Manchester United midfielder Bruno Fernandes assured that Morocco, Portugal’s rivals in the quarter-finals of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, are “a very competitive, very aggressive and very compact team.”
“He passed first in the group and that means something. Then they beat a team like Spain, which has great quality, which is hard to win, as we saw in our League of Nations game, and we have to be prepared,” he said.
“We are a team that is willing to suffer and control the game. We have to make the most of our qualities and abilities,” said Bruno Fernandes, who thought they did the same against Switzerland as in the previous games, regardless of the defeat against South Korea in the last match of the group stage, when they had already secured the Portuguese classification.
“We played a good game, we managed to take advantage of what we had prepared and the chances we had. We must keep it up, with this spirit, this mutual aid and this strength, because the collective will win more matches like this,” he stressed.
After noting that “they are very happy” with the performance and play curtailed by hat-trick author Gonçalo Ramos, he also highlighted Cristiano Ronaldo for how the substitution fit and considered that “the most important thing is the reaction that he gave when he went out on the field, that he gave his best” and that he is happy with the result and the standings.
“The goal is the same for everyone, be it Cristiano or anyone else, to get as far as possible,” added Bruno Fernandes, who assured that the Madeira striker is the “most famous athlete in the world”.
