Portugal PM Luis Montenegro Backs Team After FIFA WC Exit
Portuguese Prime Minister Luis Montenegro: Following Portugal's narrow exit from the FIFA World Cup 2026 after a last-16 defeat against Spain, Portuguese Prime Minister Luis Montenegro has rallied behind the national team, expressing pride in their campaign and rallying support for the future.
In front of a sellout crowd of 70,649 at Dallas Stadium, reigning European champions Spain was held to a goalless first half, with both teams creating clear chances but failing to find the breakthrough.
It was near the end of extra time that, in an attacking move, Mikel Merino broke free and scored past Diogo Costa as Spain edged Portugal 1-0 in a tense Iberian derby to reach the quarterfinals, ending Cristiano Ronaldo's bid to lift football's biggest trophy.
