Budapest, Hungary – As World Cup qualification dey hot up, Portugal don land for Budapest ready to face Hungary on Tuesday night. Dis no be just any match, e be crucial for both teams wey dey chase dream of World Cup 2026.
Portugal start dis qualification campaign with better vibes after dem scatter Armenia for Yerevan, 5-0. Na so Cristiano Ronaldo collect two goals sharp sharp (as usual) and João Félix also shine wit his two goals. Dey dey light up di pitch like say na Christmas celebration! If you fit remember, last time wey both teams meet, Portugal dey always dey carry di day, no be joke.
As e be, Hungary dey find am hard since di last time dem dey see World Cup action. Dem don miss am since 1986, e be like say dem dey owe di cup one serious comeback. Dis last match, dem draw 2-2 against Republic of Ireland, but I fit tell you, di match no follow wetin dem plan o, as dem almost scatter when Roland Sallai collect red card.
Ronaldo go still lead di attack for Portugal, and we sabi say hin don score 140 international goals already. Na real legend we dey talk about here! I just dey wonder, go dis be di match wey e go make am 142? E go need am well well, because Hungary dey prepare to give am battle.
Manager Roberto Martinez get some plans up him sleeve. Him fit change lineup small as Bernardo Silva dey ready to join di mix again. Portugal want start dis qualification on a winning note, and with dem strong squad, e no go too hard for dem, abeg!
Hungry dem need to step up their game, especially with di absence of di adjuged Sallai. Dominik Szoboszlai, our brother wey dey shine for Liverpool, go need to show him skills to inspire di Magyars. If dem wan secure automatic qualification, na dis match dey crucial, make dem no waste am.
The match go happen for Puskás Aréna by 19:45 BST. E go dey interesting to see who go come out on top. As dem talk for Naija, we dey expect to see Portugal fly high. My prediction? Hungary 1-2 Portugal. Wetin you think?
