Portugal World Cup predicted lineup against Morocco (4-3-3)
GK: Diogo Costa – In the World Cup, the Vitor Baia fan has already advanced further than his hero.
RB: Diogo Dalot – Despite admitting that “Cancelo is a wonderful player,” Santos substituted the fullback who plays for the red side of Manchester against Switzerland.
CB: Pepe – The second-oldest male goal scorer at a World Cup is still three years away from Roger Milla’s absurd record of 42.
CB: Ruben Dias – It won’t be long before Dias captains the senior team, especially if the present captain is ignored. Dias is captain of Portugal’s Under-19s and Under-20s.
LB: Raphael Guerreiro – Guerreiro, who scored against Switzerland on Tuesday, had previously defeated Yassine Bounou of Morocco this year. He did so by scoring the opening goal in Borussia Dortmund’s 4-1 Champions League rout of Sevilla in October.
CM: Otavio – Muscular issues prevented Otavio from participating in the group stage, but since relocating to Portugal from Brazil when he was almost 26 years old, he has established himself as a talented scrapper.

CM: Bernardo Silva – The midfielder for Manchester City had his most successful Premier League season in
RW: Bruno Fernandes – Because of his preoccupation with the game, Juan Mata, a former colleague at Manchester United, called him “football sick.”
ST: Goncalo Ramos – More goals in the knockout phase were scored by the first player to score a hat-trick on his or her first appearance at a men’s World Cup since Miroslav Klose in 2002 than by Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo combined.
LW: Joao Felix – The Golden Boy winner for 2019 hasn’t had the kind of success one would anticipate from a player selected as the finest footballer under 21.
