Joao Cancel goes on doing merits with Portugal so that the FC Barcelona try to negotiate again his cession with the Mancehster City. In front of Slovenia (0-0, 3-0 p.), the already ex side culé played 117 minutes to a very high level, contributing a lot in attack like right side, but fulfilling also in defence. In total, the one of Barreiro completed 6 dribblings in 8 attempts and 53 of 61 passes (81 %), in addition to completing 4 of 7 long passes.

The defender saw a yellow in the minute 107 and, on the end, left his place in the field to Nelson Semedo, visibly exhausted after an intense party. I cancel it outlined like one of the possible cobradores of Portugal in the batch of penaltis, but Roberto Martínez preferred to ensure putting to his best men to initiate.

The strategy could not go out him better, as so much Cristiano Ronaldo like Bruno Fernandes and Bernardo Silva converted in front of Jan Oblak, whereas Diogo Coast commissioned to stop the three shots eslovenos to seal the classification lusa. For 'CR7', the batch had a special flavour, taking revancha of the penalti that the goalkeeper of the Athletic cut across him in the extention. Joao, in fact, went one of the first in embracing to the captain after the penalti decisive of Bernardo.

Roberto Martínez finish of 'sentence' to Joao Félix in front of Slovenia

The one who did not have opportunity of redemption in Frankfurt was Joao Félix. The mediapunta went back to remain without playing in spite of treating of a party of 120 minutes, with which Roberto Martínez seems 'sentence' definitively to the of Viseo in the Euro. The Spanish trainer decanted by Diogo Jota and Francisco Conceiçãor as only variants in the regular time, whereas in the lengthen ingresaron Semedo and Rúben Neves, two variants thinking in the penaltis.

For the moment, the '11' luso only had minutes in front of Georgia (2-0), a meeting where could not do too much to avoid the surprising defeat of his selection, although it played the 90'. The Friday, Portugal will look for the pass to 'semis' in front of France, a duel that can happen him bill regarding the physical wear suffered against Slovenia to the ones of Martínez. It will explain the one of Balaguer with Félix in front of 'them bleus'? In case of another extention, maybe the míster see forced to put it.
