Bruno Fernandes Opens Up on High Hopes and Heartbreak After Portugal’s World Cup Exit
Bruno Fernandes has expressed his deep disappointment after Portugal’s early World Cup exit following a 1-0 loss to Spain in the round of 16. A stoppage-time goal from Mikel Merino ended Roberto Martínez’s reign as head coach and dashed Portugal’s title hopes. In his first comments since the defeat, the Manchester United captain thanked his teammates, the coaching staff and the nation’s supporters. He admitted the squad’s quality and unity had raised his expectations for a deeper run in the tournament.
