Rúben Dias: "I have to emphasise our attitude, our commitment – Italy were very strong and dynamic – but we dug in and achieved our objective, to get in the final four tonight."

Portugalci, za koje u ovom natjecanju ne igra Cristiano Ronaldo, izdržali su sve napade Talijana, kojima je u ovom dvoboju igrala samo pobjeda. Iako je utakmica završila 0-0 bilo je dosta dobrog nogometa, a zanimljivo da je ovo tek treći remi ovih suparnika u čak 27 međusobnih ogleda. Portugalci imaju 7 bodova, Italija 5, a Poljska 1, a u zadnjem dvoboju Portugalci u utorak dočekuju Poljake.

FT Italy 0-0 Portugal. Portugal have won their Nations League group and will host the final four in Porto and Guimarães in June!
