Portugal has won two out of two games so far. They narrowly defeated the Czech Republic and then had an unexpectedly easy win against Turkey. Now, they are eagerly anticipating who their opponent will be in the round of 16.

However, Georgia, the team with the lowest rank at Euro 2024, must achieve a surprising victory in the tournament to secure the three points necessary for qualification. Turkey currently has three points, and the Czech Republic has one point.

Nevertheless, since Portugal has already secured the top spot in the group, this is the perfect opportunity to play against the national team. Roberto Martinez may decide to field a different lineup in order to give some important players a break.

Keep up with the most recent news and responses to Georgia against Portugal below, as well as any updates from the game between the Czech Republic and Turkey.

Georgia Leads Portugal 1-0 At Half-time

Portugal had a disappointing first half as none of the nine substitutions made any positive impact or showed they deserve to start in Frankfurt next week.

Georgia had a strong start and have been able to defend well and annoy the Selecao since the beginning of the game!

However, Ronaldo and his teammates have been lacking in attacking flair, showing little creativity on the field.

It's important to mention that if things stay the same, England would play against SLOVAKIA instead of the Netherlands in the next round.
