Portugal will retain the European Championship title in 2021 following the postponement of Euro 2020 football. Cristiano Ronaldo will be the best scorer in the history of the game.

The team, led by Fernando Santos, already knew they would face the last two world champions, France and Germany, in the Euro 2020 Group F, then meet Hungary, the last member of the group, to overcome the play-offs and find the Portuguese team again after the previous European clash.

If the European title is subject to defense, this will not be the case with the League of Nations, as Portugal have been left out of the final four of the second edition of the competition in October 2021.

On the other hand, the 2021 World Cup will be the year of the European qualifiers for 2022, which, contrary to the norm, will be defined within eight months, taking into account the barriers to the outbreak of Kovid-19, from March to November, the Portuguese set to Serbia, the Republic of Ireland and the group of Luxembourg and Azerbaijan.

With the aim of securing an eighth presence in the finals of the World Championships, the next edition will take place in Qatar, with Portugal starting to qualify with a reception for the Azeri, and the group stage ending with a home dual on March 24 with Serbia on November 14.

FC Porto are also among the top 16 teams, but in the Champions League they qualified for the eighth place in the ‘Millionaire’ competition. The Dragons will measure against Cristiano Ronaldo’s Juventus in February (first quarter) and March (second date), and will enter 2021 in all competitions: Championship, League Cup, Portuguese Cup, ‘Champions’.
