions to Portugal’s stalled attack despite his mobility.

16

Ricardo Horta

desperate

Another player with the goal of finding an equalizer in the last minutes, but with more heart than head is already impossible.
