Francisco Conceicao restores Portugal’s lead with a superb finish, curling a precise shot across goal and placing it neatly into the bottom-right corner. The young forward created the space brilliantly inside the box before executing with composure.

Earlier in the half, Cristiano Ronaldo was substituted in the 65th minute, making way for Gonçalo Ramos.

Score: Portugal 2–1 Nigeria

SECOND HALF

Among the most notable changes are the introductions of João Félix, Rúben Neves, and Bernardo Silva.

HALF-TIME

Score: Portugal 1-1 Nigeria

27' GOAL FOR NIGERIA!

Akor Adams levels the match for Nigeria after a defensive mistake from Diogo Dalot and the Portuguese back line.

The turnover, forced by Fisayo Dele-Bashiru, proved decisive as Nigeria capitalized on the error to draw level.

23' GOAL FOR PORTUGAL!

Pedro Neto breaks the deadlock with a composed finish from the heart of the box, placing a cross-shot into the left post. Excellent work from Roberto Martínez’s side, who capitalize on their momentum.

8' BIG CHANCE MISSED – CRISTIANO RONALDO

NIGERIA STARTING XI

The Super Eagles are set for kickoff and will also mark a special occasion, as Alex Iwobi makes his 100th appearance for the Nigerian national team, a milestone being celebrated by the squad before the match.

GOOD BYE AND SEE YOU IN USA!

Portugal will face Nigeria on Wednesday, June 10, in its final warm-up match before opening its campaign at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

The side managed by Roberto Martínez is putting the finishing touches on its preparations against the Super Eagles, a team that, despite failing to qualify for the tournament, remains a challenging opponent.

The match will be played at Estádio Dr. Magalhães Pessoa in Leiria, where Portugal will bid farewell to its supporters before departing for the United States.

THE NUMBERS ARE TALKING

Portugal will be aiming to enter the World Cup on a five-match unbeaten streak. The Selecao has not tasted defeat since its penultimate World Cup qualifying fixture against Republic of Ireland national football team in November 2025. 

Since then, Portugal has thrashed Armenia national football team 9-1 in competitive action before recording a scoreless draw against Mexico national football team and friendly victories over the United States men's national soccer team (2-0) and Chile national football team (2-1).

Remarkably, Portugal and Nigeria have met only once before. Their lone encounter came in a 2017 friendly, which Portugal won convincingly 4-0.
