The Portuguese media praised Manchester City’s Matheus Nunes for his performance in Portugal’s 5-2 victory over Sweden. Nunes, who was making just his 12th appearance for his national team, scored a goal and impressed with his ability to drive forward with the ball. The press highlighted his impact on the game and suggested that he may have boosted his chances of making it to Euro 2024 with his performance.
Nunes’ strong showing against Sweden has raised questions about his role at Manchester City, where he has had limited playing time since joining the club. With Kevin De Bruyne’s fitness uncertain, there is speculation that Nunes could provide an alternative option in midfield. His close control and ability to drive from deep positions could be valuable assets for City, especially in the upcoming Premier League clash against Arsenal.
Portuguese publications such as Publico, Diario de Noticias, and RTP Sport all praised Nunes for his performance, highlighting his impact on the game and his importance in Portugal’s victory. The midfielder’s ability to progress with the ball and contribute to the team’s attacking play was noted by the media, with suggestions that he has made a strong case for inclusion in Portugal’s squad for Euro 2024. Overall, Nunes’ display has sparked discussions about his potential role at both the national team and club level.
